Anyone ever cruised Princess? We are booked on the Crown Princess for a Jan. Caribbean cruise.?

Question

How did you like it?

What was best? Any negatives?

Answer 1

I took one of the big Princess cruises in the Caribbean and was prepared to dislike it because the ship was so large. We were traveling with others, so it was either go on the cruise or not be with them.

I was very surprised and pleased. I never felt the enormity of the ship because it was so well run and there were so many choices for dining and entertainment that there were not long lines. The main diningrooms are small and intimate. They are not nearly as large at Holland America's (which are quite beautiful).

There are many opportunities for entertainment for every interest group. The food is good. Shore excursions are varied and tendering is handled well.

The cabins were lovely and well attended.

I enjoyed the experience.

Answer 2

princess cruiselines have some of the larger cruise ships out there, but in my experience the public rooms hardly seem crowded, the restaurants are  fantastic and the crew is very very friendly.

have a great time

Answer 3

My Wife and i took a 1 anniversary cruise on the Crown Princess, the Previous year we went on the Caribbean Princess. We loved the Caribbean Princess, so we said lets try the new Crown Princess. The Crown Princess was a pleasure to sail on. Everything was perfect, the food both in the main restaurant and the specialty dinning rooms to the hamburger and pizza stations, the entertainment, the staff and the excursions. The only downfall is the elevators, but i do not mind cause i am active and do not mind trekking up and down the stairs. I am not that disappointed with the no late night buffets and finally dinner/buffet like on celebrity. The ship is very accommodating and has more than enough things to do to keep anyone happy. The adult pools are nice, because they do not get to crowded like the 2 main pools that are mobbed by children, and usually murky because of all the sun screen from the kids coming off and making the water look filthy. I love princess and their decision to have the crown princess leave from New York, cause for me it is just 5 minute drive and i am on the ship. The Embarkation is quick and the excursions usually flow well into and out of the ship. I would definitely recommend to anyone to try the Crown Princess and say they were not happy. It is a nice mix of all ages, so you do not have too many kids running around or too many college kids drunk. I give the Crown Princess an A+
