Review summary

2nd time on ship. Have traveled on many mega ships and this one is by far one of the best. Fabulous food and activities for everyone. Not a whole lot of children and seemed to host upper middle class travelers. Great time and will travel on this ship again.

Ports of call

Roseau, Dominica

5 out of 5
Beautiful island. Poor shopping. Recommend the water tubing excursion.

Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas

3 out of 5
Kind of a been there, done that island. Recommend the tram ride to top of mountain. People a little aggressive on island and driver tend to not watch where they are going.

Bonaire, Netherlands Special Municipality

5 out of 5
One of the most beautiful places I've ever been. Friendly people. Very courteous drivers. Spectacular waters.

Oranjestad, Aruba

5 out of 5

St. George's, Grenada

1 out of 5
Beautiful from the boat but scary on land. Shopping is no good and people were very rude and aggressive. Princess needs to take this port off of the itinerary.

Pros: 2nd time on Caribbean Princess. Ship has lots to do and is completley refurbished. 4 pools of which 2 are adult and very few children. Great service. Aruba and Bonaire are spectacular.

Cons: Not a fan of Grenada. People were extremely aggressive and touchy. After our excursion we went immediately back to the boat because we felt unsafe. Be careful. Excurison office needs to be open ALL day, not just in the morning and late afternoon. It was difficult to speak with someone when needed.

Recommends Caribbean Princess? Yes!
