Creator's Key Takeaways

The ship itself, it was clean as a whistle. We had absolutely no problems in our cabin, in the public spaces. Everything was absolutely immaculate.

I would definitely have the drinks package again even though I don't drink a lot because it covers a lot of other things.

The service from the staff was really really good. The staff were friendly. They were warm. They were engaging.

I would definitely say it was a nice ship. It was a very nice ship.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Wash your hands again after getting food at the buffet before you start eating to avoid germs from tongs.
Consider booking the Princess Plus drinks package even if you aren't a big drinker as it offers good value and covers other items.
