This cruise is geared towards an older crowd. We are both 70, so it was good for us. This itinerary is not for someone who is looking for a swinging party crowd, nor would it be good for children, as there were very few kids on board. I assume most children would be in school.

Access the front of the ship when going through the Panama Canal. On deck 11 the door for crew only can be opened to access the front of the ship.

there were a lot of sick elderly on board, also wearing surgical masks and weren't quarantined to their quarters. I currently have the flu, thank you for the souvenir.

Be sure to bring clothes for 2 formal nights. Our travel agent said we did not have to do this and it caused a problem.

This was our first cruise. I think the Coral Princess was a good size ship for a newbie. It was very convenient to make our way around the ship to whatever we wanted to participate in.

It's a good ship, but small. If you're expecting a lot of room and things to do, this may not be your ship.

Beware when booking a balcony cabin. Some are partially obstructed due to some cabins jut out over the water. We were in B506 and had a wall with the cabbies jutting out so we had no view to front of ship. This was very upsetting as we booked early had a choice of cabins but were never told about obstruction as it doesn’t show on ship plans and cabin was no cheaper than the others. Not that this made a difference as we wanted full view. Luckily we were able to change cabins. HOWEVER BE VER AWARE as the cabins which jut out are at two s cations of the ship.

Make sure you have a room with a window. And maybe don’t bring your 18-20 year olds unless they are cool with doing trivia and other stuff on the ship because they don’t have a teen room for them.

Just enjoy yourself. Be ready to walk and be prepared to try to understand the staff.

If you like Oceanview cabins. Try twin beds in lieu of a queen. MUCH more room with twins.

Definitely do not forget to visit The International Cafe. Great coffee(s), desserts and quick bites. Not as good for “people watching” as The International Cafes on the other Princess ships which are located in ships’ atrium, but it is still a good bet! AND don’t fail to purchase the coffee card!
