  • Join me as I walk through the beautiful Island Princess cruise ship. We sailed this ship from Fort Lauderdale to Los Angeles through the Panama Canal old locks on a 14-day route. We had a couple other stops that were enjoyable. This ship is smaller and has one main purpose of sailing the Panama Canal due to its specifications. PLEASE NOTE: I use the term "Centrum" in the video", the correct term for this is "Piazza" on Princess Ships. I apologize for any misunderstanding this may cause. If you have sailed on the Island Princess, please leave your comments below. Please LIKE and SUBSCRIBE to our channel for more of our adventures. Thanks for watching, see you all on the next one!

    Was the same as the Coral Princess but was remodeled removing many of the features that a lot of passengers had enjoyed. I believe that is why the Coral wasn't changed. We all have our preferences. We cruise Princess because they do not have an amusement park.

    Thank you for the wonderful video and excellent commentary. We have booked a cruise (Northern Europe ) for October 2023. We chose the “Plus” option and wondered where on the ship the specialty coffees are available. Are they served only in the Horizon Court Buffet or are they available in other places on the Island Princess? Also, is there a soft serve ice cream place on board? We enjoyed one on a previous Princess cruise on a different ship. Thanks again for all the great information.

    Hi! Great video! We have been on 6 Princess cruises but never on the Island Princess so I was thrilled to find your video! We will be on the Island Princess in October for 2 weeks to Norway to see the Northern Lights. Super excited! One question: is there a Wheelhouse Bar on the ship? The deck plan shows one but I didn’t see it on the video. Thanks again!

    Great video tour, but I can tell you have been quite “Loyal to Royal” in the past - the term “Centrum” is actually copyrighted by Royal Caribbean Group for the Atriums on their ships. The term Princess use for their atriums is “The Piazza”

    • @asgoodasitgets1
      @asgoodasitgets1  Год назад +2

      Hello, We were at the Bordeaux MDR. It was ok. With all honesty, there were nights that we did not care for any of the menu selections (this is Princess-wide, not ship specific) so we ended up either at the Horizon Court or grabbing a burger at the Grill on the Sun deck. We were on in May for the PC route and did not have any issues with the AC in the room or around the ship. I hope this is not anything new as we are on the Island for almost 2 months this coming summer!

      Thanks for watching! Princess in general is an older crowd with just a few kids. My boy was the ONLY minor on the Island for our route, but the ladies in Camp Discovery were amazing! Our current cruise on the Emerald Princess has 18 of under 12 year old on board, but still an older crowd. There is a group of 13-17 that hangs out, but have been good in public. Happy Cruising!

      Great trip, you will enjoy it! There are fitness activities and other activities aboard and a schedule is in your stateroom daily. The theatre shows were lacking on our time aboard the Island Princess. There were a two comedians and one main headliner show with two other music shows, but nothing that stood out as impressive (unfortunately). We were never bored and had plenty to do even during sea days. Going through the locks was an all-day adventure. The ports were fun and we enjoyed them. Happy Sailing!
