Review summary

This was a wonderful cruise- 20 days. We really enjoyed it! Unfortunately, longer cruises like this are hard to come by without crossing an ocean!

Very enjoyable Caribbean Cruise

The itinerary was fabulous. Did not care for Martinique. Crown Princess was a bit disappointing. She was showing her age.

Fun in the Sun
