    The renowned American cruise line Princess Cruises has revealed plans to house its largest-ever casino when it debuts its latest cruise ship, Sun Princess.

    Although Sun Princess is currently under construction at the Fincantieri shipyard in Italy, it is poised to set sail in February 2024, and no expense has been spared for the casino.

    Covering 9,000 square feet of gaming space and located on deck 8 next to the hustle and bustle of the Piazza, Sun Princess has quite literally gone all in to cater to the whims of its guests.

    Featuring 10-foot-high ceilings, 227 slot machines, and 13 live tables, the casino will be 50% bigger than any of the other previous Princess Cruises incarnations.

    Not only that, but Sun Princess will roll out over 200 of the most enticing video poker and slot games for the 4,300 guests on board.

    While there will be a dedicated area for the high rollers offering lucrative cash prizes, Sun Princess will aim to provide the most immersive gambling experience for all its players.

    Confirming the plans, John Padgett, President of Princess Cruises, is confident guests will relish playing their favorite games.

    He said: “Casino lovers, high rollers or simply those wanting to try a hand during their vacation will be stunned by the new Princess Casino onboard Sun Princess.

    “Princess has embraced the casino experience and is proud to offer such exciting gaming surrounded by absolutely world-class dining and entertainment.”

    The luxurious ship will have an array of entertainment and fine dining options, and as with most balconies and sun decks on any Princess cruise line, guests can soak up the views of the crystal clear waters of the Mediterranean and Caribbean.

    Princess Cruises, which is owned by Carnival Corporation, is one of the most iconic cruise liners in the world. 

    More affectionately known as the “love boat”, Princess Cruises has a proven track record of delivering dream voyages to some of the world’s sought-after locations for its guests each year.

    Bookings are now being accepted for those who wish to travel with Sun Princess next year.
