We are booked on two b2b in Oct/Nov.....one goes over to the Marquesas.....on the Pacific Princess......too much of the same thing?????....as really only the one extra place to see....Thanks....

 

my wife thinks the one that goes around Tahiti and then goes down to Australia....happens once a year might be a better choice??? thoughts

Our last few cruises have all been long cruises from about 28 days to 49 days on the Grand Princess last winter around South America. We tend to look for b2b cruises. We are doing a b2b on the Ocean Princess in 3 weeks starting in Hawaii, sailing around a few Hawaiian islands then sailing for Tahiti. We'll stay on the ship and do the French Polynesian cruise. We have done the French Polynesian cruise before and loved it. You can't go wrong wit a Tahitian cruise!!

Regardless, I am not going to worry. He also wrote another negative review in 2011. Just one of this people that is never happy I imagine.

 

Cannot wait to sail in a few weeks!

We spent 26 days on the Reflection on a b2b in October. Loved the ship. It had great staff and we particularly had a wonderful waiter!! You'll have a great cruise!

Thanks for your review. We're on the Ocean Princess in January for a b2b - Hawaii to Tahiti and then sailing around Tahiti and we're in the same cabin that you were in - 8002.

Got my pre-cruise email from Princess and it says our Maitre d' on our upcoming Ocean Princess cruise is Luigi Pascale. We sail on the Ocean Princess Jan 29, 2014.

We were on a 49 day cruise on the Grand Princess and someone from our roll call had recommended small magnets to attach important notes to the walls. I put our roll call calendar up (along with a few pictures). It worked great! I also took a few plastic clothes pegs and used them to hang things on the clothes line in the shower as well as to the back of our chairs on our balcony.

We are on the Silhouette for a TA in April....thanks for sharing. (I think;))

Further comments:

Storage is limited but we made it work. Balcony is not covered so even though we were on a Baltic cruise (temps were in the 30 C's) it was very hot on the balcony. So hot you couldn't step on the balcony floor in your bare feet!!! I loved an aft balcony, but I'm not sure I'd choose it for a Caribbean cruise

Can anybody tell me anything about cabin 8066 on the Tahitian Princess. Would this be a good choice selection, or should I stay away from the aft cabins. Also, any noise that we would hear inside, how's the scenery from the balcony, and would the balcony be the same size as any other, bigger or smaller.

We were on the Tahitian Princess at the end of April. We were in an owner's suite on deck 7. We originally were on deck 8 but we read on cc about the noise from deck 9 so we moved down.

I loved being on the aft. It was the first time for us and I'm sure we would do it again. The view is great, but I couldn't see over the railing when I was sitting down. The railings is solid, not see through plastic like the side balconies. We ate breakfast every morning on our balcony and had 2 dinners out there. It was wonderful. I didn't find it noisey at all. I felt very little motion (and I get sea sick). At night it was just a gentle rocking; it put me to sleep. You'll love it.

We're trying late dinner on our upcoming cruise for the same reasons already mentioned. Thought it would give us more time after being on an excursion, more time by the pool...or whatever we happen to be doing that day. We had first seating on our Alaskan cruise and that worked well for us then too.
