Princess Cruises has revealed some new features coming to Star Princess, its second Sphere Class ship set to debut in late 2025.

A replica of sister ship Sun Princess, Star Princess will offer several unique enhancements, including more non-smoking casino areas, as well as expanded dining venues.

The 4,300-guest, 178,000-ton Star Princess is the second Sphere-Class ship in the Princess fleet and will also be powered by liquefied natural gas (LNG).

Princess will also have key features like The Dome, the first geodesic dome at sea, and The Sphere, a glass-enclosed Piazza at the heart of the ship.

“After the overwhelming response to Sun Princess, we are excited to debut sister ship, Star Princess, with added enhancements,” said John Padgett, Princess Cruises president. ”

Expanded Non-Smoking Casino Areas: Gaming enthusiasts who prefer a smoke-free environment will enjoy 68 additional slot machines in newly designated non-smoking sections.

Expanded Love by Britto: This exclusive, art-inspired dining venue, a collaboration between artist Romero Britto and Chef Rudi Sodamin, will add 20 more seats.

SkyDeck Sports Court & Track: A new sports court for pickleball and basketball, with a jogging track, splash pad, and shaded areas for relaxation.

Star Princess houses 2,157 staterooms, including 80 suites, 123 mini suites, more than 1,000 balcony cabins, plus 100 connecting rooms.

The Sanctuary Collection offers exclusive access to the ship’s top deck retreat area, along with a host of additional amenities.
