This was my first cruise... by camharv

Sail date: /
Ship: Caribbean Princess

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.

Sail date: /
Ship: Caribbean Princess

The quality of service has declined significantly since we last cruised with Princess about 5 years ago, so that was disappointing. Food and shows were pretty good.

It was ok by sharonrae50

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: Caribbean Princess / Destination: Caribbean - Western

Not very happy. Food was so so. Had better on other cruises. I lost 6lbs. I had wire in my salad. Told waiter. I asked numerous times to borrow a cork screw, never received.. The electric outlet could not hold a charge. I will not be back on this line.. Did not like going to such poor ports With trafficking and people begging for $$. We have enough in USA. Ty

Good but not as good as... by lgcpa

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Caribbean Princess / Destination: Caribbean - Western

First time on Princess Cruise. I've been on 3 other cruise line and the best one so far is Royal Caribbean. Royal has the best entertainment and food. I like the fact that I can schedule the entertainment ahead of time. You cannot reserve seats but at least I know I can see the show at the time I reserved. Caribbean Princess was okay. Talking to other people on the ship, they were not impressed with the food. And other family said they didn't think there was enough activities for their kids. Excursions were good. I booked all of them ahead of time. The only one I was disappointed in was the Tulum excursion at Cozumel. It was not worth the money.

Meh by roseym

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Caribbean Princess / Destination: Caribbean

Food in main dining room was "just okay," about what you would expect for catered dinner at a so-so wedding. On day one, I thought the buffet choices were good. By day seven, the same exact choices had grown tiresome. The room steward was great and some of the staff were wonderfully friendly. Some, however, were a little bit surly. The finishes were nice enough, in concept, but they have grown a little thread-bare in actual appearance. Time for a renovation.

Princess Caribbean Cruise by Abbeycay253

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Caribbean Princess / Destination: Caribbean - Western

The staff were all friendly and nice, enjoyed the food in the island dining room, there were plenty of good movies to watch from the t.v. in your cabin, bathroom smelled a little, got a little dizzy from the boat rides to the ports, Grand Cayman and Belize was filled with lots of souvenir shops, I got a little scared at night when the ship was rocking back and forth a lot, loved how they had a fitness center so you can burn off all those calories from all the food you ate. Overall, the cruise was awesome!

Unbelievable by seckel

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Caribbean Princess / Destination: Caribbean - Western

I missed out on a lot because of the outings booked they took to long or crammed too much together. There were things I wanted to do in Grand Cayman but couldn't. I wanted to go to 2 places but the only thing you had did everything so I only go 10 mins here and 15 min there. Other than this I loved it. Next time I will book personal tours and not use the ship ones.

It was a great cruise.... by fla97

Sail date: /
Ship: Caribbean Princess

It was a great cruise. I had just gotten off the Carnival Sunshine two weeks earlier and although both cruises were a lot of fun their was noticeable differences. I can say the service on the Caribbean was excellent. Staff was every where trying to help....from getting you juice and drinks on the lido and in the buffet. All the bar tenders were great and remembered your drinks. We also had the drink package and Princess lost money on us. The heist game was fun and we won, which made it so much better. Food in dining room was great. We had anytime and were still able to have the same servers, who I might add were terrific. I mentioned the first night how come the bread is not warm. They heated it up for me and every night after they brought me warm bread. There was an older crowd on board...I am a senior citizen and seemed younger than most, so the night life was sparse. Shows were okay nothing great. Trivia was always fun...we won a few times. Casino was tight...not a winner there. No problem finding a deck chair around the pools. I would recommend this cruise for people who like great service, laid back atmosphere, and good food.

Disappointed by Mikiesbaby

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Caribbean Princess / Destination: Caribbean

Princess is going the way of their sister ship Caravel without the price discounts. It’s service has gone from excellent to ok! They have cut entertainment, food and services. They are nickel and dime you to death! And Customer Seevice is not good. May be a time to switch cruise ships .

Caribbean cruise by mrnic

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Caribbean Princess / Destination: Caribbean

I always felt Princess Cruises were the best cruise line until this one. It is now just average. This is because they did not do as they promised. They promised on board credits because they removed one of the Ports. We asked about this and were asked for proof. We found the proof and were told that the contract was changed and we needed to contact our travel agent. Because of the poor cell phone connection was poor we lost connection three times. The agent could not get the information to us. We returned to the ships customer services and were told that they did not have enough informational help us. I paid for 7 people in four rooms. Princess has moved down in our opinion.

My first cruise by biglarrrr

Sail date: / Traveled as: Large Group
Ship: Caribbean Princess / Destination: Caribbean - Western

Overall, for my first-ever cruise, it was fantastic. I really can't wait for my next cruise. I would definitely recommend the Princess Caribbean Western as well. It was a beautiful, clean ship and the service, staff, accommodations, food, entertainment and activities were all very good.
