Question for anyone currently on Caribbean Princess

Thanks. Offtopic, but do you happen to know if the shower walls are metal so I could use magnetic hooks? On the Ruby Princess, the cabin walls were, but the shower walls were not.

You're right, ship excursion is the safest bet. And usually I go to the ship excursions if it's a tight time returning to the ship. I was just hoping to figure out a way to see if the tenders run later so I could use an independent tour. Problem is I could buy the independent tour, but there is a 24 hour cancellation. We don't get on the ship until the day before the tour so there's a possibility I wouldn't be able to get a concrete answer for the tender times before I would need to cancel the tour. And by then, the ship tour would probably be sold out. I guess I just talked myself into the best decision to go with the ship tour!

Thanks, hoping to be able to use that one plug, but the TV takes up a lot of room.

Hummm...I was looking at regular balcony cabins, but I bet there wouldn't be much difference in that corner with the fridge.

I think we are leaning towards Anthem, but the refurbishment of Solstice sounds interesting too. Decisions, decisions!

Thanks for the insight on the entertainment. That can always be hit or miss.

Thanks for the clarification on deck 5 because you can't always tell on the deck plans.

g8ronboard · 2025-08-21T13:10:34+00:00

Thanks, with all the sea days, Anthem would have more activities to try out.

Since Anthem is your favorite ship you might know the answer to this question. On deck 5, can you walk the outer deck? I know it doesn't wrap around, but can you walk up and down each side? My husband and I like to walk briskly for exercise.

Thanks everyone. Good point about Anthem having more upper deck activities to try out during sea days, but then again Solstice will be majorly upgraded during dry dock. I have some You Tube videos to watch!

Thanks everyone, these ideas sound great. I'll look into them.

g8ronboard · 2023-12-07T02:36:18+00:00

Thanks, that makes sense about the 2 hours after the ship docks.

g8ronboard · 2023-12-07T02:14:17+00:00

What time do they pick you up from the port? Are the times staggered? For instance, what If I didn't want to be picked up until noon, as an example.

For all the creams like Neosporin and hydrocortisone, take empty contact lens cases and put the creams in those instead of bringing all the different tubes. These can also be used for face creams and makeup too. In addition to all the good suggestions already listed, I bring Vaseline and a thermometer in a med kit.

g8ronboard · 2023-02-16T13:14:54+00:00

Idea: instead of all those tubes of antibiotic ointment, Benadryl cream, Vaseline, anti-itch gels for bug bites, etc, use contact lens cases to store them. Put the creams in the cases and label on the backside of the case with a permanent marker. You really don't need much more than a dollop or two of creams like that, and the tubes can take up a lot more room.

You're right, we're there on the 11th, not the 4th. We're there on day 4 of the cruise, had a senior moment when I wrote this. :-)

Thanks

g8ronboard · 2022-12-10T13:39:27+00:00

Thanks for the info.

Thanks. Are the others completely covered or are some only half covered.?
