Caribbean Princess Review
Rating by category
Additional details
Exceptional customer service. Nice cabin. Good food. Sold-out cruise which never felt crowded. A great ship sponsored excursion. Friendly fellow passengers.
These descriptions are the experiences of a middle aged couple with three grown sons who traveled on the Caribbean Princess staying in two Aloha deck (12) , balcony cabins over the holiday sailing.
With Houston being a new port for Princess, there was bound to be snags. Our captain managed to keep three ports on our itinerary after we were delayed a day due to fog. We had to give up Roatan, Honduras but gained Costa Maya , Mexico. The ATV ride and beach excursion we booked through the ship there was definitely a highlight of the week. ( Remember to be fearless and unafraid of the power of your machine as you can go very fast, over sand, narrow paths, open roads and bumps!)
Cabin Review
The aloha deck balcony cabin just slightly forward of midship was excellent for my husband and I. We had easy access to the piazza, spa, fitness gym, casino and art gallery. An added bonus was the outdoor deck on the 14th deck all the way forward . Not many passengers knew about it. The walk to the aft , Palm Dining room was the longest trek of the day. ( We needed to burn off all those delicious desserts!)
