Chose club class mini suite. Excellent for 2 week voyage. A bit disappointed with the entertainment of Santa and holiday events because of such a huge crowd in Piazzia. Maybe show this entertainment on tv so more can see. I’m sure that was the best place not knowing weather conditions and having a full capacity of guests. Club class dining is outstanding, a bit disappointed in buffet. Formal ...
This was a good cruise with some not so good mixed in. Basically the cruise was fine in the sense you're on a floating hotel visiting all these beautiful places for two weeks over Christmas and New Year without any stress or worries.
A few items to note, the wait lines/times for dinner are just silly and UNACCEPTABLE. On average we waited 30 minutes each night with 4 dinners being over an hour ...
Embarkation
Embarkation was actually one of the simpler we’ve experienced. We walked right in around 11:00, waited no more than 5 minutes in line for the X-Ray, then walked right up to a boarding agent. If the Medallion app had worked properly, we would have been through the boarding process in seconds, but the app refused to scan our passports so the terminal agent had to do that ...
This was our 41st cruise and we chose Caribbean Princess so we could see 2 of the 8 ports we've never been to. Those were Martinique and Trinidad. The others we've been to 3 to 11 times. The improvements to the ship were awesome. This was one of the most relaxing cruises.
Our balcony cabin was perfect....no noise from anything. The location on the Starboard side was perfect on deck-15. We ...
I've been on numerous Princess Ships and until this one LOVED Princess. The Caribbean Princess however is absolutely one of the poorest designed ships Princess has. Medallion Net will only really work if you have an I phone 7 or higher but they don't tell you that.
The buffet is unlike other Princess Ships very crowded with the omelete station in another room. Medallion Net only attracts ...
Embarkation was smooth and quick. We received our medallions in the mail prior to the cruise and set everything up beforehand and it was a breeze.
We found the public areas of the ship to be clean and inviting. The lounges, bars, dining rooms and decks were all comfortable. We did notice that it was always colder in the Explorers Lounge and Promenade Deck in general than elsewhere on the ...
Our 14 day cruise around the Caribbean was somewhat different to the other 20+ cruises we have enjoyed with Princess because some of their recent changes have not really worked well. In particular, the earlier meal and show times resulted in the theatre being full 45 minutes before the 6.45 and 8.45 pm shows and very little in the way of entertainment after 9.30 in the ...
We actually were on the ship for 28 days starting Jan. 26th. so we were able to see the changes in entertainment over the 3 cruises.
Technical summary:
Let me start with the Medallion wifi, my profile/email to this day still fails for Ocean apps. This only hinders specialized services like 7/24 gambling so I can not comment. It was a learning experience to access wifi and queues at the ...
This 14 day cruise cover the southern caribbean . It has a very good itinary the included St Thomas, Aruba, St Kitts, Barbados, antigua. The only drawback was that the ship did not stay long enough in most of these locations. But we enjoyed visting these places especially the nice beaches. We sailed the same ship few months ago and it was great. This time we noticed a significant deterioration in ...
We chose this cruise because of the destination. The ship was one of the medium size princess ships and was just a good size that you still had heaps to do, but not to big that it was in-personal. The ship on the outside looked like most princess ships, but on the inside it was well maintained, the only drawback was that many of the laundries had broken washing machines and thus it was hard to ...
