Signature touches on voyages of discovery to fascinating destinations
Coral Princess, with more than 700 balcony staterooms, was custom built to navigate the historic Panama Canal. Be sure to try the Bayou Café and Steakhouse, which features New Orleans-inspired Cajun and Creole cuisine, join friends for cocktails and Movies Under the Stars® by the pool or try some decadent treats at the International Café.
The service is wonderful. The food is good but there could be more ethnic varieties. The buffet is small, and we were disappointed with the offerings. There are plenty of games and other family activities. None of the shows in the Princess Theater appealed to us so we didn’t attend any of them. The Laugh Lounge featured several very talented comedians. We enjoyed the Lotus pool, which is the covered one. We like that the pool has actual stairs for easy entry and exit. That is very important to the elderly and people with difficulty using a ladder. The Lotus pool also has tables and chairs for playing games and eating while still being near other people. We like the library, which is very peaceful, with an ocean view. The Game Room, next to the library, is large enough to accommodate several groups. There is a large selection of games and puzzles for those who don’t bring their own. We spent one day at the Sanctuary. It was very comfortable and we were offered food and beverages several times. The International Cafe is not centrally located near the Atrium, but is near the casino. The sandwiches and desserts are of good quality and there are several choices of breads and fillings. There, we discovered the Pizza Muffin, which is absolutely wonderful. In the Bordeaux Dining Room, our servers, Enrique, Komang and Supra were fantastic and very funny. The OceanNow service performed well. The embarkation and disembarkation processes were very smooth and quick. We don’t go to the port until two hours after the process begins so we never have to wait. The beds on Princess are very comfortable. We didn’t like the Atrium on the Coral. We much prefer the larger Piazza such as the one on the Enchanted Princess. The Atrium is very small, and there is no space for gatherings, people watching while having cocktails, or dancing. Dancing is available in the Wheelhouse Lounge as well as other places, but it just isn’t as fun there.
There were seven in our group. We used the Princess shuttle to and from ship and airport. We flew in the day before and took a hotel shuttle from the airport. The morning of the cruise, we took the (free) hotel shuttle back to the airport. If it had only been two or four we probably would have used Uber or a cab. Embarkation was a breeze. When we boarded the shuttle from the airport, they checked our luggage so we didn't see it again until it was delivered to our cabin. We first had drinks and a sandwich, which were excellent. No problem getting a table in the International Cafe a bit after 11. Cabins were ready around noon. Our standard balcony cabin was nice, mid-aft. Everything was spotless. Even though its an older ship, things have been well cared for. Our cabin attendant appeared shortly after we got to the cabin. He remained attentive throughout the cruise and did an outstanding job. We had early dining. Our group of 7 was in traditional dining so had the same waiters throughout the cruise. Their service was like stepping back in time 25 years. Very attentive and really paid attention to details. I cant say enough good about our waiter. Entertainment was very good. Three production shows, all different from what we saw six months ago on the Regal. Other entertainment was good as well. There was only one we didnt care for (an 80s screamer), but that is due to our taste. We went to a few games and trivia. Much of it dealt with 80s themes, and the younger people seemed to love it. It was fun to watch. Ports were good: Seattle, San Francisco, San Diego, San Pedro (LA), and Victoria BC. We did Princess excursions and they were all good. It was a nice mix of ports and sea days. There were some children on board, but they were very well behaved. In fact it was adults who cut in line, jumped ahead getting off buses, etc. Different culture than ours. I miss some of the old things like great lecture series that I'm sure cost too much now. But we never lacked for something to do. The service on this ship was the thing that really stood out. Many crew members seemed a bit older and this is their career, not just a temporary job. We would happily sail on Coral again.
From the moment you step aboard, we want you to feel welcomed and right at home. And with attentive service from a friendly staff that knows what hospitality means, you’ll find your Princess® ship truly is your home away from home.
