Wotan758 Posted February 27, 2017 #1 Share Posted February 27, 2017 We are a senior couple and we want some advice. Which Caribbean cruise is more suitable for us. With less kids and young people. We plan a cruise for next May. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted February 27, 2017 #2 Share Posted February 27, 2017 You might want to look at Celebrity or Holland America. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisdog Posted February 27, 2017 #3 Share Posted February 27, 2017 I am a senior also, and my DW and I really enjoy the eastern cruise. She enjoys shopping and I like to just walk around and people watch. We are not beach people anymore, too hot and don't need sunburn. We are doing the western this year and so we will have a semi beach day at Labadee, but probably just shopping at Fairmouth and Cozumel. Do either one, you can just look at the places you stop at from the ship and enjoy having the whole ship to yourself, very relaxing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
39august Posted February 27, 2017 #4 Share Posted February 27, 2017 You need to avoid Oasis class ships, of which Harmony is one. Lots and lots of children and quite the "go, go" vibe. We just sailed both HOTS and Allure in the past 3 months and have decided not to sail that class again. By the way, when we sailed both ships it was NOT school holidays and there were still LOTS of children school age and younger on board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BillOh Posted February 27, 2017 #5 Share Posted February 27, 2017 We are a senior couple and we want some advice.Which Caribbean cruise is more suitable for us. With less kids and young people. We plan a cruise for next May. What part of May? Late April, Earl May is a great time, Spring break is over, Summer vacation hasn't started. We love traveling this time of year. On the bigger ships like Harmony or the Oasis class you may still get some kids, but the ship is big enough to avoid them for the most part.

We have sailed many cruises in this time period and it is a little lighter on kids and I always say the Oasis class is big enough to draw people away from the things I am interested in.

cb at sea Posted February 27, 2017 #7 Share Posted February 27, 2017 Just remember....if they aren't YOUR kids, you can ignore them! There are plenty of places on a ship where kids won't be.....steer clear of the pool on sea days, any you'll be just fine! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oneputt18 Posted February 27, 2017 #8 Share Posted February 27, 2017 You might want to look at Celebrity or Holland America. We just did Celebrity Equinox 11 day western, 5 children on the ship.
