satxdiver Posted September 29, 2019 #5 Share Posted September 29, 2019 Get a minisuite for the larger bathroom and tub/shower. Plus the cabin has a love couch and barrel chair in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on the CC photos for the Island it’s an open shower in accessible cabins which I think is standard. https://www.cruisecritic.com/photos/ships/island-princess-279/accessible-balcony-cabin-368622/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The shower is roll-in as shown above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waltd Posted September 29, 2019 #10 Share Posted September 29, 2019 Anyone else have issues getting into the bathtubs for a shower? You have to step up into the bathtub and the walls of the bathtub are curved more at the bottom then a traditional tub. If you have short legs and are not careful you step in and onto the side of the tub. Makes it a bit tricky for anyone with mobility issues. And forget it if you are tall. The ceiling is rather low for us tall folks. I kind of remember them having grab rails so it's not all bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me the tub was not a plus. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

satxdiver Posted September 30, 2019 #13 Share Posted September 30, 2019 At 6 foot with the usual physical problems I have not problem getting into the shower in a mini. The nice part is that instead of the normal fixed shower head, the showers have a removable shower head and holder that can be moved up or down. In my case up to the highest point although I usually take the head loose and hold it in my hand. All Princess ships I have been on have the same bathroom setup. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fredflint Posted September 30, 2019 #14 Share Posted September 30, 2019 The tub is a great place to do some laundry, we had a jacuzzi tub and with a little bit of detergent worked very well at washing my clothes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
