The next generation of Princess® ships is here – Sun Princess® & Star Princess®.

Climb on board Princess’ two newest ships, Sun Princess® and Star Princess®. Part of the new Sphere Class of ships, these two vessels boast all of your old favorites, reimagined to be even better than ever – sweeping views, captivating shows, and mouthwatering dishes are just the beginning. So, what are you waiting for? It’s time to book the cruise vacation of your dreams!

The (Tip)Top-Deck
Much of the fun on Sun Princess® and Star Princess® can be found on the top decks. Officially known as Park19, decks 19, 20, and 21 are a seafaring wonderland of activity. Go on a controlled hang-gliding adventure on the Sea Breeze Rollglider®, get a different perspective of the world below while leaning against the Infinite Horizon tilt walls, or test your climbing skills on The Coastal Climb before sliding all the way back down. It’s easy enough to spend an entire sea day up on these game-changing top decks.
The Serene Spa
For the first time ever, Princess’ famed Lotus Spa® now has two stories of relaxation. Old classics, like the Enclave® thermal suite, are still around, alongside new treatments. Take some time for yourself in the peaceful salt room or the muscle-loosening aromatic steam room. Before you know it, you’ll feel like your best, most refreshed self.

The Finest of Dining Options
Between the hang gliding, rock climbing, and spa pampering, you’ll need to refuel your energy for even more onboard fun. Luckily, the Sphere Class ships are equipped with new and improved dining options. Love by Britto lives up to its name with a romantic seven-course prix fixe menu featuring delicacies like lobster and caviar, champagne pearls and truffles. The Catch by Rudi is a haven for seafood lovers with its broils, bakes, and bisques, while The Butcher’s Block by Dario is a family-style carnivore’s paradise.
And let’s not forget to mention the fan favorites that have stuck around through each Princess Cruises® iteration. Crown GrillSM is still serving up the juiciest steaks at sea, now with an open theater-style kitchen, and Sabatini’sSM Italian Trattoria’s pastas are always sure to please. On the Sun Princess® in particular, sample sushi created by sushi master and James Beard Award honoree, Makoto Okuwa.

The Edge of Entertainment
No Princess cruise would be complete without some next-level entertainment. Each onboard venue has been constructed to best present a specific style of show. Marvel at The Dome on the top deck, a glass-enclosed structure featuring contemporary acrobatic performances created in partnership with the renowned Cirque Éloize. If conjuring and card tricks are more your style, venture to Spellbound by Magic Castle, a Victorian-themed bar that hosts talented magicians nearly every night. Or take a seat at the shapeshifting Princess Arena, which alters its set-up into whatever format best suits the performances – from captivating Broadway-style musicals to comedy shows that’ll have you crying of laughter.
