mdamron Posted June 25, 2019 #101 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Thanks meatloafsan, we are looking at a cruise next year on the Caribbean and was wondering on this. Not a deal breaker, but certainly a benefit. Once we got the on demand on the Royal it makes it hard to back track to the fixed stations. Actually, since you are from Canada, we are looking at the Quebec to Ft Lauderdale cruise. We did it before but got weathered out of several ports (but still had a great cruise) and want to do it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sure a few of us will be posting our comments/review after the sailing. If you want to know anything in particular, ask now and I will try my best to answer on our return.

I think burgers are also available every day. At the buffet selections of beef, chicken and fish are mostly available. Not the same every day. For the Salty Dog Grill here is the menu https://www.princess.com/downloads/pdf/ships-and-experience/ships/products/menus/Salty-Dog-Grill-Menu.pdf Thanks for the menu. I wonder if open for Day 1 lunch ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pink flamingo52 Posted June 26, 2019 #109 Share Posted June 26, 2019 We are on the ship now and having a great time! The AC is hit or miss. Our room is comfortable but not cool. Last night warm in casino and theater. Coffee is good at International and swirls. Ship really is in great shape and service excellent! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FloaterBoat Posted June 27, 2019 #114 Share Posted June 27, 2019 On 6/23/2019 at 9:23 AM, wumav said: We are onboard the CP right now. So far I’ve been underwhelmed by the air conditioning, especially in the stateroom. The AC is definitely “working” and probably within the company’s desired range, but if you prefer to sleep at any temperature that resembles cool, you will likely be disappointed. they seem to keep the temperature at just *barely* below a sweat (if you don’t use a sheet or blanket) - and call it a success. Let me know now if anyone has any other questions from onboard. What kind of room are you in? This is disappointing. I like our room chilly. I hope this isn't the case when we're on there in a few months. We're in the suite, usually comes with 2 thermostats. Helps a bit with the temp control...if they're operating properly.

I do believe that they have a floor for how cool the A/C will get, and it's usually warmer than we like it, but I can find it tolerable most of the time. I'm hoping having an inside room, we can keep it a bit cooler with no windows. Fingers crossed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiserdru Posted June 27, 2019 #117 Share Posted June 27, 2019 Anyone aboard that is into wine??? Some times Princess offers a box of 3 wines for a special price and I am wondering if they are doing that on the Caribbean Princess. Also, has anyone attended the Maitre d'/Sommelier's Wine Club wine tasting (the one that costs $25/person)? I would be interested in what wines they are offering. The Grapevine Wine Tasting is of interest, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pink flamingo52 Posted June 27, 2019 #118 Share Posted June 27, 2019 Last night they had slight propulsion issues but it was fixed right away. Our room felt warmer than usual so we reported it to the Steward who has been great. What dummies we are. Room was nice and cool since last night. The Cruise dIrector and his assistant are two of the best we have seen. The Marriage match game was hysterical. The cruise truly has been an awesome one.

It's been wonderfully spring-like weather the last week - mid to high 80 range (Fahrenheit) outside so we've had the windows open all day. I have used the ceiling fans though. It will go back to being over 100 degrees every day soon - likely max around 110 - 114. We will be running the AC then of course but will never turn it below 81 degrees.
