While not as wonderful as the speciality restaurants, food was great and service from the servers was excellent. Entry staff however were not friendly at all.

Worst Cruise Experience yet!

Good 14 night Canada and New England cruise.

Good itinerary and New England in the fall is nature at its best but the Caribbean Princess is 15 years old and showing its age despite a recent refit
