geocruiser Posted May 15, 2013 #1 Share Posted May 15, 2013 Today I just booked a cruise on Caribbean Princess going to Canada & New England. I just canceled a Canada cruise on NCL and booked Princess. Princess is a one week cruise and NCL was for two weeks. I liked the ports of call on NCL better because there were some that I had not been to before. But I do love where Princess is going to take me. It is better for us to leave out of NYC than Boston. We just feel this cruise is better for us. And by the way, I booked our FIRST mini suite! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drews_Cruise Posted May 16, 2013 #5 Share Posted May 16, 2013 Our first (and only)mini was on the Coral and we loved it. Enjoy it.... I know you will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruisingMom2010 Posted May 16, 2013 #6 Share Posted May 16, 2013 We'll be enjoying our first mini 2 weeks from Saturday on the Sapphire. (Vancouver-Alaska) So excited! The main reason we chose it was so my daughter could have the sofa bed, she's only 3 and would be terrified sleeping in a bed coming down from the ceiling. And I'm not sure how comfortable DH and I were having her right on top of us. We were hoping to stay up later than her to read. We also wanted the full size tub because my daughter doesn't take showers yet. Bath time is her favorite time of the day! We are SO looking forward to the trip!

Love.II.Cruise Posted May 16, 2013 #7 Share Posted May 16, 2013 Enjoy the mini! It is hard to go back... actually the only time we go back is if it is for an aft facing balcony on a cold weather cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wallie5446 Posted May 16, 2013 #8 Share Posted May 16, 2013 You are going to really really have a hard time going back to a regular balcony for your next cruise ya know! We had an Emerald deck mini on the Ruby last Nov, wonderful! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geocruiser Posted May 16, 2013 Author #10 Share Posted May 16, 2013 I there more closet space? I guess the bathroom is larger too. I felt that the price was good and it it a one week cruise. Easy flight for where we live too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Janice Romano Posted May 16, 2013 #12 Share Posted May 16, 2013 Had a mini on the Coral loved it. The tub is really long and comfy. The bathroom is a bit bigger, too. Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akeasley Posted May 16, 2013 #13 Share Posted May 16, 2013 The bigger bathroom with the tub makes it wonderful....you'll never want to book a regular room again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seal Posted May 16, 2013 #14 Share Posted May 16, 2013 ENJOY!!!! We never went backwards after the first mini---although we do love aft facing and get a suite most of the time--OK--I'm spoiled now. Nancy:D:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geocruiser Posted May 17, 2013 Author #16 Share Posted May 17, 2013 I know that I will like the mini. Do you find that you spend more time in your cabin when you have a larger room? Before this cruise I have done lots of insides, and then move to outsides then to balcony cabins. I just hope that we used the room more. There is so much to do on board that most times we are not in the room much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lavendar Lace Posted May 17, 2013 #20 Share Posted May 17, 2013 My DH and I booked a mini-suite on the Coral for a Vancouver/Anchorage Alaska cruise. We just loved it! We're tall people, 6'3, 5'11, and really enjoyed the extra bathroom space and, of course, the queen bed. We also feel that a balcony is a must for an Alaskan cruise. So much to see!! You're not fighting for space on the public decks to see something. We've booked a mini for our Canada/New England 10 day cruise this Oct.6-16 on Emerald Princess. Looking forward to it!!

You'll totally enjoy the ^ Above ^ ! :) I especially enjoy the full size couch to lay down and read when DH sometimes wants to take an afternoon nap.
