Pearl Rock Climbing and Bowling Question

[eggybear54]

We are just booking a 7-day Western out of Miami on the Pearl. We have been on the Jewel, and know the rock climbing wall and bowling alley are enhancements.

 

Is there a cost to use these venues? I am sure they are in high demand. Is there a reservation process with either, or is it just first come first serve?

Rock Climbing is free - all you have to do is sign your life away :)

 

Bowling was $5 per person, including shoes. We never had to wait for bowling but for the rock climbing there were usually 6-7 people in front of us, but the line moved well and it was good to cheer on the people in front of you.

 

Oh yeah - it's first come first served.

 

Hope you have a great time!!

We had to wait for bowling a couple times on at sea days. One time it was an hour wait and they kept a list. We just hung out in the lounge not a big deal. Two of the four lanes were not working so maybe that was the reason for the wait. We loved the Pearl!

Thanks for the feedback! We picked the Jewel for our first NCL cruise b/c the itinerary and sail dates worked for us. However, we knew the Pearl had those "extras" that DS12 would like.

 

The bowling cost was waaaay lower than I expected. :D It sounds like there is a bar/lounge close by where we can wait. Do you get a pager or something?

The bowling lanes are actually within the lounge area. There is lots of seating and a bar with TVs above (showing sporting events each time we were there).

 

FYI about the rock climbing -- you will have to sign a new waiver each time your son wants to climb. They don't keep the first one on file.

Super! Thanks for the feedback. We can't wait.:o
