We did this cruise on the Crown last March and loved it. The itinerary was more important than the ship. We are probably some of the few that don’t find much to complain about. We’re on holidays and enjoying every second of it. Pull the plug and book it.

We just got off the Emerald Princess after going through the Panama Canal. Although a little dated and a little worn it is still a beautiful ship. You have to remember it is not a brand new ship. It was what we sailed on in 2011 for our first cruise. We ate breakfast every morning in the dining room and it was fantastic. Only ate in Buffet at lunch and dinner in the evening was between DaVinci and Botticelli. I have to say treated better in Botticelli far better. The maître de in DaVinci only said “Excellent choice” over and over. We did come down with Covid have way through our cruise. We self tested and contacted the medical centre. They were very helpful and called every day. Luckily we had a mild sickness. We were in quarantine for 5 days. Can’t say anything negative about our treatment. I find the menu to be more varied than ever.
