voljeep Posted July 2, 2023 #3 Share Posted July 2, 2023 it takes a while for the bars on PC to get set-up and open - so don't expect to take one of the first tenders and go to a bar and get a drink. Also - no fountain soda (included in the package) available on the island - now posters can post their workarounds 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lion1956 Posted July 2, 2023 Author #4 Share Posted July 2, 2023 Thanks for the info, what about food is that included? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capriccio Posted July 2, 2023 #5 Share Posted July 2, 2023 The buffet (hamburgers, hot dogs, chicken, bratwurst and ribs along with salads, fruits, and dessert) was included today. Lemonade, water and ice tea was free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had the Plus pkg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were 2 couples and we rented a "Sanctuary Bungalow" (adults only area) and had lunch catered (bungalow was $300, which we thought was very reasonable). It's air conditioned and gave the four of us a nice "home base". Drink servers passed frequently and there was an upcharge for the lunch, but, the food was different than what was being offered at the buffet and it was SO MUCH better than fighting the crowd at said buffet. Those bungalows go fast, we reserved ours 8 months prior to sailing (we didn't need to be that early, LOL). Also, Princess offers bungalows in a "kid friendly" area (exactly the same bungalows as the Sanctuary ones, just kids are allowed so perfect for a family). Those ones were $275 last year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PMGS247 Posted July 3, 2023 #12 Share Posted July 3, 2023 Interesting reading on the topic of sodas. Last time I was at PC was December 2021. The waitress was downright apologetic and she pointed out that despite the drink package, I would be charged if I wanted a can of coke. She pointed out that if I wanted it mixed with Rum it would be free. She was acutely aware of the irony. It was funny and not her fault nor could she possibly do anything about it...it was like 10am though and I wasn't ready for a rum & coke so I overpaid for my can and moved on with life. The coke was very refreshing. 10/10 would buy again. Sounds like maybe Princess has evolved on this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did not charge me for soft drinks. Maybe I was lucky! I have also read the 'new' Princess Plus includes canned soft drinks ( cannot confirm, have not sailed under the new pkg). If so that probably makes it a moot point..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
