Grand Princess is a Grand-class ship, the #15 ship in the Princess fleet by size, built in 1998 and back from an April 2025 dry dock in Portland, Oregon that added automatic doors and ramps to public venues. Life centers on The Piazza, an Italian-inspired atrium shared with Good Spirits, Vines Wine Bar and International Cafe. For dinner beyond the main dining rooms there's the Crown Grill steakhouse and Sabatinis, an Italian trattoria, then Broadway-style shows in the Princess Theater or live piano at Crooners Bar. Up top, Movie Under The Stars screens films poolside, the Lotus Pool is a retreat for adults under a retractable glass roof, and The Sanctuary offers a quiet, spa-inspired escape. Kids head to The Lodge At Camp Discovery and the Tree House At Camp Discovery.

With four sea days on this sailing, there's time for Lotus Spa, Vista Lounge and The Piazza.
