I just got back the ground is still rocking! In a nutshell if you're looking for relaxation, this cruise is not for you. It was our first cruise and there was so much to do we sometimes stood there for an hour trying to figure out what to do next. Embarkation was a breeze, Princess does it right!

The islands were OK, but not the highlight of the trip unless you like to shop for jewelry (there is TONS of it at the ports) or you like to sit in the blazing sun on the beach. We booked one excursion at Grand Cayman, NOT through Princess and saved a bundle of money. We paid $52 per person for an all day snorkeling trip including lunch, equipment and Sting Ray City which is not to be missed. We used Captain Marvin's and they were absolutely wonderful. I highly recommend them. Their website is http://www.captainmarvins.com. They were wonderful, friendly and two guys who ran our boat were very friendly and nice.

The ship is very big and impressive without feeling too big or crowded. The food was outstanding! Lounge chairs were always available and our trip was booked solid! Read more
