This being our first cruise we were extremely excited. We, along with 9 other family members cruised the Southern Caribbean for 7 days the beginning of April. 9 adults and 4 children under 11.
The flights into and out of San Juan went well, we booked via travel agent and had plenty of time to gather our baggage and find the Crown Princess transport to the ship. We boarded about 2:30 and found the process to be much less painful than anticipated. The entire process took about 20 minutes from the security check to getting onto the ship.
Our rooms were on the Dolphin deck (deck 9) in the aft (rear portion) of the ship. Our mini-suites were spotless and well appointed. We traveled with two five year olds and they were very comfortable on the pull out couch. Be careful with what you pack as there is not much storage.
