Review summary

This was my first cruise (7 days, 3 Caribbean ports) so I wasn’t sure how I would like it, but I was blown away! Loved every second. Caribbean Princess was outstanding. The ship has recently undergone major renovations which show up in a good way in terms of modernization of facilities. Meals were great including the buffet (good variety and consistency). I went to one specialty dining restaurant (Crown Grill) where I had the surf and turf. The steak and lobster both cooked to perfection; however, they were out of the one wine I really wanted- but whatever, there’s always more wine! The bars were all good with friendly staff. I never went to Club Fusion because it was always oddly empty and some events cancelled. Otherwise there were good events to hang out at while at sea. Not so much a family cruise ship because there’s less stuff for kids to do (e.g. no water slides or other things you might find on a Carnival ship). My group (mid-20s in age) was definitely some of the younger people on the boat and we liked going to Skywalkers at night (not the best club in the world but it was fine). People were into dressing up for the formal nights; I didn’t notice anyone out of the dress code at dinner. The table games at the casino were fun, but some of dealers made mistakes (that worked out in my favor). Overall, the crew and staff were accommodating making this an easy relaxing cruise. I’d highly recommend this ship.
