Island Princess


The Island Princess is a sister ship to the Coral Princess, with a design that allows a large percentage of ocean-view staterooms. Fabulous views from the Lotus Spa complement massage therapy, fitness classes or visits to the sauna. Take your choice of poolside environments: near the spa, on the Lido Deck near a bar and pizzeria or at the splash pool on the Sports Deck. Younger passengers have their own pool in the child and teen recreation area. Also on board are a golf simulator and nine-hole course, AOL Internet cafe, library, fine art gallery and various bars and lounges. A wedding chapel houses ceremonies at sea. Dine in the specialty restaurants -- Sabatini's trattoria or New Orleans-style Bayou Cafe -- or in the dining room before a show in one of three theaters or gaming in the London-themed casino. Enjoy meals anytime with 'round the clock room service and a 24-hour buffet and bistro.

Ports of Call



Anchorage (Whittier), Alaska
At the base of the Chugach Mountains in the shadow of a towering glacier and surrounded by snow-capped peaks, the tiny town of Whittier is the gateway to the spectacular Prince William Sound and the city of Anchorage. Whittier exists on thriving fishing and tourism industries. Its 290 residents enjoy a near wilderness state, as it was inaccessible by road until 2000.

College Fjord, Alaska
Some of the best glacier viewing in the state can be seen tucked into the northwest corner of Prince William Sound at College Fjord. Winding down from mountains and through valleys and fjords, these massive rivers of ice are often on the move, periodically dropping their bounty into the sea.

Glacier Bay National Park, Alaska
This spectacular national park and preserve displays massive glaciers that stretch 3.3 million acres from the St. Elias and Fairweather mountain ranges to the ends of the fjords. It is home to an amazing world of marine life, including humpback whales, sea otters, porpoises and harbor seals. It also possesses the highest concentration of tidewater glaciers on the planet. And access is extremely limited.

Skagway, Alaska
Few one-time boom-towns retain the flavor of the gold rush days like Skagway. This gateway to the Klondike is preserved as a national historic park with its rustic boardwalk and frontier-style storefronts. Due to its geographic location, Skagway enjoys a drier climate compared to the rest of southeastern Alaska, with an average annual precipitation of only 22 inches.

Juneau, Alaska
Perched on a thin strip of land at the mouth of Gold Creek, Juneau is arguably one of America's most beautiful state capitals, with the looming summits of Mt. Juneau and Mt. Roberts providing a gorgeous backdrop.

Ketchikan, Alaska
This southern-most Alaskan port city is known as Alaska's First City because it was the first major community travelers came to heading north. Founded as a fishing camp, Ketchikan is built on steep hillsides and is billed as the salmon capital of the world. A quaint village, the town is just three miles long and three blocks wide.

Vancouver, B.C., Canada
Often thought of as Canada's most beautiful city, Vancouver is a thriving metropolis that's fortunate enough to be surrounded by so much natural beauty. With its numerous parks, beaches, gardens, museums, art galleries - even the second-largest Chinatown in North America - Vancouver is one of those rare places that actually lives up to its promise of offering something for everyone.

Tax and port charges of $379.00 per person are additional.

Accommodations will be provided in an Inside Cabin for two people.
High bidders who wish to upgrade to an Oceanview Cabin may request an upgrade quote at time of submission.


Reservations are subject to availability.

In the event of ties, the AutoBid is the winning bid.
