Sun Princess
Sun Princess: Largest ship in fleet features slew of new features & amenities
Snapshot
Sun Princess, the first Sphere class ship from Princess Cruises, debuted in early 2024 with a season of sailings in the Caribbean in the winter and in the Mediterranean in the summer.
The largest ship ever built for Princess at 175,500 gross tons, the ship is 20 percent larger than any of the line’s existing ships. The goal of the Sphere class of ship is to embrace the Princess heritage while celebrating the romance of the sea by offering more dynamic, outward views.
The ship features more than 1,500 balconies and 29 restaurants and bars throughout 21 decks. Guests can experience new innovative areas such as the Dome, the Piazza and the Princess Arena. You'll also find new or reimagined dining venues, an expanded casino, a two-story Lotus Spa and aerial entertainment headlined by Cirque Éloize.
