Rare TracieABD Posted July 20, 2012 #2 Share Posted July 20, 2012 We had a great Canada/NE cruise on the CB in 2010. The boat was in terrific shape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carolyn R Posted July 20, 2012 #4 Share Posted July 20, 2012 I love the Caribbean Princess. I have sailed her six times and will be on her this fall to Bermuda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDSue Posted July 21, 2012 #5 Share Posted July 21, 2012 The CB had propulsion problems that required emergency repair that caused the cancellation of three cruises back in March. I was on the first sailing after she was repaired and she was in perfect working order. We had a wonderful, problem-free cruise. I wouldn't hesitate to book her again.

Overall the ship is in good condition and we had a great cruise. Sure, there are a few areas (carpet on a few of the stairs) that need updating but it doesn't detract from the overall cruise experience. I would show some wear and tear if I had 3000+ different people walking on me everyday. Food was very good and the service was excellent. Book your cruise and enjoy.

LaLaS Posted July 21, 2012 #11 Share Posted July 21, 2012 We just returned from a Scandanavian cruise two weeks ago on the CB. No engine problems and the ship is still in good condition. Wouldn't be surprised if it goes in for overhaul in the near future, however! With that said though, I would still sail on her again in the near future.
