P&O or Princess?

Reviewed By: Jones, Denbigh on 27th Aug 2008
Cruise Line: Princess Cruises Times cruised before: 6-10
Cruise Ship: Sea Princess Sailed: July, 2007
Destination: Mediterranean Age: 36-45
Having been on quite a few P&O cruises we decided to have a change with Princess. Not a big change I know, especially since the ship we chose was the sister ship of the Oceana, on whic we had sailed 3 times. Were we glad we changed -not really. One of the main reasons we choose P&O is because of the kids programme. Princess were simply not in the same league in this regard. From captains coketails and fancy dress with P&O to Playstation and more Playstation with Princess. The Youth Staff were less interested by far - a lesson learned!

Food was less interesting. Beef, steak, beef, burger, steak...........

Everything else pretty much the same. Back to P&O next time though

We totally agree, Princess kids clubs is certainly not in the same league as P & O. We have sailed 5 times with P & O and our daughter age 7 has really enjoyed the kids clubs. On Princess our daughter said that the kids club was the worse club she has been in. We had a lot of trouble encouraging her to go. Would we book with Princess again? No.....
