2. Speciality dining onboard Princess
It’s everyone’s favourite part of cruising – the food.
Princess Cruises is known for providing consistently beautiful dishes, with most ships featuring five fine dining options, making it the ultimate cruise line for foodies.
For a glass (or two… or three) of wine, the aptly named Vines is the place to be. Watch in awe as an endless selection of wine becomes available to you to purchase and taste.
There isn’t just wine, you can mix it up with fine Champagne, sparkling wines and regional offerings to take a piece of your Princess experience home with you. What makes it even better is the fact that a crafted selection of gourmet cuisine is served on a complimentary basis alongside any wine purchase.
So, tuck into some tapas and antipasti boards and let the flavours melt on your tongue, complemented by your wine purchase – can we go, please?
Sabatini’s Italian Trattoria is another standout fine dining restaurant reflecting the fine attention to detail that Italians take immense pride in, and for good reason.
Savour a Grana Padano Cheese Fondue and an Italian meats & olives platter for starters before experiencing the flavour explosion that is the roasted lamb tortelloni – careful, don’t dribble on your screen.
You can also dive into the world of pasta with a handmade pasta course and learn treasured family recipes to impress your friends at home.

3. Cruising for kids
Not only does Princess Cruises feature an impressive amount of speciality restaurants to please every type of fussy eater in the family, but the line also features family-friendly staterooms and a range of entertainment for every age.
For the little uns that are aged three to twelve, the fun never ends with Princess. Kids can make delicious cakes in the JrCHEF@Sea class and learn how to do some pretty impressive magic tricks, ready to bamboozle the whole family.
Kids will be running to play XBOX Kinect, Nintendo Wii and the PlayStation so they can get their technology fix at sea without cluttering up the precious suitcase space.
For the teens who simply want a place to chillax (as the kids say…right?), Princess has the perfect hangout spot – the beach house. Late-night film screenings, video game tournaments and sports competitions await, not to mention the Rock the Boat teens-only party where the mocktails will be flowing.
Beyond kids’ clubs and teen entertainment, Princess also brings exciting family favourite TV shows onboard, such as The Voice (of the Ocean), taking this talent show to the sea.
4. Movies Under The Stars
Sit back and reach the ultimate level of entertainment with Princess Cruises – relax your mind further by escaping to the world of cinema in an open-air poolside theatre.
In the evening you can enjoy Movies Under The Stars which boasts a massive screen – lucky you. So, watch your favourite classic film or perhaps go to a screening of a modern blockbuster, the choice is yours.
