We booked this cruise while on the Crown Princess Eastern Caribbean late April cruise in 2009. That was a family cruise and this was just for the adults. It's a great itinerary and we enjoyed the Crown and booking this cruise seemed to be a natural. Our only problem with the Crown was pretty bad food for dinners in the MDR. We don't cruise for food and like the Princess ships and the crowd it attracts.
I actually started the roll call after getting a suggestion from someone on Cruise Critic who did this itinerary in 2009. I figured we'd meet some people and set up some private tours. We wound up meeting some great people and set up some amazing tours. As for the roll call, it's over 1,100 posts and nobody seemed to care that no officials from Princess showed up our Meet & Greet at Adagio's on the sail away day (second day of the cruise).
The cabin itself was a typical Princess BD balcony, Baja 419. Typical Princess small room and covered balcony. After having four of us in a great mini-suite last year, this was fine for two people. No complaints and thank you to our surrounding balcony neighbors as there was no smoke at anytime we spent on the balcony. Room steward was satisfactory. My impression is that these guys have more rooms to cover than our previous Princess cruise and that impacts service a bit. But there were no complaints.
