Your floating resort

The magnificent Coral Princess is one of only two Princess ships that were custom-built to navigate the historic Panama Canal. From the moment you step aboard, you will feel welcomed and right at home. With Princess Medallion Class featuring the Ocean Medallion, you can experience a more personalised and hassle-free holiday, so you can do more of what you love.

Be sure to try the Bayou Cafe and Steakhouse, which features New Orleans-inspired Cajun and Creole cuisine, join friends for cocktails and Movies Under the Stars by the pool or try some decadent treats at the International Cafe. Ninety percent of her staterooms offer ocean views, with 700 balconies available.

Restaurants

Bordeaux

Bordeaux is one of Coral Princess's main dining rooms, serving chef-crafted international cuisine with modern plates and familiar classics. Find it on Plaza Deck 5, where breakfast, lunch on applicable days and dinner are served at your table.

Fancy flexibility? Choose walk-in dining, reserve a time, or opt for traditional early or late seating. Leave room for a Love Boat Dream or a traditional New York cheesecake. Smart Casual is the usual evening look, with Dress to Impress nights on some sailings.

image

Provence Dining Room

On Deck 6, Fiesta Deck, Provence is one of Coral Princess's two main dining rooms. You can settle in for table service at breakfast, lunch or dinner, choosing from chef-crafted modern and classic dishes created by an international culinary team.

This is Traditional Dining, so you dine at the same early or late seating with your own waiter throughout the cruise. Sample menus feature Red Wine Braised Short Ribs, and Smart Casual or Formal dress standards apply, with shoes required.

image

Sabatini's

For a proper Italian dinner, make your way to Sabatini’s on Deck 7. This trattoria-style speciality restaurant puts handmade pasta, authentic sauces and slow-braised dishes centre stage, with Tuscany very much invited to the table.

Begin with golden arancini, then save room for tiramisu served tableside. Gluten-free, vegetarian and pescatarian choices are available. It is dinner only and reservations are required, so book ahead.

image

Horizon Court

Horizon Court is your easygoing World Fresh Marketplace on Deck 14, where you can pick up globally inspired dishes without turning lunch into a formal occasion. Think fresh salads, regional specialities, meat and poultry, with pancakes waiting at breakfast.

Call in for breakfast, lunch, dinner or a late snack, then make room for made-from-scratch cakes, pies and pastries. Hours can vary by itinerary, so check your daily programme before plotting that post-show pudding.

image

Bayou Cafe & Steakhouse

New Orleans comes to Promenade Deck 7, with Cajun and Creole favourites sharing the bill with proper steakhouse plates. Start with N’Awlins crawfish bisque, then tackle chicken and chorizo jambalaya or a Porterhouse steak.

Live music and themed drinks bring a little Bayou spirit to dinner. Service runs from 5:30pm to 9:00pm, with lunch on selected days, though times can vary by itinerary.

image

Chef's Table

This intimate dinner experience brings around 10 to 12 guests together in the Main Dining Room, with the executive chef guiding you through an exclusive multicourse menu not served elsewhere on board.

Expect Champagne and hors d’oeuvres, seafood and wine pairings, plus the stories behind each course. Reservations are required and seating is limited, so book through Guest Services or while on board.

image

International Cafe

Just off the Piazza on Fiesta Deck 6, this 24-hour café keeps you well supplied from breakfast through to late night. Pick up pastries, parfaits, grilled panini, sandwiches, salads and desserts, then settle into a Piazza seat.

The food is complimentary, while speciality coffees and teas may cost extra. Handy when hunger refuses to keep restaurant hours.

image

Ultimate Balcony Dining

Your own balcony becomes the table, with dedicated waitstaff bringing a four-course dinner or a deluxe champagne breakfast straight to you. It is rather good for marking an occasion, or simply making a sea day feel suitably smug.

Dinner may include broiled cold-water lobster tails or filet of beef tenderloin Diane, while breakfast brings pastries, quiches, smoked salmon and fresh fruit. Menus can vary, and reservations are required, so arrange yours before sailing or onboard.

image

Reserve Collection Restaurant

Reserved for guests in Reserve Collection mini suites and full suites, this private area within the main dining room gives you international dishes from a gourmet, chef curated menu. Look out for the daily chef’s special.

You can dine to your own schedule, with dedicated waitstaff and expedited seating, no reservation needed. Dinner runs from 5:00pm to 10:00pm, so dress for the occasion in formal eveningwear.

image

Crab Shack

For a proper roll-up-your-sleeves lunch, head to this pop-up seafood spot in the Horizon Court on sea days. Clam chowder, popcorn shrimp and steamer pots bring the seaside feast, minus the need to find a fishing boat.

Try The Shack’s Signature Seafood Pot, packed with Dungeness crab legs, crawfish, shrimp, mussels and clams. Reservations are required where published, so do not leave it to chance.

Bars and Lounges

image

Wheelhouse Bar

Wheelhouse Bar

On Deck 7, the Promenade Deck, Wheelhouse Bar brings a traditional ship's wheelhouse feel to your pre dinner plans. Settle in with a Dark & Stormy, a martini, beer, wine or a non alcoholic drink, then let the live piano music take over the evening.

There is a dance floor if sitting still feels wildly overrated, while daytime can bring trivia, games or presentations. Dress is Smart Casual and shoes are required, so save the pool flip flops for another round the deck.

image

Churchill's Cigar Lounge

Churchill's Cigar Lounge

A cosy, pub-like lounge for smokers, Churchill’s is where you can settle in with a cigar, cigarette or pipe and a drink. You will find it on Deck 7, the Promenade Deck, near the Princess Theater.

Humidors hold cigars available to buy, while refreshments are on hand for a suitably unhurried pause. The lounge is wheelchair-accessible.

image

Crooners Bar

Crooners Bar

Crooners Bar on Deck 7 is your spot for a signature martini, an old school mixed drink and a little Rat Pack inspired art deco atmosphere.

A live pianist supplies the classic melodies and singalong spirit, while you work through a Ferrero, Whispers of Lapsang or Rum Brûlée. Dress is casual, so simply settle in and let the evening find its rhythm.

image

Bayou Cafe

Bayou Cafe

New Orleans comes to Promenade Deck 7, where Cajun and Creole flavours meet a proper steakhouse menu, with live jazz setting the mood while you dine.

Choose from gumbo, jambalaya and shrimp creole, or go straight for a premium steak. Dinner runs from 5:30pm to 9:00pm, with times varying by itinerary, so check your daily programme before you head aft.

image

Good Spirits at Sea

Good Spirits at Sea

Good Spirits at Sea on Plaza Deck 5 is where your pre dinner drink gets a little more theatrical. Settle in near the atrium for destination inspired cocktails, live piano entertainment and the pleasing spectacle of a mixologist at work.

Try the Bangkok Mule, with whiskey, basil, lemongrass, ginger syrup, lime and ginger beer. It is a casual spot for a proper catch up, with a better story than your usual G&T.

Movies Under the Stars

Movies Under the Stars

Your film night gets a sea breeze and a giant screen at this open-air, poolside theatre on Sun Deck 15. Settle into a deck chair or lounger for feature films, concerts, sporting events and more.

Service

Superb telephone conversation with Nickie. A lovely bloke that even laughed at my terrible humour whilst also finding me a cruise almost £100 cheaper than other operators. No long 'hold' queues or automated responses etc. Just a good proper human being helping arrange EVERYTHING in...

Mr Paul Cummings-22 September 2026

Booking was a piece of cake!

Rang up to query a few items and got a very nice lady who was extremely helpful and guided me through the process and I made a booking for end November. Very happy and a reasonable price as well.

Mr CAMPBELL WINDER-21 September 2026

Cruise Nation never fail to deliver a great deal.

Kerry was magnificent, very patient and super positive about finding me a deal that met my requirements. Took a couple of hours over two days but she delivered. Very happy with her commitment, especially on a Sunday morning
