It’s our final day at sea on Crown Princess, and we’re making the most of it! 🌊🚢

We start the day with room service breakfast, coffee at the International Café, and check out a range of onboard activities (yes — even Jenga while the ship rocks!). Throughout the day, we explore what Crown Princess has to offer on a sea day, from relaxation to entertainment.

In the evening, we enjoy a delicious dinner at Crown Grill, and then we sit down to share our honest thoughts on Crown Princess and Princess Cruises overall. We talk about who this cruise line is perfect for, and what type of cruiser might enjoy it most.

Deb & Matt Chat on YT: Want a STUNNING Cruise Experience? Crown Princess Sydney Night Sailaway

Deb & Matt Chat on YT: Want a STUNNING Cruise Experience? Crown Princess Sydney Night Sailaway

by | Sep 19, 2025 | | 0 |

It’s Day 3 on Crown Princess, and today is a busy one! 🚢✨

We arrive in Sydney Harbour, and since this is a back-to-back cruise, we go through the turnaround process — disembarking, clearing customs, and re-boarding for the next leg. We also move into a new cabin and review the Premier Package we purchased for this segment.

Things take a twist when our DJI Pocket 3 camera dies, and Matt urgently leaves the ship to buy a replacement (and sneaks in some Sydney sightseeing along the way).

We wrap up this action-packed day with a stunning night-time sail away on Sydney Harbour followed by a delicious dinner at Sabatini’s Italian Trattoria.

Deb & Matt Chat on YT: What We Loved & Didn’t Love | Crown Princess Mini-Suite D301 Review

by | Sep 13, 2025 | | 0 |

In this video, we review our Mini-Suite Stateroom D301 on Crown Princess at the end of our first back-to-back segment (Brisbane → Sydney). 🚢✨

We’ve spent a couple of days in this cabin and share our honest thoughts on the good and the not-so-good — from storage and lighting to the bathroom setup and bed area.

If you’re considering booking a Mini-Suite on Crown Princess, this video will give you a real idea of what to expect.

Highlights include:
✔️ Plenty of storage space (great for longer cruises)
✔️ Strong shower water pressure
✔️ Comfortable layout and lighting
⚠️ Some quirks like limited power outlets near the bed and a fixed showerhead height

This was our first Princess cruise, and this cabin was home for the Brisbane to Sydney leg before moving to a different stateroom for the return trip.

It’s Day 2 at sea on Crown Princess as we cruise between Brisbane and Sydney. 🌊🚢

After a late night, we sleep in and head to the buffet for breakfast and lunch, and it doesn’t disappoint — gluten-free, sugar-free, vegan, and plenty of variety. Princess really know how to do buffets well compared to other lines we’ve sailed.

We also share some behind-the-scenes insight into how back-to-back cruises work on Princess, with turnaround day procedures, disembarkation tickets, and cabin moves explained.

This is a relaxing sea day full of good food, quiet ship vibes, and prepping for our next leg back to Brisbane!
