Caribbean Princess Ship to Undergo Major Renovation

By: Caribbean Journal Staff - March 16, 2017

Princess Cruises’ Caribbean Princess ship will undergo an extensive renovation, the company announced this week.

The multimillion-dollar renovation will include new offerings focusing on families, including a Camp Discovery Youth & Teen Center, upgraded “Movies Under the Stars” and interconnecting staterooms.

The ship will also be wired for the company’s new Ocean Medallion tech offering coming in the 2018 summer Caribbean season.

“With new amenities catering to families, Caribbean Princess not only provides comfort and technology to stay connected but enriching experiences that can be shared together as a family or in our new Camp Discovery Youth & Teen Center – all renovated with the goal of helping our guests create lifelong memories,” said Jan Swartz, president of Princess Cruises.

The ship will also see the addition of 3,200 new “Princess Luxury Beds,” developed in collaboration with sleep expert Dr Michael Breus and HGTV designer Candice Olson.

The renovation will take place during a two-week dry dock.
