Dining Experience

Princess Cruises is famous for its partnership with celebrity chefs and the MedallionClass experience that enables effortless ordering anywhere on the ship. Dining includes the main dining rooms, Alfredo's Pizzeria, and the International Cafe, plus specialty venues like Crown Grill and Sabatini's Italian.

Entertainment & Activities

Princess features Movies Under the Stars on a massive poolside screen, Broadway-style production shows, and the Discovery at SEA partnership with the Discovery Channel. The MedallionClass wearable technology personalizes the entire experience from stateroom entry to drink delivery. With 18 decks to explore, there's always something new to discover.

Staterooms & Suites

Princess offers well-appointed staterooms with the Princess Luxury Bed in every cabin. Mini-suites provide extra living space, while full suites include balcony seating areas, walk-in closets, and Club Class dining privileges with priority restaurant seating. Grand Princess accommodates up to 2,600 guests.

Good to Know

This mid-size ship strikes a great balance between amenities and an uncrowded atmosphere. Consider a drink package or specialty dining package if you plan to dine outside the complimentary venues regularly.

"Our experience on Grand Princess was absolutely incredible. The ship is beautiful and well-maintained, and the ports of call were amazing. We booked all our excursions through Vacation Booker and saved a fortune compared to the cruise line prices."

"This was our third cruise on Grand Princess and it never disappoints. The staff is wonderful and the itinerary was perfect. We used Vacation Booker for a private snorkeling tour that was the highlight of the entire trip."

"First-time cruisers and we chose Grand Princess. The ship exceeded all expectations. We loved how easy it was to book our shore excursions in advance, and the return-to-ship guarantee gave us total peace of mind."
