Sun Princess emerges from drydock with new features

The Sun Princess has emerged from a glorious 14-day refurbishment with some exciting new features.

Sheโ€™ll be starting a short season sailing from Perth completing three roundtrip itineraries including a maiden eight-nightย Coral Coastย voyage which will see the liner return to Exmouth for the first time since 2009. During her Western Australian deployment, Sun Princess will also make calls to Albany, Broome, Busselton (for the Margaret River region) and Geraldton.

โ€œSun Princess will return to the great city of Perth with an array of new features that Western Australianโ€™s are going to love.โ€ย said Senior Vice President Princess Cruises Asia Pacific, Stuart Allison.

โ€œSun Princessโ€™ return to Western Australia also marks the linerโ€™s return to Exmouth for the first time in almost ten-years. Guests sailing on the new eight-nightย Coral Coastย voyage roundtrip from Perth will make calls to Geraldton and Broome, before sailing to Exmouth to enjoy Western Australiaโ€™s stunningly beautiful Northwest Cape.โ€

Hereโ€™s whatโ€™s on offer:

Food

Sun Princessโ€™ homeport in Western Australia also marks the return of beloved Australian Chef Curtis Stoneโ€™s onboard restaurant,ย SHARE. With two award-winning restaurantโ€™s in Los Angeles (Maudeย andย Gwen),ย SHAREย is the only opportunity for Western Australians to sample the chefโ€™s exquisite cuisine locally.

โ€œI had the pleasure of visiting the spectacular Margaret River region recently and I can say that Western Australia is a beautiful produce-rich state that has a flavour as dynamic as its people; Iโ€™m so excited to create my signature dishes at SHARE using fresh local flavours that are unique to Western Australia,โ€said Chef Curtis Stone.

Kids

For younger cruisers, Sun Princess has been fitted with transformedย Camp Discoveryย youth centres. Designed in partnership with Discovery™, the centres have been created specifically for kids and teens, encouraging new friendships and supporting discovery and creativity through play.

Livery

In aesthetic enhancements, Sun Princess is the latest ship to receive the elegant livery design featuring Princess Cruisesโ€™ logo, one of the most recognised brand logos in cruising. The design features the smooth and flowing gracefulness of ocean waves and represents the excitement and adventure of discovering the great destinations of the world aboard a Princess cruise.

Shopping

Guests onboard Sun Princess can also enjoy an enhanced shopping experience atย The Shops of Princessย with a new brandedย Effy Fine Jewellery Boutiqueย along with a newly designedย Logo Shopย where guests can choose from a collection of Princess branded athletic wear and logo apparel.

Entertainment

In the Princess Theatre, guests will be entertained byย Encore,ย a spellbinding musical directed and choreographed by world-renown creative director, Danny Teeson. Guests can also participate inย The Voice of the Ocean,ย an interactive in-show experience, inspired byย the highest-ranked TV show in the world.

Sun Princessโ€™ 2018/2019 deployment comes as Princes Cruises prepares for a record-breaking 141-day deployment in Fremantle for the 2019/2020 Australian summer cruising season, the largest financial commitment ever made to the state by a cruise brand. This historic investment follows the return of Sun Princess to Fremantle which will generate a one hundred per cent increase in cruise ship guests sailing from Western Australia.
