Princess Quay is a small private beach that belongs to the cruise line. You have to tender out to the island, so we waited till the crowds died down before going ashore. Its a nice beach and they serve a great barbecue buffet for free. I heard a lot of complaining from other passengers about this destination. It is what it is, and it is what is described in the brochure. Don't see why people don't take time to understand where they are paying to go. I found it restful, laid back and beautiful.

Princess Cays

On Curacao we opted for a tour around the town. That was a mistake. Unless your totally in to old run down buildings, there is nothing to see. Shopping is limited and very commercial. I'd recommend going to a beach instead.

Aruba is GORGEOUS. We took an air conditioned bus ride and saw the islands main sites. The last stop was on the beach, with a ride in a "semi-sub". Its a boat with seats five feet below the water line and big windows. A beautiful way to see shipwrecks and fish and a reef without getting wet.

Nice room, good shower. Good balcony. Very aft, and the rear stairs don't go through due to the dining rooms.

The room was great: nice balcony, a sofa area with second flat screen TV.Ship Info 
The Grand is a good size ship, not giant by today's standard- but several venues with stuff going on.
