I placed bids on the Haven weeks ago.... I placed the bid for the Suite on Dec 3rd ad got the upgrade email on the 5th.

Just an FYI, I had a Club Balcony room on the Joy for Dec 18th cruise to Mexico and bid on nearly everything Haven... all in the mid tear of bids... Then last minute when I saw that they were discounting the Penthouse Suite with Balcony (SC) rooms. I knew they were not Haven, nor had many perks other then a larger room so I threw a low ball bid on there of the minimum, and 2 days later I got the bid. When I looked there where very few Haven rooms left so that motivated me to bid on the non haven upgrade, and it worked.. or back fired.. I'll never know... but We did get an upgrade, and we will enjoy or short jaunt down to Cabo and back 🙂

Zoey! Thank you so much for this review, it is exactly what I was looking for. I think we are going into this with expectations in check of a bigger space and that is about it. We do love the Haven, and the restaurant is top notch and that is what we will miss the most. But we are on a short 5 day trip with 3 specialty dining nights to it will be not as big a deal. I appreciate you taking the time to reply!!! -Lane

I am in a SC room, thank you for this!

So, I was upgraded to a Penthouse Suite on the Joy for our upcoming Mexican Riviera trip in 2 weeks. I have hear conflicting reports about any perks the Suites get and would love to know if anyone has had any recent experience with staying in a suite on the JOY. Thanks! -Lane

Favorite drink...... Hendricks Gin, Fever Tree Tonic, Wedge of lime and a single Star Anise over ice....
