amedawn Posted August 30, 2010 #1 Share Posted August 30, 2010 Just received and upgrade call for our cruise that leaves this Sat the 4th. We're already in an extended balcony suite and they are offering us the Owner's suite at "a discounted" price. It's 3 times are big as our current cabin and all the amenities sound amazing...but I just don't know if it's worth the extra money. Has anyone ever stayed in this suite? Any opinions either way would be great! Thanks!!! Oh and this is my first cruise! So excited!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitty9 Posted August 30, 2010 #2 Share Posted August 30, 2010 We can't tell you if it's a good deal or not until you tell us what ship you're on. Suites on different ships vary greatly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really don't think you need more than an inside broom cupboard for a first cruise, and the upgrade you're talking about is probably more than I pay for an entire cruise.:D And from an owner's suite, the only way is down :p But who knows whether the opportunity will ever arise again? Come up with the sums, & folk can give you their views and any other advantages or indeed pitfalls. But not me. It's all way above my station ;) Have a great time mi'lady, whichever you choose :) John Bull Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amedawn Posted August 30, 2010 Author #4 Share Posted August 30, 2010 Sorry! Forgot to say it's on Ecstasy. They're asking an additional $1700 for the upgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted August 30, 2010 #5 Share Posted August 30, 2010 On Carnival, I'd say no...aside from the space, you really don't get any 'suite" perks like you do on other lines. Save that $1700 and have LOTS of drinks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grandmato4 Posted August 30, 2010 #7 Share Posted August 30, 2010 Sorry! Forgot to say it's on Ecstasy. They're asking an additional $1700 for the upgrade. No, we wouldn't pay an additional $1700 than we originally planned to spend to stay in the Owners Suite. Hope you enjoy your first cruise !:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
operafan Posted August 30, 2010 #8 Share Posted August 30, 2010 For $1700 you can take a second cruise. Add me to the chorus of not worth it....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yayvacation! Posted August 31, 2010 #10 Share Posted August 31, 2010 If it has a butler or other great perks I would do it! But I only cruise on Celebrity always in suites and they have really amazing perks, what does Carnival offer that is an upgrade in the Owners suite?

kitty9 Posted August 31, 2010 #11 Share Posted August 31, 2010 On Carnival, on an older ship? No way in heck would I pay that much for an upsell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amedawn Posted August 31, 2010 Author #12 Share Posted August 31, 2010 It's 1000sf with 3 separate rooms...huge bathroom, marble floors etc. Thanks for the feedback guys! I think it would be a once in a blue moon chance, but not worth it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
