Overview
Launched in 2004, the 3,140-passenger Caribbean Princess received a major refurbishment in April 2017 to update amenities such as the movie theater and adults-only sun deck. Grown-ups will also enjoy the adults-only Sanctuary, where they can sip craft cocktails in private cabanas.
Guests can choose from 12 dining venues, including three main dining rooms and five specialty restaurants. Lodging options are just as varied; travelers have the choice of Interior, Oceanview, Balcony, Mini-Suite, Club Class and Suite category staterooms. Standard amenities include minifridges, flat-screen TVs and refreshed decor, and more than half of the exterior cabins offer balconies. What's more, each guest on all Caribbean Princess sailings after September 2018 will receive an OceanMedallion wearable device to unlock his or her stateroom, make onboard payments, track down friends and family and more.
Onboard activities and entertainment range from sports courts and mini-golf to more enriching pursuits, like educational programs in partnership with Discovery Communications and Festivals of the World cultural events. Thanks to the ship's 1,200 crew members, Caribbean Princess ensures that service is a priority.
In 2018-19, Caribbean Princess departs from Fort Lauderdale, Quebec City and New York City for sailings in Panama, the Caribbean, Canada and New England.
