Ship Info

The Pacific Princess was acquired from now defunct Renaissance Cruises in 2002. When Renaissance Cruises went bankrupt, Princess bought 3 of their ships. One was renamed Pacific Princess (replacing the original Love Boat).

These ships are the smallest in the Princess fleet. There are pros and cons to small ships. The size affords access into some smaller ports without the use of a tender. There are less options for dining. It is not set up to have flexible dining, so there are 2 fixed time seatings for dinner.

She has 2 alternative restaurants The Sterling Steakhouse and Sabatini's. (both are very good) The main dining room is The Club Restaurant. There is also the Panorama Buffet, outdoor grill and pizza.

For entertainment, there is the Cabaret lounge which features 2 shows times a night with the ship's singers and dancers, comedians, solo singers, performers, illusionists etc. There is a casino and various other lounges.  There is a library, fitness center, spa, internet cafe, a pool and hot tubs.
