Caribbean Princess

7 Night Western Caribbean (Ft. Lauderdale Roundtrip)

Sail date: September 23, 2006

Ship: Caribbean Princess

Cabin type: Balcony

Traveled as: Family (young children)

Review summary

The ship was outstanding. There was not enough time in the week to fully experience everything it had to offer. Upon returning home you want to cruise on the Caribbean Princess again just to find those missed treasures.

Ports of call

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
Rented a multi colored VW beetle and visited a private beach resort. Must try the local food. Dont' waste time on the party boats. Takes up your entire day and you miss the island. Must snorkle and hit a pinata.
Don't Miss: Cruising around town in a VW convertible.

Ocho Rios, Jamaica

5 out of 5
Rented a taxi and took a tour of the "local" life. Ate at a local jerk chicken stand and the food was out of this world. If it is your first visit climb the Falls but otherwise get out and explore. Shopping was great at the Taj Mahal.
Don't Miss: Two words.....Jerk Chicken

Princess Cays (Cruise Line Private Island)

5 out of 5
Stroll along the beach and relax. Don't miss the barbeque and get a strawberry dacquiri in a coconut monkey's head. Great place to take advantage of the water activities but make sure to book ahead instead of waiting until you get to the island.
Don't Miss: laying in the hammocks enjoying the sun
