MGnut Posted April 3, 2010 #26 Share Posted April 3, 2010 Mike: Thanks for your review. My DH and I will be on the 4/25 sailing. Really looking forward to this trip, its hubby's retirment gift. I have one question that I saw pop up here lately and of course everyone has a different answer. If you used a CC for your sail n' sign, was a hold placed on the cc for a specific dollar amount at the beginning of the cruise? We have been on 8 Princess cruises, using an AMEX card each time, and have never had a hold put on the card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikjr Posted April 3, 2010 Author #27 Share Posted April 3, 2010 Was it warm enough to sit by the pool during the sea days? I was on the Golden 2 years ago on a Mexico cruise and it was so cold we had to wrap ourselves with towels near the pool. Hope you fared better! The Golden looks so great after the refurbishment!!Thanks for the review! Bill :) Bill... it was actually nice during many of the sea days. we had several sunny days, and many were laying out on the decks. I actually got a nice tan. But on the way back, it was a bit more overcast and cool. It was actually 80 degrees when we returned to Los Angeles. It was the warmest weather we had the whole trip!

Guest trnandru Posted April 15, 2010 #28 Share Posted April 15, 2010 I enjoyed reading your review and hope to be on the Golden within the next year! You commented that the spring (March) cruise was cooler than you are used to stating around 70 degrees. I would imagine that April would bring warmer temperatures.

LazyMary Posted April 30, 2010 #32 Share Posted April 30, 2010 Thank you for your very quick response....we like to bring a portable DVD player and sometimes we are unable to hook it up due to old TVs. Happy sailing to all....JoAnn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruiserkenn Posted April 30, 2010 #33 Share Posted April 30, 2010 Thanks for the great review! I especially enjoyed your comments about the food. Thanks so much! I was happy to hear that the car started right up, upon your return. A great ending to the cruise:) Aloha and Mahalo :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louise P Posted May 2, 2010 #34 Share Posted May 2, 2010 Mike, A great review! We're repeating our end of year cruise on the Golden. This time we hope to "not miss the boat," which we joined in Hilo. Would you happen to have an email address for Alex in Kauai? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gatormomma Posted May 3, 2010 #35 Share Posted May 3, 2010 Our Mini did last June. I'm very close to booking the 3/16/11 Hawaii cruise on the Golden, so all this information has been very useful!! Is there a major differance in the BB class (balcony) and the mini-suite (AE)? thanks!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colo Cruiser Posted May 4, 2010 #36 Share Posted May 4, 2010 I'm very close to booking the 3/16/11 Hawaii cruise on the Golden, so all this information has been very useful!! Is there a major differance in the BB class (balcony) and the mini-suite (AE)? thanks!! The mini will have a sitting area with sofa, and a bathtub. Think if you booked an AE it would probably be a GTY and you would end up with a higher category. A BB is great, make sure its on Caribe deck. The largest balcony half covered.
