General Comments
Overall impression of the Coral Princess was very good.

I would have to really think about going again!

We enjoyed our side trips, but also thought they were a bit overpriced.

Considering what we paid overall, we were still being gouged to pay for little extras, such as water in our room ($3.00 per bottle).

If nothing else, at least this could have been offered free!
However, the food was excellent, but an overabundance of asian food in the 24-hr cafe. Dining room attendants were excellent. Very friendly, with a sense of humour.

Beds were comfortable.

Good weather throughout, with the exception of one day.

Beautiful ship!

Enjoyed everything very much.
But the Entertainment is lacking for sure! When we did go to the Princess Theatre, I always started falling asleep and had to leave & go back to my room. Certainly, there was nothing there to keep me awake.

On one evening of sea sickness I called down to the desk, and asked if they had anything available in terms of medication, and I was told I had to make my way down to the store to buy something. When I told them I was too sick to go, I was told there was no service for this to my room.

I think this is appalling.

My sister in the next cabin finally came to my rescue, with a medicated patch, and I began to recover very quickly. These should be available (without question) in each room.

Far too much pushing of pictures for high prices. Would it not be better to lower the price, and sell more pictures?
