The Ship for Many can be referred to as needing updates. Just Did Caribbean Cruise and Canada New England on the Carib Princess. Food exceptional, Buffet More than Adequate, Bars are Above Average, Princess Theater is 50% Good Entertainers. There is NO Climate Control on the Ship other than opening your Door. The Thermistat seems to be just for Show. It is ALWAYS somewhat Cool in the Cabin. Service throughout the Ship is Above Average. If you like Onboard Games in the Piazza there are Really Fun, Ring Toss, Goofy Golf, Bean Bag Games etc. Won a couple Medals Just Fun Stuff for ME. The Caribbean Crowds are younger and PARTY. We were out of Quebec this October..Average age 80, Only 3 kids on the ship. They were under 5 years of age. Go on and Keep a Positive attitude and Allow yourself to have a Fantastic Cruise.
