About Us My husband and I are both a young 60 years old. This is our 6th Princess cruise and our first at the Platinum level. We have also enjoyed several RCI cruises, however we like the perks of the Princess loyalty program better. We chose this cruise because Curacao and Aruba were ports we wanted to visit, and we also wanted plenty of time to rest and relax after a rather hectic and stressful last few months.

Pre-cruise stay

We had an uneventful flight to Fort Lauderdale a day before the cruise and enjoyed our stay at the Hyatt Place 17th Street. Great location near the Harbour Shops, great place for restaurants and stocking up on wine/water before the cruise. As we read on CC, Total Wine has an awesome wine selection at very good prices. Had a casual dinner at Gilbert's 17th Street Grill where we stuffed ourselves on outstanding burgers and fries. This place definitely deserves its #2 ranking on Trip Advisor for restaurants in Fort Lauderdale, not only for its food but also for its good friendly service. In the morning we took the 10am shuttle to the port, which is very close to the hotel.
