The best that I can say about my experience on the Caribbean Princess is that I enjoyed the Twinings Green Tea and that the layout of the cabin was well designed. All other aspects of the cruise were an utter disappointment.
The embarkation process was chaotic. Once on board the ship, there was no welcome glass of champagne or any other semblance of a real greeting by Princess personnel.
Our mini suite, while spacious, was not well maintained. Avoid cabin D719 at all cost. The sofa has the remnants of stains and the bathroom floor has missing floor tiles and always looks dirty due to embedded stains. When I attempted to turn over the sofa cushions, it was clear that the sofa had not been vacuumed in quite some time. The bedspreads are old, worn and also look dirty. The level of cleanliness was not up to par and our cabin steward, while pleasant, did nothing to go out of his way to be helpful.
