bajathree Posted November 26, 2009 Author #29 Share Posted November 26, 2009 I'm interested in the WowPhone also. Any info on how to secure one would be greatly appreciated. It would be nice if we could reserve one through the concierge. I did ask this question and if I can reserve one as after thinking about it, figured i should just get one to check it out anyway....however i was told they are still in the testing stage and don't know if they will have them available for Dec 1st.

critterchick Posted December 2, 2009 #35 Share Posted December 2, 2009 That was an earlier mistake of words....the GS's have a jetted tub in the bathroom, NOT on the balcony. I wouldn't expect any contact till a week or two ahead. Just bought a new camera today....plan to take lots of pix;) GS cabins do not have a jetted tub in the bathroom - OS do. You can see that in the picture (and I saw it in person). They are gorgeous cabins, though.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drarill Posted December 10, 2009 #36 Share Posted December 10, 2009 Pirate Steve: Welcome back!!! Please, let us know about the suite perks on the Oasis. Read on another thread that there is no priority seating for suite guests on the shows. What did you think about the CL and the two concierges. Hope you had a great time.

ctcruiser1721 Posted December 13, 2009 #38 Share Posted December 13, 2009 I am just off the ship from the inaugural sailing and have to say I am very dissapointed in a few things and suite perks are on the top of my list. There was no reserved seating at any of the shows. There were no chocolates on the pillows the first night (I actually had to request them.) There is no luggage valet on the Oasis. The Windjammer staff was not even aware there was suite guest seating at Izumi (right next to the Windjammer). These may seem like small things but they become important when investing the $$ necessary to enjoy an aquatheater suite on an inaugural sailing.

Did you receive an email from the concierges before your cruise? If you did, do you have their email? Thanks for the update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drarill Posted December 14, 2009 #41 Share Posted December 14, 2009 I did not receive any emails prior to the cruise. Sorry. Thanks for your response. I'm also dissapointed about all the things that I'm reading. As you said suite guests are paing a lot of $$$. At least, suite guests should receive the same perks that are offered on other RCCL ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catwoman1 Posted December 16, 2009 #42 Share Posted December 16, 2009 Did you get any pic's of the aquatheatre masterbathroom? I'm hoping its as nice as the grand suite's bathroom which is what we usually book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm hoping its as nice as the grand suite's bathroom which is what we usually book. I did not get any pics. From what I have seen I'm not sure it's as flashy but it was very adequate. Unless you are a tall man in which case you will surely suffer a head injury. If you are over 5'10" I would suggest using the shower in the other bathroom.

walkertalk Posted August 20, 2012 #44 Share Posted August 20, 2012 Last RCL suite I stayed in the concierge called me prior to sailing to check in and see if I wanted to make any reservations in the spa during my cruise! I was very impressed.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smoosh21 Posted August 20, 2012 #45 Share Posted August 20, 2012 To put it bluntly, RCI suite perks "suck" compared to some of the other cruise lines. For RCI having such beautiful and roomy suites, they need to up the ante on the perks considering what they charge. NCL is another mass market line and they blow RCI out of the water. So does HAL. Most of the stuff that RCI includes does not cost them anything additional to provide. It has been a long time since I sailed HAL, but both times we sailed in Suites. The only perks I remember were access to the Neptune Lounge, Boutennier for Formal nightand the Officers Cocktail Party. All in All it seems to be very similar to what Royal Offers.

Former Goalie Posted August 20, 2012 #46 Share Posted August 20, 2012 It has been a long time since I sailed HAL, but both times we sailed in Suites.

The NL and the wonderful concierges who staff it are a BIG plus in HAL's suite offerings. Granted, there is no booze offered in the NL except during the Officers' party, but HAL lets you bring as much wine on board as you wish - no booze police at embarkation for wine. One perk that should be mentioned on HAL is complimentary cleaning and dry cleaning of clothes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
