momrox1 Posted January 9, 2017 #1 Share Posted January 9, 2017 Because of pricing I am now considering the Caribbean Princess again. I swore last time I was on it that I wouldn't again.:rolleyes: My main concerns were that the ship seemed run down. The Sanctuary pool was not working, the hot tubs in that area were not hot, showers there were broken . Have these issues been fixed? This is the area where we spend most of our time so this was a big issue for us. I'd love to hear from someone who recently sailed it. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMan Posted January 9, 2017 #2 Share Posted January 9, 2017 Sailed last month and had no problems. I believe she goes to dry dock in a month as well Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hm9912 Posted January 9, 2017 #3 Share Posted January 9, 2017 We were on the Caribbean Princess last month. Wife used the fitness center and the spa. No complaints. Neither one of us used any pools. The highlight for me was lobster one night. I ordered three of them as they were not large The shrimp cocktail were also small so I ordered two of those. The volcano on the children's menu made for a nice desert. Overall we had a nice cruise. Howard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

satxdiver Posted January 9, 2017 #5 Share Posted January 9, 2017 We were on the CB in September on a TA and in March for a B2B. I used the gym, hot tub and steam sauna without any problem. As noted below the CB will be in drydock March 25 to April 5 of this year. When we were on the ship in March they replaced the carpet in the HC late at night and they replaced several doors from the elevator banks on the lido deck. In September they were replacing lights on the lido deck that we saw. Maintenance is a continual process on a cruise ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baronessk Posted January 9, 2017 #7 Share Posted January 9, 2017 We were on the Caribbean for 13 days over Christmas. NO complaints, other than no snow in the Atrium. The cruise director said it was broken, but I think he was just covering. Hot tubs in Sanctuary were HOT. She does go in to dry dock soon. Not sure when you're looking to sail, but I'd get back on her tomorrow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

floridalover5623 Posted January 9, 2017 #9 Share Posted January 9, 2017 She was Dec. 17 to 30. Glad to hear it. I'd like to bring her a gift for her special consideration in past cruises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
