Life On-Board
Throughout your cruise, whether you love activity or crave tranquility, Princess offers everything you could need for a relaxed, rejuvenating retreat, including a wide variety of freshly prepared cuisine and innovative experiences all designed to help you escape completely.®
Dining
At Princess, we know you look forward to freshly prepared, delicious fare on your voyage. That is why the quality of our cuisine is so important to us. At any hour, wherever you go on your Princess ship, our chefs are busy baking, grilling and sautéing the ingredients of your next meal. Bread and pastries are baked fresh three times a day, and sauces are prepared by hand.
Variety is the spice of life, especially when it comes to dining. Whether you feel like a multi-course meal in a formal dining room or a hand-tossed pizza by the pool, Princess obliges your every mood. From elegant specialty restaurants to themed buffets on deck, the variety of venues and dining options is certain to satisfy you no matter the time of day.
Princess offers you the choice of Traditional Dining with fixed time and seating, or Anytime Dining with the flexibility to dine when and with whom you choose.
Traditional Dining: The classic cruise experience, allowing you to dine at set times with the same table mates and wait staff each evening.
Anytime Dining:* Dine with whom you want, when you choose with flexible Anytime Dining. Eat early with new friends one night, and enjoy a later evening dinner for just the two of you the next.
Both options offer menus featuring creatively-prepared appetizers, entrees and desserts that change each day of your voyage - as well as several healthy Lotus Spa selections.
