Caribbean Princess Review
Rating by category
Additional details
This was a last minute cruise purchase. We had and have so many various commitments that any holiday had to be taken within a short three week window so, quite honestly, we would have gone anywhere (well, nearly anywhere) if there was immediate availability and an acceptable price. Find, agree, book, pack and arrive at Southampton for embarkation, all within five days. It was the best deal we could find but we did have some anxiety about our choice. Would the inside cabin be claustrophobic, would the Fore location be choppy, would the Princess Theatre one deck below Emerald prove intolerably noisy, and, finally, would the Norwegian weather be so grim that, coupled with the feared seasickness, we would, on the whole, rather prefer to be in Bognor!
All fears proved without foundation and we have returned with wonderful memories.
The inside cabin was perfectly adequate for our needs. It did have wall mounted bunk beds which didn't impinge upon us at all but we thought the space might feel uncomfortably cramped had we had two children sharing the cabin in addition to ourselves.
Cabin Review
E112 - Caribbean Princess.This inside cabin was perfectly adequate for our needs. It did have wall mounted bunk beds which didn't impinge upon us at all but we thought the space might feel uncomfortably cramped had we had two children sharing the cabin in addition to ourselves.We loved the fore location. It had none of the disconcerting vibrations associated with the aft area though I appreciate that this is a personal preference and some people prefer the vibrations to the rocking of the ship. There are numerous doors from the Upper Promenade into the ship and it is true that the majority of them bear the sign - Crew Members Only. However there are doors which don't bear this sign and one of them is just a few steps away from E112. Virtually instant access to the Upper Promenade.
