With over 20 dining venues, 200+ cocktails, and the most spacious staterooms in the Princess fleet, this 175,000-ton vessel redefines what a modern cruise should be. WHAT WE LOVED ABOUT STAR PRINCESS The dining program exceeded our expectations. Alfredo's Pizzeria serves the best pizza at sea, while specialty venues like The Catch by Rudi and the refreshed Sabatini's deliver restaurant-quality cuisine. The Butcher's Block by Dario offers an unmatched multi-course beef tasting experience, and Spellbound by Magic Castle creates one of the most immersive experiences anywhere at sea. The beverage program, curated by mixologist Rob Floyd, features thoughtfully crafted cocktails at every bar. From Good Spirits' global menu to the Tiramisu Collection at Bellini's, Star Princess offers sophisticated drink options that rival land-based establishments. The expanded Skydeck sports court on Deck 19 provides regulation pickleball courts, basketball, splash pad, and jogging track — all complimentary. Multiple pool areas, including the air-conditioned Dome solarium and intimate Wake View Terrace, ensure you'll find your perfect spot regardless of weather or crowd levels. Staterooms are genuinely spacious, with deluxe balcony cabins offering 235 square feet plus separate seating areas. Modern finishes, ample storage, and thoughtful outlet placement make these among the best accommodations on any cruise ship. WHERE STAR PRINCESS COULD IMPROVE While the new production shows Meridian and Illuminate represent improvements over older Princess productions, they don't quite match the spectacular entertainment on Royal Caribbean or Norwegian ships. The main theater shows are enjoyable but not groundbreaking. Star Princess focuses on refined experiences over thrilling attractions. If you're seeking waterslides, rock walls, or go-karts, this isn't your ship. But for travelers prioritizing exceptional dining, sophisticated bars, and adult-focused entertainment, Star Princess delivers exactly what Princess Cruises promises. IS STAR PRINCESS RIGHT FOR YOU? Star Princess works best for couples and groups seeking an upscale cruise experience without luxury pricing. The Princess Premier package, included with Sanctuary Collection staterooms, provides outstanding value by covering specialty dining, beverage packages, WiFi, and more. The ship sails year-round from Fort Lauderdale to the Caribbean, with Alaska sailings beginning in 2026. Whether you're a first-time Princess cruiser or loyal Captain's Circle member, Star Princess offers the most refined mega-ship experience in the Princess fleet. 0:00 How Does Star Princess Compare to the Competition 0:25 Really the Best Mega Ship? 0:55 Enhanced Skydeck 1:40 The Pool Decks on Star Princess 3:10 Star Princess Complimentary Diningzza at sea 7:30 Specialty Dining On Star Princess 10:15 Bars and Lounges 10:40 CO – The Princess Plus beverage package covers drinks up to $15; 13:00 Nightlife and Entertainment 15:50 Spellbound by Magic Castle 17:05 The Sanctuary Collection 18:40 Staterooms 20:20 How Does Star Princess Compare to the Competition ----TRENDING VIDEOS FROM EAT SLEEP CRUISE------ Best Cruises for Couples: https://youtu.be/fenNj5GmLdM The Cruise Rip-offs https://youtu.be/cjbKOLTVStQ Big Changes to NCL in 2025: https://youtu.be/F6H3Jp9_iPo Guide to NCL More at Sea: https://youtu.be/hKNpqwdUfg8 Join us on Social Media as we “Sea the World, One Port at a Time.” Instagram: https://instagram.com/EatSleepCruise Facebook: https://facebook.com/EatSleepCruise Twitter: https://twitter.com/EatSleepCruise TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@UCEWq5SMTt-0nSCQZLMhoFHA Pinterest: https://pinterest.com/EatSleepCruise #StarPrincess #PrincessCruises #StarPrincessReview #BestMegaShip #CruiseReview #PrincessCruisesReview #BestCruiseShip #CruiseShipReview #WorldsBestCruiseShip #TopRatedCruiseShip #CruiseLife #CruiseTravel
