Booked this to get away from dealing with the hurricane damage in florida. i am elite with princess having sailed around the world twice with them. my husband died on an asia to alaska cruise in anchorage so i have a lot of memories with this cruise line and i've been to over 100 countries on various cruise lines lifetime. this was the absolute worst cruise i have ever been on. it was like a ...
Between COVID and my husband's worsening disability it had been 3 years since we cruised. We are Elite Princess cruisers and really missed our time on the seas. We purchased an electric scooter for my DH and off we went.
Embarkation in Ft. Lauderdale was a breeze. By noon we had dropped off our carry on luggage and were enjoying lunch in the Reserve area in the Island Dining Room. ...
My wife & I have 32 Princess Cruises over the years. We had about 5 enjoyable trips on this ship when it was new in the early 2004-2006 years. The ship now has a/c that struggles to cool even modestly. Palm dining room was so overly warm gentlemen were removing their jackets. Only the theatre was comfortable.
1. Shows, except for final night "Bravo" (which was superb) were a giant snooze, ...
We decided to try Princess Cruises for our first post-COVID cruise. We have been on 26 other cruises, all but one on Royal Caribbean or Celebrity. We purchased as a two week Caribbean cruise but it was also sold as 2 one week cruises. We chose a mini suite with the Princess Plus package. Here are a few of the issues we had:
- Notified two days before cruise that boarding times were changing due ...
I choose this cruise for the intinerary. I desired to see Belize and Roatan. Both were really nice I wish there was more time too be Belize. I would have liked to be on the beach.
I didn’t like the ships interior. The elevators were to small. Not enough air conditioning in some areas of the ship. The staircases were so narrow for a ship of great size The buffet area also too small for the ...
Overall I had a wonderful cruise. The weather was perfect except for one really hot day. The ports were as expected. Nice and relaxing with no major sites to see but good places to just enjoy. The ship is definitely showing some age but the smaller size is wonderful. I stayed in C2**. I loved staying on the 10th floor. Perfect location for anything I wanted to do. The gym opened at 6 am ...
I never thought I would write this kind of review for a cruise vacation (and this was my 10th cruise), but Caribbean Princess made the impossible possible with a terrible experience in every aspect.
Found a good itinerary with Caribbean Princess? Better ignore it as the captain will make sure you skip as many ports as possible. In our case, 2 OUT 4 (!) ports got cancelled due to "strong" winds. ...
We chose princess cruises because we had an agent LIE to us from the start and made it seem like we were getting a great deal and all these amazing savings and packages, only to find out that it was all a lie and we never got anything we were told and weren’t refunded for anything the agent told us. 3rd and 4th guest sail free lie! Kids sail free lie. My 3 year old paid full price for a cruise ...
We chose this ship due to the high prices on cruises these days. Princess was reasonable not the cheapest but okay for the ports.
Ship is older but clean. Many areas of deferred Maintenace while it listed as being refurbed it needs another one soon and much updating. I did enjoy my cruise mostly because the crew was so fun to be around. The entertainment seemed board with their jobs. the ...
I have been on several cruises in the Caribbean but I chose this one for the itinerary of Panama Canal and South America.
I was pleasantly surprised how fast embarkation process was, no wonder since I spent hours downloading all necessary documents and photos on the Princess App beforehand. My only complaint there was no wi-fi at the Terminal at Ft. Lauderdale so I could not open the App. I ...
