Caribbean Princess Cruise Reviews - Reviews

Loved my Cruise at Princess. Beyond our expectation. Food, service, cleanliness, kids club, itinerary,... worth the trip. The islands are one of the most beautiful from Caribbean. Bonaire was a very positive surprise. Never had a chance to swim so close to a huge ship with so clean and transparent water. Loved the kids club. They were all very professional and patient. Every day they had different activities for the kids. The only disappointment was the noise in the cabin late at night during performances ( be aware of the noise if staying above theater). We enjoyed so much that we are already considering the next cruise with Princess.

Horrible food, Lousy small rooms, no entertainment, crew that didn’t care or were indifferent. Really old old ship! Don’t waste your money!

Overall we enjoyed the cruise and the ports of call. Our biggest issue was the cabin bathrooms. The shower was so small that if you dropped your sponge or soap, you could not bend over to pick it up. Compared to NCL, Carnival, and Royal Caribbean, shower is by far the smallest and most uncomfortable. Also, there was no working ventilation system to draw out the steam, moisture, or air from the small bathroom and when inquiring the steward, we were told the whole ship was having trouble with this issue. It made it uncomfortable for our family of 3 to use the bathroom after each other, as one person takes a shower, and the bathroom gets so steamy and hot for a long time that you really try to avoid going in there if you can help it. Smell, same uncomfortable concept. Some common areas on the ship seemed to struggle with the AC too.

There was one problem. My friend hurt her back and neck and we were told to go to the acupuncture. We saw him 5 times and he stuck her twice. When he saw it was getting worse he never told us to go to the doctor. All he did was bad mouth the doctor and charged us over $400.00. When we went to the medical she was immediate put on and IV for pain. She was so bad off that she missed two shore excursions. One was swimming with the Dophins. The medical around $250.00. She did not get reimbursed on any of her shore excursions because we did not get the insurance. So needless to say she lost over $800.00 because of the acupuncture. Other wise the trip was great. I want to go again.

Cruise was very good. There are a few issues the Princess needs to address on this ship. Such as elevators out of service many times, really cold on ship, sewer smell in different areas, no towel animals, no receipts given anymore, no theme nights, need more plugs in cabins for all of the electronics, post Princess Patter around ship in different places and have current postcards on ship of ports visited not past cruises like Panama Canal. Overall it's a beautiful ship.

Loved this cruise. Most of the ports of call had great excursion options. Jamaica and Colombia had fewer options but would still go with limited expectations for these ports. In Jamaica, we went to Blue Hole waterfalls which is not on the ships list but booked separately and really enjoyed this natural feature. Columbia we walked the old city. The Panama Canal and Colon was interesting and worth the trip to see a marvel of human engineering. Loved the rainforest excursions in Costa Rica. In Grand Caymans, the turtles center and the boat with glass sides were both great. While the ship is smaller we found enough to do by playing games on our own in additional to the ship activities.

As a result of this cruise, we put down a deposit for another. Although it was our first cruise, Princess really surpassed our highest expectations. Looking forward to seeing how they can impress when we sail next! Would highly recommend this cruise line.

Great experience overall. This was our honeymoon and we can't wait to book our next getaway with Princess.

Ship was amazing - especially the food and the entertainment. Wide variety of activities available.

2nd time going on this cruise to Panama. 3 years ago saw the original locks and now the new locks. would like to see more options for excursions for people who aren't thrill seekers.

The cruise was fabulous. Princess fulfills the slogan of 'Come Back New'. You know that every member of the ship's cruise is there to fulfill your wishes. The friendly, pleasant atmosphere is evident all over the ship. It was fun, relaxing, and interesting!

Won't do this one again. The ship didn't seem to have stabilizers and we rocked and rolled the whole time. The ship also shuttered loudly and pipes rattled. Very hard to sleep.

All in all I would do this cruise again except I would stay on the ship in Trinidad

We made a good choice in booking this trip to see specifically the new Panama Canal. What an undertaking that was in making and operating it.

This was an excellent ship, great customer service and food and the port stops were excellent.

This was a wonderful cruise. The selected parts were outstanding. The Caribbean Princess is a well run ship.

I chose this cruise for the itinerary including the Panama Canal, and I'm really glad I did. It was our first Princess Cruise, and I'd consider Princess again. The average age of cruisers was considerably older than other cruises we've been on, but the time of year, length of cruise, and cost affects that. The anytime dining schedule needs work.

This was our first Princess Cruise and we will sail with them again, knowing that their goal is to provide a quality cruise and to get you to spend money on the ship.

Overall Caribbean Princess was a great first-time experience for me. I'm very independent and I wait for no nam or woman so I roomed on my own, I will more than likely not go with a group again as I don't need folks checking up on my because I'm not doing what they think I should be doing, No yourself and plan accordingly. On vacation do what you enjoy.

Our best cruise so far. Will do Princess Cruise again in the future. Has a wonderful time. Food quality is the best. Enjoy all the entertainment on board the ship.
