Hubby and I are doing our first princess cruise aug 4 on the Caribbean Princess. We also have the plus beverage package.
I just want to get my facts straight about the dining/snack options.
We have our ressies for MDR every night but we might want to switch it up depending on how the tour day went or if it’s a sea day.
oh, and also, with the drink package do we get a refillable cup like some cruise lines have for soda etc? I didn’t think so but wanted to check.
1) So, obviously we have the MDR. I assume open for breakfast daily? Is this usually open also for lunch on sea days?
2) Specialty dining- I don’t think we will do either of the specialty dining venues. But I know those two are options. And I know how to book (if there would be any availability) on the app.
3) Salty dog- upcharge $18 Open only for dinner. Not lunch even on sea days? Worth it? What’s the fav thing to get here?
4) pizza place- by the pool. Free. How late is this one open?
5) international cafe- open 24 hours. For plus peeps, everything here free? Cappuccinos, lattes, food…?
6) Planks bbq- up charge $12 but don’t need ressies. Lunch and dinner? Does this place get crowded for dinner? What’s the fav thing to get here?
7) Steamers seafood- upcharge $12 no ressies needed, lunch and dinner? What’s your fav? We love mussels…I think they have those.
8) marketplace buffet- free, question on beverages…do they have a place here to get an alcoholic drink if we want one? Do servers handle this or do we go up and order somewhere? Any info you want to share about what you liked, what you didn’t like? Things not to miss?
9) vines- Wine (free depending on price of wine) and somewhere I read free food with drink purchase. What if you have a drinks package? Lunch and dinner daily.
10) cones and coffee- all free including premier desserts for beverage package people? What are the hours? Like early 6am? How late?
11) 24 hour room service- continental breakfast free. No fee anytime but some thing have a charge? Like if we got a hot breakfast like eggs/bacon how much would that be?
ok is that all of them? Anyone want to say what meal or something they loved and shouldn’t be missed?
thank you all in advance. We are really excited to try Princess!
