Caribbean Princess - pool and/or beach towels?

[Gil&Carolyn]

Hi, first-timers getting really excited as our July 15th trip is approaching. Appreciate all of the great info I've read. It's helped tons! One question: are there towels available at the various pools? How about at Princess Cays? Or do you take your stateroom towels? Should we plan to use some of the limited space in our bags for beach towels from home or buy them on the ship or at a port-of-call?

I know, 3 weeks away and we're obsessing about towels...pretty silly, !

There will be beach towels in your cabin for you. You can exchange them at the pools if you wish or your cabin steward will do this for you.

Remember to bring them back to the ship if you go to the beach in a port. Kids will offer to "take them to the ship for free". That is the last time they are seen.

Thanks, I'll remember that...little scammers everywhere. Like the kids in New Orleans who used to say to me "Hey mistah, I bet I can tell you where you got them shoes!" In light of the horrors that city's seen, I wish now I'd given them a couple of bucks to tell me "You got them shoes right there, on your feet!"

Thank you, Nancy. I can cross that one off the "Gee, I wonder...." list!
