Adults-Only Sanctuary Offers Tranquility on Princess Cruises

Princess Cruise Ship
By popular demand, Princess Cruises will be adding a “Sanctuary” venue to all its ships – an adults-only haven full of quiet and relaxation for parents and adults seeking peace from “younger” passengers. Adults can take a break and indulge in a fantastically private getaway on plush spa-inspired settings, massage cabanas, drinks, light meals, great service and a relaxing environment.

“The Sanctuary,” as it has been known on other Princess Cruises ships, is a “pocket of tranquility,” and on many sailings, have been a popular place for passengers looking for a hideaway since 2006. This summer, a Sanctuary area will be added to all of Princess Cruises’ ships, to be completed by 2010.

Jan Swarts, Princess SVP notes, “The Sanctuary has come to personify Princess’ essential philosophy of escape coupled with personal service. . .Passengers have told us they love this opportunity to completely relax in such a peaceful and pampering environment, so we’re delighted to introduce this special Princess feature on all our vessels.”
