What's onboard
Dining
Princess Cruises’ team of expert chefs take fresh, local ingredients and transform them into undeniably delicious dishes. Dining choices include classic Traditional Dining, freestyle Anytime Dining and dine as you like at the World Fresh Marketplace. Alternatively, for something a little more special, guests can choose from Alfredo’s Pizzeria for authentic Italian pizzas, Ocean Terrace for fresh and flavoursome seafood, Sabatini's Italian Trattoria for delicate Italian cuisine, the Crown Grill for steak and seafood, or Bistro Sur La Mer for a French bistro-style affair.
Guests celebrating a special occasion onboard, or even just wanting to celebrate their holiday with a luxurious treat, should dine at Chef’s Table Lumiere. This extravagant and exclusive dining event provides an intimate affair, designed for small groups to go behind the scenes with a galley tour, before enjoying hors d’ oeuvres, fine wines, and an exquisite multi-course meal.
Alternatively, if it’s casual you’re looking for, The Salty Dog Grill offers unfussy but tasty burgers and hotdogs, and the International Café is open 24-hours a day too, should you need a little pick-me-up snack at any time, day or night.
Entertainment
Guests can spend sea days and evenings in all manner of different ways depending on their mood or preferences. Experience a romantic evening on the top deck with Movies Under the Stars, before enjoying a quiet drink in one of the atmospheric lounges, such as Bellini’s cocktail bar, or a fascinating couple of hours learning about wine over a glass or two in the Wine Cellar. The Take 5 jazz lounge is also sure to be a hit, offering music from the roaring 20s, post-war, big band, and contemporary genres.
On the other hand, for those looking for something a little livelier, there is the Princess Theatre or Princess Live venue, which host exciting productions including interactive game shows and concerts. Other live entertainment can be found in the Vista Lounge and the Bandstand, where there are frequent musical performances.
An alternative way to spend an evening is in the casino, where you can get glammed up and try your luck on a range of different gambling games. You never know, you might leave your cruise having hit the jackpot!

Iglu Cruise customer reviews for Sky Princess
Lovely ship and excellent staff. Have to wait an age for service in some of the bars though! Drinks work out expensive with the added 18% on top, so if you like a drink, a package would probably be advisable. Cabin smaller than expected for the added cost but very comfortable and clean all the same. Cabin steward was very attentive. Food and entertainment were exceptional
All of the crew that we met were very friendly and helpful. It’s a beautiful ship with great entertainment.
Ship was great, rather crowded on sea days & due to weather conditions we had 4 days at sea which was a struggle. No stops at Spain or Portugal as these had to be cancelled due to rough weather. Too many wheel chairs so access to lifts & moving around ship was difficult as 3,500 passengers all indoors wasn’t pleasant. Found casino area full width of ship with smoking facilities completely ridiculous as everyday we had to pass through this area unless you went up and then down! Otherwise found staff, cleanliness, food, entertainment excellent.
This was an excellent cruise, 🚢 . From the embarkation to the disembarking at ports and back at Southampton was slick and easy. The facilities on board were as good as any 5* hotel. The food was definately 5* in all restaurants we used and there were some amazing waiters in the MDR. The entertainment on board was of the highest standard and the entertainment throughout the ship was non stop …. you could never say you were bored !(unless you wanted to be ). Our deluxe balcony cabin was lovely and lots of room for hanging clothes particularly like the “walk in wardrobe”. A great balcony with comfy chairs and stools. Without a doubt would highly recommend The Sky Princess.
