Again we started this trip with a drive to Boca Raton and a night at the Holiday Inn Express Boca Raton West. Upon arrival it was raining, so we stopped at Greenwise Market and bought salads for dinner then went back to the hotel to eat in the breakfast area.
In the morning we drove 45 minutes to the cruise port arriving at 9:30 a.m.. We were aware that we would be embarking at pier 21 and ...
We are veteran cruisers who have sailed on NCL, Royal Caribbean, Celebrity, Holland America and Princess. This cruise was our 5th Princess and 20th cruise overall. Our main reason for taking this cruise was to celebrate my mothers-in-law's 80th birthday (this was her 1st cruise).
Our Cabin was on deck 12 midship Aloha which is an accommodated mini suite. The cabin was spacious and perfect for ...
My wife and I, who are long term Princess cruisers chose the Caribbean Princess because it was the perfect time to sail, right after Christmas and through New Year.
We have been to the Caribbean several times before so we were not really concerned about the itinerary just a warm place to go. We did rent a cabana on Princess Cays which was really nice with A/C and excellent food. Sadly, it was ...
My wife and I had done a Christmas cruise last year on the Regal Princess (which was my favorite ship). We enjoyed it so much that we decided to book another Christmas cruise this year and we wanted to try the Enchanted Princess since we had not sailed on her before. We continued to check Princess's website prior to sailing and was able to get a great deal on the 10-day cruise departing 12/8/2024 ...
What I loved about this cruise was that almost everybody on the ship were 55 or older. No kids and families took this two-week cruise in December. The weather was great. The ship atmosphere was relaxed. Our staff were friendly and attentive. I engaged with most people I came in contact with, asking them how many cruises they have been on, and of course where are they from. (Most everybody ...
Review
Background: Mid 40’s couple and we took this cruise without our children. First trip with Princess, but have cruised with RC and Disney before this. We enjoy cruising for the adventure, the drinks and entertainment, and because we love being in the sun near water.
Embarkation
This was really a breeze for us, though I can see where others may have a completely different view than ...
We cruised from Ft. Lauderdale to Panama Canal and back to Ft. Lauderdale. The embarkation was very easy and smooth. No complaints about that. We had stops in Montego Bay, Cartagena, Limon and Grand Cayman. We could have skipped Montego Bay and Cartagena. The guide on the excursion in Montego Bay just spoke about the poverty on the island. Not what we were looking for. Cartagena excursion ...
Caribbean Princess – Oct. 31-Nov 5, 2023 Caribbean Sampler
This trip began with a drive to Boca Raton and a night at the Holiday Inn Express Boca Raton West. The hotel was a quick walk from the Greenwise Market where there are lots of dinner choices and a pub room with beers and wines on tap. After dinner we sat at the lovely pool and relaxed.
In the morning we drove 45 minutes to the ...
Just got home from this cruise. I have to say it was perfect. No complaints. Embarkation was crazy, but nothing Princess could have done about that. They were 2 hrs late getting into Ft Lauderdale and then had a surprise full Coast Guard inspection dropped on them at the last minute. There was a definite lack of communication about the delay. Some people got emails and let the Facebook ...
This was a spur of the moment decision to take this So. Fl to Quebec Cruise up the entire Eastern US Coast and over all our experience was very, very positive. I was very surprised when I learned that the ship had over 3,000 passengers because it certainly rarely felt that way. We decided to eat all 3 of our meals at the Buffet which enabled me and the wife to get exactly what we wanted since we ...
