LoveAces Posted May 14, 2011 #1 Share Posted May 14, 2011 We are two families with 4 adult kids around the age of 20-23 and have taken Caribbean cruises with Celebrity and Princess every December for 3 years and loved it. As we live in the Los Angeles area, we are thinking about Holland America's Mexican cruise out of San Diego this December. We heard it's mainly senior citizens....has anyone taken this cruiseline/destination and enjoyed it? Our kids love the cruise nightlife and we want to be sure they'll enjoy this as well. Thanks for any input! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willsot Posted May 14, 2011 #2 Share Posted May 14, 2011 Do you most prefer Celebrity or Princess? HAL is more like Celebrity than Princess in my opinion. Nightlife on HAL will be much more subdued than Princess, but I disagree on the senior citizen comments. If you are planning to sail anytime around the holidays in December there will be a younger than normal crowd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piscesgal223 Posted May 14, 2011 #3 Share Posted May 14, 2011 My parents and I did the Mexican Riviera cruise in early January 3 years ago and there were quite a few families, and even a few babies. On our Caribbean cruise a few months ago there were 250 kids yet the ship didn't feel overrun with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruz chic Posted May 14, 2011 #4 Share Posted May 14, 2011 I cruise both HAL and Princess and find them to be a lot alike. I found the food on the Sapphire to be a lot better then I've had on any HAL cruise recently. Princess is likely to be more lively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
