Loved my deluxe balcony cabin! Great storage (wardrobe lights up when you open the doors - really useful) and floor lighting in the bathroom useful at night. Main dining hall was really nice and well spaced out - you weren't sitting on top of each other. Also enjoyed the Teppanyaki restaurant - something different and worth spending extra for. LOVED The Dome - so, so relaxing and easy to find at the rear of the ship. Also really liked the Atrium to hang around and listen to the buzz of activity. O'Malley’s is perfect for a spot of post dinner music and craic, and also I personally liked the casino (but my wallet didn't!) with a good selection of machines and tables. Sounds strange but a real practical highlight was the lift system - lots of waiting around normally but Sun Princess has a panel where you can select your floor, the display highlighted which lift you were to use, and then that lift took you directly to your floor - it was a wonderful time saver!

Great cabin with a large shower, comfy bed and huge TV. Dining wise Teppanyaki was the best - great food and entertainment from the chef. Alfredo's Pizzeria came a close second though. This was one of the casual dining options and the food was great and there was a good atmosphere as it was set around the Piazza. During sea days I loved spending time in the Dome. This was extremely relaxing and a place to get away from the busier places onboard the ship. The pool area was also a great place with lots of hot tubs, places to get snacks and food, and they also had entertainment on the giant screens around the pool. O'Malley's Irish bar was the place to be of an evening - great band along with a great atmosphere. Movies under the Stars was another great highlight where they played films and gave you blankets to keep warm. The Medallion and app were brilliant too to order drinks and even if you move they find you!

My balcony cabin was lovely and spacious - really comfy beds and great views from the balcony! My top restaurants were Alfredo's Pizzeria with their stunning, genuine Italian Pizza and The Eatery, a casual dining experience with exquisite food from around the world. During the day I loved the Pool Deck and the Dome. Both had great atmospheres with lots going on and a real holiday vibe. In the evenings I was always drawn to the Atrium where all the entertainment was and Irish Pub with a great Irish band. Sun Princess is so modern and fresh I think any kind of guest will have an amazing time!

I stayed in a Large Balcony and I was impressed straight away with the very modern decor. It was very spacious and lots of wardrobe space along with a spacious bathroom complete with a great powerful shower! Dining wise I loved Catch by Rudi and Teppanyaki. These were my favourite speciality restaurants. Catch by Rudi’s food and presentation was 10/10.! The Teppanyaki experience was fun and great food too. Princess Live was also fantastic entertainment. We went there during the day and played bingo and music quizzes while the Irish bar O'Malley's had a great duo singing each evening and the Piazza had hourly entertainment which then turned into a disco for dancing. It’s hard to pick one highlight so I’ll have to say the food quality, style of the cabins and the staff!
