We took the cruise in lieu of the Alaska cruise booked in 2019 that was cancelled due to Covid. We got credit instead of a refund (which was a bad decision) but were told the credit will expire by the end of 2022. We opted to go to Western Carribean and upgraded our room to one with a balcany. It is the most expensive cruise we have taken so far - over $3K spent for a 7 day cruise for two but it ...
I hope this review is helpful.
For some reference - We are avid cruisers (+30) sailing on various lines including Princess. Our past cruise experience includes Princess competitors as well as some luxury lines. Our future sailings are guided by world destinations we're marking off our list, but also a few cruises from our home state of Florida each year. So here is our unabridged ...
We choose. this cruise because of the price, we had been on the Princess in November 2021 and on Holland America in February 2022 and felt very secured in not getting COVID 19 everyone was required to wear masks when indoors, ,and you had to be fully vaccinated. So when we saw the price for this cruise we decided to take it.This cruise you had to be fully vaccinated but where not required to wear ...
I truly enjoyed not having to wear a mask onboard. I spent most of my time in The Sanctuary and loved it!
The food was good with a few exceptions (too rare Prime Rib--it was almost mooing!) The World Fresh Marketplace food was delicious but the lines were long. The crowd of people blocked the view of some of the items on offer. But everything I had was great. Try the curried lamb!
As ...
We stayed on board for 14 days-
I have been cruising for years (7 w/ Princess, 2 w/other lines), am a shareholder and enjoy meeting people. I have to say this cruise was by far crazy/ unbelievable, we felt like lepers, it's not what I expected and I am questioning whether I want to continue with Princess. We started off with American Airline losing our luggage for for 5 days. We got on our ship ...
I had a wonderful time on this cruise aboard the Caribbean Princess. The staff was awesome and the voyage was fun. The food was great. The drinks were good. Had fun at some of the events like the Marriage Game, Read My Lips, and Trivia. The one show called Bravo was excellent. Only drawback I had was not having enough outlets to charge my portable devices.
Just to be able to relax when we ...
Never had been to the Eastern Caribbean and had been on the Caribbean Princess on 3 previous cruises. We had enjoyed cruising on the Caribbean Princess on our previous cruises. Accommodations were good, food and entertainment were good, and staff was excellent. Our only other cruise on a different Princess ship was a cruise to Alaska on the Island Princess, and the cruise was excellent, our ...
We have been pretty loyal to Princess, the service, the food, always top notch. This time? Not so much. But I am giving some leeway due to covid. Embarkation was a mess at first as no one seemed t know where we to go for covid testing.
Ended up in 3 different lines, then had to wait 45 minutes past our appointment time as the nurses did not show up. We did get fast tracked past everyone ...
Having done 40+ cruises all I can say is WOW this was not good. I was happy to finally get away but the service and quality on this ship have seriously declined. The Medallionnet app rarely worked causing all sorts of issues with trying to enjoy any part of the cruise since it is the main source of information and planning services. I would have hated to be a first time cruiser as they would ...
