  1. My fault for not booking while I was on board last month. We got off the Dream on March 7th and it felt like we came home to a different world. By the time I gor back to LA a couple days later everything had changed.

    I guess we will be doing land trips for Fall break and Spring break 2021. Hopefully pricing will improve in the next 6-8 months so we can get some future cruises scheduled. Right now the only one we have booked is on Princess Discovery for December 2021. 

  2. I am not seeing great pricing at all. Just tried to book our October cruise and the price is now over $500 more than it was about 3 weeks ago. So frustrating. I didn't book it then because, HELLO- Pandemic! NOw the price has shot up so much I will not book it out of sheer principle. Checking other cruise options now for our kids October Fall break from school. May opt for a land trip instead.

  3. I am recovering from knee replacement surgery (48 years old!) and will be about 9 weeks post op when we get there. Hoping to find lovely and relaxing beach with easier entry and not a far walk. Considered Chankanabb as we have not been there before but with 7 large ships in port I thought it would be too crowded. Plus it looks like there would be a far walk to get to the beach.

     

    Thought about Palancar but the cab ride would be $50 round trip. Also looked at Playa Corona but have read mixed reviews, though it looks like maybe it could be a good option. Loved the look of Money Bar but don't think I can get down to the water from there just yet. I will check El Cid and Park Royal.

  4. DH and I did this one in Dec ‘18. Only 6 guests that day and it was awesome. The crew was fantastic and the food was wonderful, especially the ceviche which I had never had before because I don’t like fish. This ceviche was delicious!

    We went to 2 different snorkel spots and we were the only boat in the area. Apparently we went to different places than all the other excursions and I was grateful not to be in the crowds. Snorkeling was great. We also went to a small private beach and there was a woman there selling snacks. Not the greatest beach area and I could have skipped that part.

    over all I would definitely book this again.

  5. Nachi Cocom is sold out so looking for other suggestions. There will be 7 large ships in port when we are there so looking for a beach club that limits the number of guests.

    Doesn't have to be all -inclusive, either way is fine. Just my mom and I so looking for a more chill spot with beautiful beach and great drinks!

  6. The description of the B2 cabin says possible obstructed view. I have looked at many photos and searched review but cannot find anything that shows obstructed view. Also, another cruise site show B2 cabins being on deck 9 & 10 but all photos I find of the ship do not show any balconies on deck 9. Anyone have more info?

  7. We are booked for the Dec 9th 5 day to Cabo. Needed a quick get away.

    Really struggled between Princess and Carnival because of itinerary, Princess arrives a 1pm departs following day at 1 pm. This makes for very limited choices for excursions.

    With the 1pm - 1pm time limit we cannot even get over to Santa Maria Cove or Chileno Bay, so disappointed. We have been to Cabo several times and were hoping to go further out and see new things.

     

    The Carnival 5 day Cabo has 2 full days in Cabo and would allow for all day excursions like the 10 hour Sea of Cortez trips. We have never cruised with Carnival and we absolutely love Princess so finally decided on Princess. My question I guess, is does Princess ever offer a better itinerary in Cabo or is it always this limited. Starting to second guess my choice but not sure I am ready to jump ship and try Carnival.

     

     

  8. We loved Cabo Sails. Myself, DH and 4 kiddos. Amazing time, yummy food, fantastic crew, great snorkeling and awesywhale watching. Cannot say enough good things about the crew. They were so much fun, took a bunch of photos for us and made sure we all had a fabulous day.

  9. Thanks for posting this. We are arriving by cruise ship tomorrow with a port day from 8-5.

    I spent a week in St Maarten with my mother last summer and Mullet Bay was our favorite beach.

    My husband and I have planned to rent a Spyder to cruise around the island visit a couple beaches tomorrow. Are the roads around the island mostly drivable? Don't want to spend all day sitting in traffic.

  10. Debsjc ... We are on the same ship and I am checking too. What I have seen so far is between $4-$7 cab fare depends on where we port.

     

    Recent reports of Emerald beach open, beach bars and restaurants open. Beach in good condition but rocky entry.

    Chairs $7 umbrellas $10.
