Just booked 10/07 Western . 1st time on Princess and 1st time with balcony Anyone stayed in Room 505 on Aloha Deck?Any privacy at all, or can others look down on you. How are desserts on ship, Carnivals were awful. Anywhere that serves just a a deli-style sandwich other than Rm. service? On Western do you tender to all ports Ocho Rios, Grand Caymen, Conzumel.and if so, does everyone go at same time or can you go when you want and come back when you want> Thanks Hughbud
We were on the Aloha Deck on the Sea, and no one could look down on you. There are privacy partitions between the balconies on the sides. The balcony rooms area great, it is so nice to watch the sunrise and sunset from your own area. It's great watching the sailaways and pulling into port. I keep the door open at night to hear the ocean. The food, in general, on Princess has been wonderful including the desserts. The buffet has sandwich meat and cheeses, plus wonderful bread. You will tender in Grand Cayman and probably in Cozumel. Tenders run all day, the big rush is in the morning. You will meet in an assigned area and will be boarded. You can come and go as you please once the rush is over. All passengers are required to be back on board the ship 30 minutes before departure. They will post when the last tender will run. If you miss the last tender, you will be on your own to get to the next port. If you are on an excursion that you booked through the ship, they will wait for you. Hope this helps.
