Dining onboard Sapphire Princess is as spectacular as can be found on any of Princess Cruise’s ships. Choose from traditional set dining in the International Dining Room or the personal choice dining option with the Anytime Dining restaurants. Treat yourself to Princess Cruise’s signature restaurant Sabitini's Italian Trattoria, or try out the Sterling Steakhouse for the finest steaks and freshest seafood.
For a quick bite, head to Horizon Court and take in the panoramic views from this fantastic venue, or check out the outdoor pizzeria and hamburger grill on the deck. Whatever your mood, Sapphire Princess has the perfect eatery for you.
Sapphire Princess offers a combination of elegant entertainment with the glamour of Broadway- inspired shows at the theatre, or other live performances such as cabaret at the Vista Lounge. Dress to impress at the Captain's cocktail party or sit back and enjoy the live music in the Wheelhouse bar each night. There’s even an onboard nightclub for anyone who doesn’t want their night to end early.
If your holiday spirit has got you feeling lucky, check out the ship’s casino and see if you can hit the jackpot on one of the many slot machines and games tables.
Princess Cruises have partnered up with well-known gin manufacturers Bombay Sapphire, to bring guests a bespoke new cocktail, the Sapphire Princess. Not only can guests order a glass of this extra-special drink onboard, but they can also learn how to make it while attending an exciting gin-tasting session. Available only on Sapphire Princess while she is based in Southampton, guests will have the opportunity to sample a range of different gins - both popular brands and some lesser known varieties - and learn about this tasty drink.
Treat yourself to an afternoon in the adult-only Asian inspired Lotus Spa for a selection of relaxing therapies and treatments or just to take in dip in the peaceful Lotus Pool. There is also a full beauty salon if some special holiday pampering is on the agenda.
For those looking to keep to their daily routine, or in need of burning off some of the incredible food, head to the state of the art fitness room. With the latest equipment and fully trained staff on call, there is everything you need to keep your fitness regime up, or even start a new one at sea. If you prefer to exercise in a group, there are various classes available, from yoga to spinning.
Why not try out one of Princess Cruises enrichment programs or pop into the Art Gallery and enjoy the fabulous pieces on show? The Kids and Teens centre offers children great activities and a place to escape. For your duty-free shopping, head into the Boutiques on sea days.
Facilities:Onboard Sapphire Princess, the dress code is both informal and formal, depending on the evening’s theme. Formal nights, such as the Captain's cocktail party, are often the highlight of the week while informal nights onboard are a smart casual dress code. On quiet evenings, where you don't fancy dressing for dinner,or you are tired after a day of shore excursions, you can head to the buffet restaurant.
Baltic Cruise was excellent. Loved that they went to Gdansk as it was charming and a complete surprise. Need to make Hop on Hop Off options clear - ie - which line is actually picking you up from the ship/ working with Princess Ship older but still good. Love the Rotunda area. Excursions expensive and need to be chosen selectively. Entertainment and food excellent.
A wonderful trip.
Good holiday. First time I have booked through Iglu Cruises but was very satisfied with the booking and arrangements. Will certainly use Iglu in the future. Being an Elite passenger with Princess Cruises I was not disappointed. Everything went smoothly thanks to Iglu.
Very nice ship. Great deck to have a cabin on. Balcony was a good size but unfortunately the weather wasn't kind to us so we couldn't use it.
