Royal Princess is a Royal-class ship launched in 2013, tied for #7 in the Princess fleet by size, with 15 passenger decks and a 2024 refresh that modernized the Lotus Spa And Salon and updated the screen at Movie Under The Stars. Life onboard centers on The Piazza, an Italian-inspired atrium shared with Good Spirits, Vines Wine Bar, Sabatinis and Gelato. Steaks and aged beef come from Crown Grill, and the multi-tiered Princess Theater stages Broadway-style shows. Up top, the glass-enclosed Seawalk extends out over the side of the ship, and the Seaview Bar is cantilevered over the edge. Adults can slip away to The Sanctuary and the Retreat Pool, while kids have The Lodge At Camp Discovery and Tree House At Camp Discovery, and teens get the Beach House Teen Lounge.
With four sea days on this sailing, there's time for Princess Theater, Childrens Outdoor Play Area and Treatment Rooms.
