Diamond Princess is a Grand-class ship built in 2004, tied for #9 in the Princess fleet by size, with 14 passenger decks and a 2020 refurbishment that brought MedallionClass digital services shipwide. Life centers on The Piazza, an Italian-inspired atrium with live entertainment. The Princess Theater stages Broadway-style shows, and Movie Under The Stars screens films poolside. Dinner ranges from the Southwestern Santa Fe Dining Room to the Crown Grill steakhouse and Brazilian rodizio at Churrascaria Grill, while Sabatinis and Kai Sushi sit together aft on deck 7. Adults can slip away to the glass-roofed Lotus Pool or The Sanctuary, kids and teens have Camp Discovery and the Beach House Teen Lounge, and Skywalkers Nightclub keeps a neon-lit dance floor going high above the sea.
With one sea day on this sailing, there's time for Princess Links, Sabatinis and Good Spirits.
