I forgot to mention that the interior of the "Regal" is stunning. We thought the craftsmanship was elegant. It was built in Italy and the maiden voyage was in 2014.

We have cruised many times with Princess, most of them on the Royal or Regal. The only cruise we were not happy with was Panama Canal on the Caribbean Princess. It was one of the older ships, but they told us it had recently been refurbished. Maybe the public areas, but certainly not the cabins. We had tiles on the Bathroom floor sticking to our feet when getting out of the shower. Our Steward simply pressed them back into place, and they came out the next time we had wet feet! The mattress was horrible along with a "pillow top" mattress Pad. Not able to sleep on that at all. Finally our Steward came up with Bamboo rugs to put under the sheet and removed the Mattress pad completely. What a mess. We vowed never, ever to cruise on one of the "older" Ships. We have two cruises booked with Princess now, one on the Regal and one on the Brand New Sky Princess in 2020. We are very happy with the Royal and Regal and I'm sure we will love the Sky. The food and entertainment have always been great! Many times we cruise to the same places as we enjoy the on board lifestyle. We always cruise with friends which allows us to play cards on our days at Sea. It's a great way to take a Break from the busy lifestyle in The Villages!

Thumbs down Crown Princess

It was the "Crown Princess" which was such a terrible disappointment. Was going to go into detail about the many issues/problems but recognize that some posters use responses to release their uncontrolled anger and we do not have time for that. It is sad but true.
