Our family of 8 enjoyed this 11-day cruise round trip from San Francisco. The service was great and the staff was most attentive to our two young granddaughters. We passed a Disney ship, and I wondered what that would be like. Someone told me the service towards children was much better on Princess. I had to agree that our little granddaughters were treated so very well. We picked out excursions that were perfect for them, and had a blast. Each port also had a park, so we made a point of walking to one.

Pros: Fun ports, Clean Ship, Friendly & Caring Staff

Wow! Our cruise on the Ruby was above board on everything! Customer service was a TEN! It was obvious that management expected and gave excellent service to everyone. We brought our three year old grandson and he attended the Kids Club. He had so much fun that he would beg to go back. These ladies that took care of our children were obviously doing something right when a child can’t wait to return to their care. We came home thoroughly spoiled from a very grand cruise.

Pros: Top notch service

Cons: Rough seas

Drinks are better at the bars inside … not poolside. Lots of pool chairs with towels, but no bodies laying in them… makes for a difficult time on sea days.

Pros: Our room steward (Wendell) was wonderful!

Cons: Did not like the motion light in the cabin… want to turn it on and off as needed.

Right out of port the experience began. The food was wonderful and staff was excellent. The entire staff was attentive and wanted our vacation to be our best ever. Everyday we found a new place to have lunch or a cold beverage and the evening meals were as varied with every kind of food you wanted. Our cabin exceeded our expectations and the attendant was always available whenever needed. A great ship, a wonderful layout of shops, restaurants and bars and the friendliest crew on the ocean.

Pros: Great selection of everything

Cons: Can't think of any.
