Princess Caribbean Princess Family Cruises Reviews

We took the 10 day Princess cruise from NYC to Quebec and had not been on Princess in quite a few years (our last trip being 10 days in the carribean on Princess). We selected this cruise because it was a relatively cheap one from NYC. Big mistake, we got what we paid for. My overall impression was that Princess has declined since our last 10 day cruise. The ship was described to us by ...

We chose this cruise to explore alternative ways to cross the Atlantic to the U.S.A. The Caribbean Princess comes a very poor second to Cunard's Queen Mary 2 in all comparisons. Space: The ship felt cramped and claustrophobic on the sea days.. the restaurants have very low ceilings, consequently the noise of normal conversation becomes deafening The balcony stateroom was smaller and we could ...

The ship should go into dry dock permanently!!! This was the worst cruise I have taken. Ship is extremely old, the carpets dirty and musty. The ship broke down at sea, communication on the status could of been better. We missed 2 ports of call Dublin due to a mechanical problem and Orkney Islands because of weather. The cabins are very small, shower stalls good for a child not an adult. ...

The British Isles was chosen due to the ports it offered and because a past Princess cruise through the Panama Canal was wonderful. Embarkation was easy and quick. But it went downhill from there. The Caribbean Princess is not equipped to sail cooler climates. With expected rain and cooler temperatures in the British Isles, the pools and outdoor areas could not be used because of the ...

We were very excited about our first cruise which has probably turned out to be our last. There are parts of cruising my wife and I simply do not enjoy. Mainly the crowds, the limited exposure to an area - only getting a short stay at any given location. The experience would have been greatly enhanced if the the Princess Cruise line ran the cruises by thinking of the passengers instead of their ...

We chose this cruise because of the itinerary which Princess offered. Mainly the Normandy Beach excursion. I booked off ship excursions which I recommend. Food was below average. Service in the main dining rooms were very slow and not impressive as advertised by Princess. Did enjoy the Horizon court, however finding a table was mission impossible at times. Did enjoy the Pizza and the service ...

public bathrooms were messy, expect to get your own coffee, tea, water in buffet, long lines for anytime dining on certain nights, very disorganized and very little to do. Our table talked about how bad it was, and then someone said they are owned by Carnival, enough said. BTW even the casino was bad, the tournaments were a joke. The black jack tournament was $20.00 to enter and you had to have ...

We thought we done a lot of research before choosing our cruise and travelling from Sydney Australia with my Adult sons and their partners to Houston Texas. Well were we wrong!!!! Before I criticise this ship I would like to point out we have done over 20 cruises, mainly in Australia and Europe with RCCL & NCL, so what I have to say is only compared to what we have done in the past. The ...

First, a caveat. I assume a lot of people like Princess. After two cruises, we do not. We are Celebrity Elite status cruisers and find Princess no match for Celebrity. So, maybe my comments will help others who are not sure what line to go with, to make a decision based on this information. Getting on and off were fine. The food was good, except I felt the beef items from hamburgers to steaks ...

Cruise ship was in poor maintenance, toilets constantly backed up, rusty and dirty balcony. Blanket had brown stains on it, the television was placed such that the remote did not work properly, the buffet was lousy, particularly the breakfast selection. Two of our three destinations were cancelled, one due to engine trouble with the ship. But by far, the worst aspect of the cruise, was the ...
