We just got back from the March 25th Eastern Caribbean cruise. This was our 7th cruise, but first on Princess. My wife and I, 54 & 44, were traveling with three children.

The ship is beautiful and in like new condition. We had two of the less expensive KK grade inside cabins. We were impressed at the size of the cabins compared to the inside cabins on other cruises we have been on. Each cabin has a safe and a refrigerator however my refrigerator did not get very cold. The cabins have a lot of storage and a 6 foot long closet for hanging clothes. My only complaint about the cabin was no lighted clock so I never knew what time it was in the middle of the night.

The mix of passengers was the oldest crowd I have ever experienced on a cruise. I have never seen so many passengers in wheelchairs and on walkers. I'm talking a lot of 70 to 90 somethings. Three times I assisted seniors wandering around lost or separated from their spouse. Nevertheless, there was a lot for our kids to do. They have a Kids Club for each age group but they rarely went up there. The movies under the stars MUTS was a treat and they were showing newer movies none of which we had seen. The magic show we thought was great and the singers and dancers too. All-in-all, it was a much more laid back cruise than others we have been on.

Cabin Review

Cabin KK

Caribe C736 KK grade inside cabin--- very large compared to other inside cabins on other cruise ships. Safe and refrigerator in each room. Lots of storage space and a 6 foot long closet to hang clothes. My only complaint is there is no lighted clock to see the time at night.
