Coral Princess Review

Additional details
Fancied doing something different and chose this cruise as we have cruised with Princess a fews times to Mexico at Thanksgiving on the Ruby and Crown.
The Coral is an old ship and starting to look a bit tired. We sailed during Xmas and NYE. It was a bit boring on both nights, but that's okay wasn't expecting Times Square but could have been a bit better.
We had 2 balcony cabins and 1 mini suite. We really needed a handicapped accessible cabin for our wheelchair bound disabled child, but low and behold not one was available. My child was the only one on the cruise who actually had her own wheelchair that wasn't rented! But there you go, awful but people seem to think booking a handicapped accessible cabin when you don't need it really but just want the extra space, is okay. But it's not.
Cabin Review
Balcony
Cabin was okay, it was a mini suite. Time for the Coral to be refitted and updated. TV service was awful, just repeated the same shows everyday. Had different movies so at least that was something.
Bathroom was okay, again, for sure needs to be updated. Tile work had mold in areas. Toilets in our zone (area) broke down for a few hours a couple of times.
Port Reviews
Aruba
Not enough time to do anything, but we walked around the sea front and popped into a few shops.
