Diamond Princess

Ship Overview

Purpose-built with Japanese cruising and Asian itineraries strongly in mind, Diamond Princess delivers one of the most internationally focused experiences in the Princess Cruises fleet. Since entering service in 2004, the ship has become especially well known for its long-running Japan deployment, destination-intensive itineraries, and onboard features tailored specifically toward Asian cruise travelers. The atmosphere aboard Diamond Princess feels refined, destination-oriented, and slightly more culturally immersive compared to many Western-focused cruise ships.

The vessel underwent major refurbishment enhancements in 2017 that introduced upgraded dining venues, refreshed accommodations, expanded wellness areas, and the Izumi Japanese Bath, one of the most distinctive spa experiences found aboard a mainstream cruise ship. Diamond Princess also features expansive observation lounges, specialty dining, traditional Princess entertainment venues, and broad outdoor promenade areas ideal for scenic cruising. Japan, Southeast Asia, and seasonal Australia itineraries continue positioning Diamond Princess as one of Princess Cruises’ most globally unique vessels.
