Princess Cruises Previews the Fabulous Sun Princess

Princess is getting ready to launch an entirely new class of ships early next year. The Sun Princess is a huge, magnificent ship that will sail the Med starting in Feb. 2024, then move to the Caribbean next Fall from Ft. Lauderdale.

We attended a presentation from Princess management where they featured the new attractions of the ship. The theme of the ship is magnificent views! The most obvious example of that is the glass dome on the top deck. It’s a pool by day and an entertainment venue at night.

A first for Princess will be their new magic club ‘Spellbound’. It’s a lounge, bar and small theater where magicians will perform their craft. It’s modeled after the exclusive Magic Castle club in LA.

At long last Princess will offer a ‘ship within a ship’ concept. Long a part of NCL (Haven) and MSC (Yacht Club). It will be called the Reserve Collection. Like its competitors it will offer separate cabins with their own private bar and restaurant. Also, a separate Sanctuary pool is a part of it. Long overdue for Princess. The cabins are unique as well. They will essentially have two verandas per cabin. In between the veranda and the cabin is a cabana section that acts as an additional outdoor space. Very unique indeed!

“The cabana is like a bonus room that can be opened up from both sides — either extending the size of the interior part of the room or extending the balcony space.”

Looks like a ship that will be hugely popular among Princess fans. One we’d like to try soon!
