It has taken me several days to get my thoughts together (and the laundry done) so this review is perhaps a bit later than others -- but hopefully will be helpful to some.
First of all I should start by saying this was our 5th cruise and 4th with Princess (we've previously cruised Regal -- 1997, Grand -- 2002, Golden -- 2003, Carnival Imagination -- 1999). Despite the many negative reviews and a bit of anxiety over choosing the Caribbean Princess we had a great time, it was truly a fabulous cruise and I would definitely cruise on her again.
CABIN: Our cabin was Riviera 230, nice location for being near the pools and Horizon Court. No noise ever from outside but could often hear our neighbors on the balcony -- not a problem though. Our cabin steward Adel was everything you'd like in a cabin steward -- friendly, accommodating and unobtrusive AND he did his job well. Had requested the feather pillows and "egg crate" mattress pad -- they were both there after dinner and made for a very comfortable bed. I'm very glad I decided to request them. Robes arrived Sunday after breakfast.
