I KNEW it! You'd love Alfredo's! Belize has a lot of reefs surrounding it and it is a real twisting entrance and exit for the cruise ships. A lot of right and left turns. The navigators earn their money at that port stop. Great video, been on the Sky twice, great to see they have kept up the great service. Can't wait for your next stop!

Our next spot is Costa Maya - with something different this time. We've snorkeled Belize before and it was great (but not as good as Roatan) It'll be interesting when when they finish the new Belize port.

Heard a lot about Princess's pizza. Looking forward to trying it next month. Sanctuary looks so nice. I was surprised it was so empty even on a port day. Cruise Critic had me thinking it sells out as soon as boarding starts.

Our understanding is that it WAS booked almost full by weekly rentals - just that the people with those weeklies didn't show up until the afternoon. So we had it to ourselves early in the day.

To show the level of service in the sanctuary while were on a recent enchanted princess cruise we saw one of the serenity stewards from last year's enchanted princess cruise who was working as a greeter in the dining room and as we walked by her she greeted us by name and said I remember you from the sanctuary last year. I was amazed and thought she probably saw our names on the medallion reader but there was reader nearby!!

We certainly felt like the service in the Sanctuary was a notch above the rest of the ship. Maybe that's where they place their top staff?

Never have been on Sky Princess. Would like to go on Caribbean Princess. Use suntan lotion. Not really a fan of Sanctuary areas. Sky Princess, I think this was t he cruise that your daughter got married on. Prosecco is very good. Cranberry juice is good too. Tea time is always good. Been to Alfredo's on other Princess ships. That was when it was included though. Vegetarian pizza looks good. Used to love Carnival pizza. Holland America pizza isn't good. Or at least not when we were on it. Good you stayed on the ship at Belize. State Department put a warning on people going to Belize. Love Avocado. Some of those cakes look good. Took one cruise with RCCL and it was more than enough. Don't think would go back to Celebrity either, but, for different reasons.

We've been to Belize at least 6 times. We've done the cave tubing and ziplining, also a city tour. There's a lot of poverty in Belize and not a ton to do just at the port, plus the tender ride is pretty far compared to other tender ports. All combined for a relax day instead. Sorry.

I DO understand the point of the sanctuary on a full ship (spring break, Christmas, August etc) but from your experiences, was it so good you would STILL pay a premium for that, if the ship was only 70% full or less? ...and for what it is worth: it was I who said you look like Sean Connery !

The funny thing is that the Sanctuary was booked that week, but with weekly rentals. It appears many of those folks didn't use it all day - most showed up in the afternoon and we had it to ourselves. We liked having our own private spot. On other ships with more pools, we likely wouldn't do Sanctuary, but newer ships with less pools and lounge space makes it more of a premium to us.

What was Carnival like in Europe? Was it full of Europeans or mostly Americans. We’re thinking of an Med cruise but don’t want MSC because to many Europeans that don’t understand personal space.

We did Carnival in northern Europe and it was a 50/50 mix of north American and European. We really enjoyed the European crowd onboard. We then did NCL in the Med and it was 80% Europeans. That was a little different for us as there was a little more of a language barrier.

$220 per day for the big one we had. The loungers are $40 per day. The big cabana may sound like a lot but if you don’t have the drink package then it could be argued that’s a lot of the value.
