Most disgusting room I’ve ever stayed in. $10,000 suite was gross dirty and mildew beyond imagination.

Sorry that you didn't enjoy the Caribbean Princess. She is a beautiful ship. Did you talk to guest services about your concerns? Try other companies before you give up and enjoy some of the activities on the ship. They usually have something that everyone would enjoy.

We were on the Carrabien Princess last December. We were way too busy to do an inspection of the ship.

Hmmm.... honeymoon and never left the cabin? Thought it cost extra to do things? Obviously the only thing that stuck in the memory was some minor issues, although the mattresses being “small” could be an issue. Oh well, at Miami waiting for the transfer bus. Staff so far is great!

Wow, we can only guess that you went on a 14 day cruise and try to go all out. It's pretty clear you just didn't have a good time from the reviews you gave all your ports. This is just one of those examples if you had followed the comments on this site, you might have chosen differently.

I'm sorry you were dissatisfied, don't give up on cruising. I would try another cruise line.

Wondering if you told the cruise line about this and shared your pictures with them. Guess you will put up with driving issues when vacation starts or the very efficient airport and airlines
