I  just returned  to from  a 12 day   Mediterranean Princess Island Cruise that  had  the  worst food I  have  every  eaten

I  had severe  stomach  aches   and bloating  after  every meal  I ate

 I  will be  notifying  the National  Bboard  of  Health of  the Princess Cruises'  health food  violations

 

I  have been  other  cruises  with Royal Caribbean  and Celebrity Cruises) and have  never experienced  such  fatty  and spoiled  food/ dinners  that I had to suffer eating  while on  the Island Princess

 

I  went  on  all the  "off shore excursions" and  when  I  came back in the  evening  I  usually ate  at  the Horizon Court Buffet on the14th  floor.

All the  salads , cold  cuts, cheeses.  dressings  and  many of  the  entrees  had  been  prepared and left  sitting  without  refrigeration  from 12 noon - 12 AM  when  this buffet  closed

This  is  disgusting  and unacceptable!

 

I did  try  eating in  the main dinning room Bordeaux several times  and   every entree  I  tried eating  was  either  very  fatty, greasy  or not  fresh... I felt  sick after eating  any of your  dinners

Most  of the guests  on this  cruise felt  the  food  was  terrible

 

How  can you  feed  guests  on  the Princess Cruise line  food  that  was  so low  quality  and  gross?

 

I  am  not  going  to  pay   for an expensive  cruise and  not be  able  to eat acceptable  dinners

The bread  was hard as a rock... They  did  not even serve  real orange  juice!

Many  evenings  I  would go  back to my room and  eat a few  energy protein   bars  that  I had  brought  with me

 

The  food  servers , many whom  were  foreign  was often rude and inattentive

 

The gym  was pathetic, with only 2  benches, and not a lot of  exercise equipment. It was is a dark dimly lit  small room

 

The  other  issue  I have  is  the poor  judgement  of  the  Captain , let on board 118 Syrian  Refugees trying to  escape

The Princes Cruise line  was  en route to  Istanbul  when  it got a  distress call  from a stranded  sailing ship   with  supposedly

25  Great Nationals  ( The  Captain lied..it was  118  Refugees  from Syria  trying  to  escape)

The Greek Coast guard ship was  closer to  this sail boat then the  Princess  Island. but asked  for  the Princess to  pick up  these people

One  of  the  Staff  employees told me  that I should  stay in my room in case  there was any "problems"

( I  was  very worried, so  I   sent texts  to  my family and  friends  notifying  them of  this  stressful  situation.

After  118  Syrian Refugees   boarded  the Island Princess  , they  began  to  push , shove  and fight each  other  ( Most wore young men between 18-35) did  not want to leave  our ship

They wanted to  stay onboard.

Finally  the Greek Red Cross sent men  over to "convince" these Syrian  Refugees  to leave the Island Princess Cruise boat

I  have  videos  on my cell  phone  of these refugees  yelling  from the small dingy boats that were used  to   transport them off our  boat

 

I  am aware  of  Maritime  Law ,, but  in this day  and age  of  "Isis threats and terrorism, it potentially jeopardized  and risked  the lives  of  thousands  of passengers  aboard  the Island Princess!!

What if one  of those Syrian Refugees  had a  bomb in his  knapsack?

 

In addition, this  picking of 118  Syrian Refugees  created  a situation where  the Captain  was  not able  to stop off at Istanbul the  next port we were  going  to visit

99% of  the  people  that booked this  particular  cruise voyage  did  so because  it included  visiting 'Istanbul'

 

 I  high recommend  anyone  thinking  of  taking a cruise  to  avoid  the "Princess Cruise Line"

 

Buyer beware!
