Dan Askin Posted November 8, 2009 #1 Share Posted November 8, 2009 We're kicking off this winter's Caribbean cruise season … and you're coming with us! Warm up for your upcoming Caribbean voyage (whether it's a virtual voyage -- or a real one) with Cruise Critic's Dan Askin on a seven-night Western Caribbean cruise aboard Crown Princess. But before we head south, we want to know: What makes a perfect Caribbean cruise for you? Tell us by voting in our Caribbean season kick-off polls, where we'll let you make choices for me on dining, spa treatments, entertainment and island adventures. Spa. Choose the most compelling spa or fitness service -- whether relaxing or just plain "exotic" -- on Crown Princess (no seaweed, please...) -- and I'll share the post-treatment calm with you (and bring back a souvenir from the cruise for one randomly selected voter). And after you vote, tell us about your idea of a perfect spa service onboard -- and let us know if we're missing your top choice. Voting for this poll will close on Wednesday at 5 p.m. EST. **Haven't Voted for Your Cozumel Excursion? Vote Here. **Haven't Voted for Your Top Dining Style? Vote Here. **Haven't Voted for Your Evening Entertainment? Vote Here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrysalis Posted November 8, 2009 #2 Share Posted November 8, 2009 I am not sure about the teeth whitening service. If you hand them in before 9am, do you get them back before late seating, or do you have to wait until the next day? Perhaps Elites get the "presto", and unlimited service. :confused: Will the Maitre 'd check that you are wearing them on Formal Nights, or it is OK just to keep 'em in your pockets?

Dan Askin Posted November 8, 2009 Author #4 Share Posted November 8, 2009 To my chagrin, seaweed is out to an early lead -- spa receptionist called it their best treatment. Was told by a fellow cruiser that you actually wear a "paper diaper," which should come out great in the photos... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whimsy Posted November 8, 2009 #5 Share Posted November 8, 2009 A massage at sea sounds wonderful! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denise40 Posted November 8, 2009 #6 Share Posted November 8, 2009 I would love to have any type of massage on board, preferrably where you could hear the waves crashing against the ship with my dh along side, candles burning and some wine flowing. Now that sounds relaxing to me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caribbean Sunsets Posted November 8, 2009 #7 Share Posted November 8, 2009 My choice would be the message. Maybe not the seaweed message but definitely a message. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisergal 1 Posted November 8, 2009 #8 Share Posted November 8, 2009 I would love to have a massage at sea while hearing the waves crash against the ship. Nothing would be more relaxing than that, especially if I didn't have to pay for it:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pam in CA Posted November 8, 2009 #9 Share Posted November 8, 2009 On my HAL cruise last January, I had a deep skin facial and massage that was fabulous. I really thought my skin felt better than it had in years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Go-Bucks! Posted November 8, 2009 #10 Share Posted November 8, 2009 I've had many massages, but the hot stone massage I got last year on the Coral far surpassed any of them. I'm willing to try other types, like seaweed, but don't think I want to wear a paper diaper. (???). I also had a really good facial once and was so relaxed that I fell asleep and woke myself up by snoring! I was so embarrased, but the girl doing the facial was so nice and said it just proved that she was doing a good job and helping me relax. :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albertares Posted November 8, 2009 #11 Share Posted November 8, 2009 I chose the Seaweed Massage because I love massages! I've had a hot stone massage on the Coral Princess which was absolutely wonderful! I also did the Ionithermie Slimming Detox which was OK, but I lost vey few inches!! (I wasn't really expecting it to do much.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caribensun Posted November 10, 2009 #13 Share Posted November 10, 2009 The seaweed massage, I want to try it on my upcoming cruise. Have it in a cabana, listening to the ocean, with a slight caribbean breeze blowing in late afternoon. A diaper -really?. Want to see the photos.

Dan Askin Posted November 10, 2009 Author #14 Share Posted November 10, 2009 Let me look into whether or not you can get the seaweed treatment in a cabana (in the adults-only Sanctuary space) ... not to say it's going to win. There's still time left for a swing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
