We had booked this cruise hoping to see fall colors but much of the trees had not yet turned. We booked an overnight stay in Montreal with Princess before embarking on the cruise. Montreal accommodations were nice but the transfer process was lacking. The busses picked us up so late that we didn’t reach the ship until 4:00 pm which caused us to miss out on several hours in Quebec City. The ...
Overall the cruise was very good. ship is dated and could use a facelift…our balcony cabin was fine but with some glitches..had to call guest services right away to fix air conditioning which wasn’t working well. The safe had issues with keypad sticking.. had to call twice for assistance. Balcony was not great and furniture was old one chair even had a big paint splotch on it.
First two nights ...
Chose this cruise because we wanted to see Fall Colors in Canada/New England and had had favorable experiences on Princess in the past.
However, this is an OLD ship (2004 refurbished 2019) and shows its age as well as lack of modern amenities. Although we didn't pay the most for our oceanview cabin we did not expect it to have bunk beds which protruded from the wall on either side of the queen ...
We just returned from a cruise on the Caribbean Princes.
We departed Quebec City and ended in NY.
Overall, the cruise was very disappointing.
Pre-covid we had traveled on two cruises with Princes.
These were much better and based on these experiences we booked the cruise in late Sept. of this year.
The difference is noticeable.
The cruise lines took on huge new debt during the ...
We choose this cruise because it travelled to places in Canada we have never been..... and still haven't been to. We did encounter the pre bits of Hurricane Lee and the Captain made the decision to skip Charlestown, PEI, Halifax, NS and Bar Harbor, MN and shelter for 3 days in Boston. So we missed over 60% of our cruise and spent 3 calm days in Boston for a Hurricane that never came... beyond ...
Oh my so many things to say. I will start positive by saying that the staff in the coral dining room are amazing but the rest are quite inattentive and either not knowledgeable or not helpful.
This cruise is not what I thought it would be.
They have an app that you have to use constantly on board and it is super glitchy. It’s supposed to work do that you can order things and they find you ...
Embarkation was a breeze in Quebec city with the princess medallion. However, navigating the app was very frustrating. Ship was very clean and most of the staff was terrific. Bartenders were outstanding, but dining venues needed more staff and better organization. They have gone completely to anytime dining and you make reservations through the app, IF you're lucky enough to get the time you ...
We recently came back from a 10-day Canada/New England cruise from Quebec City to NYC aboard the Caribbean Princess. While the ship-related aspects were quite good—at times excellent—the itinerary itself made it perhaps our favorite cruises thus far and should be on everyone’s cruise bucket list. Plenty of details about both the ship and the ports in this long review.
Background: My wife ...
Never again will my wife and i sail on princess cruises. I am age 51, this is my 20th cruise (4 princess, 5 ncl, 4 holland america, 3 carnival, 3 royal caribbean, and 1 celebrity) and this by far was my wife and i's worst cruise experience ever! It did not come close to meeting our expectations. The experience was so poor that while on this cruise we canceled an upcoming 7 day mexican riviera ...
First room smelled like sewage so we did not even unpack. Was moved to room the air didn’t work. Then they moved us to the Covid-19’s and isolation section. Did not say a word about being isolated section we just kept seeing more and more doors blocked red stickers on doors. Why would you place at risk seniors in the middle of an isolation section. Is this not elder abuse. I ask if the CDC ...
