Sky Princess Cruise Ship

Sky Princess: A Masterclass in Contemporary Elegance

Sky Princess stands out as a jewel of Princess Cruises’ modern Royal-class fleet, delivering an evolved layout that pairs dramatic, glass-walled vistas with a deeply refined atmosphere. The heart of the ship is its breathtaking European-style Piazza—an open, energetic hub featuring a grand spiral staircase and soaring glass elevators. Balancing "The Love Boat" heritage with the expectations of the modern traveler, Sky Princess offers a sophisticated yet high-energy environment that feels grand, elegant, and perfectly connected to the sea. Here is what guests can look forward to across the ship:

Pools & Relaxation: Water and sun are beautifully celebrated on Sky Princess. The ship features two main deep-water pools alongside the tranquil Retreat Pool—a dedicated, adults-only open-air sanctuary on the top deck perfect for a quiet afternoon. At the aft of the ship, guests can soak in the incredible hot tubs at the Wake View Bar, where the infinity-style views of the ship's wake drop straight off into the horizon for the ultimate scenic photo opportunity.

Bars & Lounges: Socializing is effortless on Sky Princess, thanks to an array of lively venues radiating from the Piazza. Good Spirits at Sea serves up artisan cocktails alongside the fascinating stories and local ingredients behind them, while Take Five offers a smooth, stylish jazz lounge environment celebrating the history of jazz with live trios and themed drinks. For the ultimate pre-dinner spot, Crooners Bar delivers a classic, high-energy 1960s-style piano bar vibe with an extensive, expert martini menu.

Kids & Teens: Families are well-cared for with the Camp Discovery youth centers. Developed in partnership with Discovery Channel™, these vibrant, age-specific clubs provide deeply engaging activities rather than standard babysitting. Younger children can dive into nature-themed crafts and science projects at The Treehouse and The Lodge, while teenagers have their own private sanctuary at The Beach House—a trendy, surf-themed lounge packed with video game tournaments, dance classes, and movie nights.

Sports & Activities: The top decks of Sky Princess prioritize active, open-air fun with stunning ocean backdrops. Fitness and sport come together at the Princess Sports Central complex, which features a full multi-purpose sports court perfect for basketball, volleyball, and morning pickleball matches. Guests can also enjoy a casual round of miniature golf at The Greens or hit the outdoor jogging track. For indoor workouts, the high-tech fitness center provides floor-to-ceiling panoramic windows, ensuring your treadmill run comes with an incredible view of the sea.

Shopping: The retail experience on Sky Princess feels like walking through an upscale duty-free boutique district. The Shops of Princess frame the bustling Piazza, offering exceptional, tax-free savings on luxury watches, fine jewelry, designer cosmetics, fragrances, and exclusive Princess-branded keepsakes. It is an inviting, elegant space to stroll, browse, and shop for a special souvenir on sea days.

The Lotus Spa: The Lotus Spa on Sky Princess is a magnificent retreat dedicated to total rejuvenation. It features The Enclave, Princess’s premier thermal suite, housing a dramatic hydrotherapy pool with cascading rain showers, heated stone beds, specialized water-mist sensory showers, and aromatic steam rooms. From classic deep-tissue massages to advanced medi-spa facial treatments, the spa is a tranquil oasis designed to completely melt away vacation stress.

Dining Delights: The dining on Sky Princess is a world-class culinary journey spanning casual, complimentary favorites and upscale, award-winning venues. The ship features three beautifully designed Main Dining Rooms (Soleil, Cielo, and Estrella), offering a rotating menu of daily fresh creations alongside flexible dining options. Guests can also indulge in signature Princess favorites like the Crown Grill for premium aged steaks, Sabatini’s Italian Trattoria for authentic handmade pastas, and The Catch by Rudi, a fantastic seafood specialty venue created by culinary icon Chef Rudi Sodamin.

Entertainment: Sky Princess elevates onboard entertainment with high-production value venues designed to dazzle. The state-of-the-art Princess Theater features original, Broadway-caliber musical reviews and headline comedians with flawless sightlines. For interactive fun, Princess Live! offers a vibrant television-studio-style lounge hosting daily game shows, live concerts, and trivia, while the top deck features the line's famous Movies Under the Stars® giant screen, complete with plush loungers, warm fleece blankets, and complimentary fresh popcorn.

The Sanctuary: The Sanctuary on Sky Princess is the ultimate adults-only, top-deck retreat. This premium, spa-like outdoor oasis is completely isolated from the busy pool decks, offering an exclusive environment of total tranquility. Guests can relax on ultra-plush loungers or reserve private Sanctuary Cabanas equipped with personal televisions and minibars. Attended by dedicated Serenity Stewards who provide chilled towels, refreshing fruit smoothies, and a light-bite menu right to your seat, it stands out as the most peaceful, luxurious real estate on the ship.

Why Choose the Sky Princess?

The Sky Princess is the ideal choice for travelers looking for a premium, highly refined cruise experience that beautifully balances elegant tradition with modern amenities. Utilizing the signature, effortless MedallionClass® technology, this ship represents a flawless sweet spot of upscale dining, spectacular nightlife, and deep destination focus without the overwhelming layout of an unmanageable mega-ship.

PROS:

    • Breathtaking Sea Views: The design of the Royal-class fleet maximizes glass, ensuring the Piazza, multi-story dining rooms, and expansive outer decks keep you constantly connected to the beautiful ocean scenery.

    • Flawless MedallionTech: From hands-free stateroom unlocking to having a poolside cocktail delivered straight to your lounge chair via the app, the onboard tech makes vacationing incredibly smooth.

    • Premium Adult Spaces: With the dedicated Retreat Pool, the massive Enclave thermal suite, and the exclusive Sanctuary, adults have ample, top-tier options to escape the crowds and completely unwind.

    • Spectacular Live Jazz: The addition of the Take Five lounge gives music lovers a dedicated, sophisticated nighttime venue that you won't find on older or competitor ships.

The Princess Casino: Located steps away from the Piazza, the Vegas-style Princess Casino offers a high-energy, sophisticated atmosphere for both casual gamers and seasoned high rollers. Packed with hundreds of modern slot machines, popular table games like blackjack, roulette, and Texas Hold 'Em, and regular guest tournaments, the casino provides an exciting nightlife anchor that stays vibrant deep into the night.

CONS:

    • Traditional Top Deck Layout: Travelers hoping for high-adrenaline top-deck features like waterslides, ropes courses, or surf simulators will not find them here; the focus is strictly on classic pools and relaxation.

    • Upcharge Venues: While standard dining is excellent, many of the ship’s most exciting culinary additions (like The Catch by Rudi or the Ocean Terrace Sushi Bar) require an extra specialty cover charge.

    • Large Ship Footprint: Carrying over 3,600 guests, it is a large vessel that can experience busier foot traffic in the World Fresh Marketplace buffet or the Piazza during formal nights and peak hours.

Choosing Your Fare: Standard, Plus, or Premier

Princess Cruises offers three ways to book, allowing you to customize your experience based on how much you want to be "all-inclusive."

  • Princess Standard: This is the base fare and is perfect for the "no-frills" traveler. It includes your accommodations, dining in the main dining rooms and buffet, and onboard entertainment. Anything extra—like Wi-Fi, drinks, or gratuities—is paid for individually as you go.

  • Princess Plus: This is the most popular choice for many cruisers. For a daily flat fee, you get a massive boost in value. It includes the Plus Beverage Package (covering drinks up to $15), unlimited Wi-Fi for one device, daily crew appreciation (gratuities), and even two "casual" specialty dining meals and two fitness classes.

  • Princess Premier: If you want the ultimate "white-glove" experience, Premier is the way to go. It includes everything in the Plus package but upgrades you to the Premier Beverage Package (drinks up to $20), Wi-Fi for up to four devices, and—most importantly—unlimited specialty dining. You also get a photo package and reserved seating in the Princess Arena for shows.
