Emerald Princess deck plan changes 2016 refurbishment review

The ship's 2015 drydocking (between November 30 and December 13) was initially scheduled for general maintenance works only and no deck plan changes were announced ahead.

However, during the drydock, an extensive refurbishment plan was implemented targeting the ship’s spring-summer 2016 voyages from the UK.

The deck plans changes and news following drydock 2016 included:

• Two new premium dining venues were added. The new “Share” is a family-style restaurant by Curtis Stone (an Australian celebrity chef). Its menu features charcuterie (pork meat products) and also homemade pasta. The new “Salty Dog Gastropub” cuisine experience (by chef Ernesto Uchimura) is provided by a classic pub menu offered nightly in the Wheelhouse Bar (on Promenade Dec 7) with craft beers and pub favorites served in small plates.
• On Deck 16, “Share” replaced the Sabatini’s” – the Italian restaurant, which is also featured on the Princess ships Coral, Ruby and Sun. “Salty Dog Gastropub” was introduced for the first time on the Crown ship (in 2015 October) and will also be introduced on the Ruby ship.
• Passenger cabin upgrades included Princess' new luxury mattress.
• The Gym was upgraded with new sports equipment and free weights.
• 100 staterooms became "family cabins" after being fitted with interconnecting doors.
