We had a great time aboard the Pride during our 7-day cruise. We upgraded to a Vista Suite cabin and found the extra amenities to be more than worth the extra money. We would book the same suite type again.
We had a larger-than-normal room, a much larger bathroom and a MUCH, MUCH larger balcony. We also received VIP treatment during embarkation, debarkation and throughout the entire cruise. We enjoyed the daily VIP surprises which were left in our cabin each day.
The Pride is in good shape overall. Yes, some paint is chipping here and there, but you have to look hard to see that stuff. So, don't look hard and enjoy your time aboard the Pride!!
The Vista Suite is well worth the additional money. 5266 and 5295 are the only two suites where the beds face the ocean. The other Vista Suites have the beds facing the wall. We really liked the huge balcony and the big, double-sink bathroom.
