Mom.to.2 Posted April 6, 2012 #1276 Share Posted April 6, 2012 I had read on another thread that there are flavored waters to drink in the Windjammer. Is this true on the Explorer or is it just on the Oasis class? Also, are they sweet or diet and are they just still or sparkling? Thanks. They are available on the Explorer. The flavored waters are diet and not fizzy. Sent from my DROIDX using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll love the Explorer, so much to do and a great crew. As far as spa packages go, they don't have mother/daughter packages but they do have specials when the ship is in port. I wou D avoid the spa on the days when there is a formal night as the spas get very busy. I'm sure you'll have loads of ?'s and there's always someone here to answer.

We were in an inside and we didn't have a flat screen but it didn't matter because we aren't in our cabin very much. As far as the food, we found ourselves eating a little more often in the WJ for our dinner because we didn't like what was on the MDR menu on certain nights. In the WJ they have a stir fry section where you select what you want, they cook it right in front of you and it was delish! We were on an 11 nighter so we just split it up and did 4 nights MDR, 1 night Portofinos, 6 nights WJ. One thing I usually look forward to was the chilled soups in the MDR, well they also have it in the WJ. Everyone we talked to raved about Portofinos, but after eating there, I prefer Chops, by far, when we sailed on the Enchantment. There are so many options of food, you will definitely find things you like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
celebrity Posted April 9, 2012 #1285 Share Posted April 9, 2012 I will be on the 9 nighter in July and was wondering if there are any theme parties at night?? Every time I've sailed her, there's been a Caribbean Night with dancing on the pool deck and a buffet about 11pm. They also do a 70's theme in the Promenade just prior to Quest. I'll be back in June so I can let you know what happens. Oops! One more thing..they do a 60's night with Elvis impersonators. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scrossma Posted April 12, 2012 #1288 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Does anyone have a link or copies of the Cruise Compass's for a 7 day Bermuda cruise on the Explorer. I have seen a couple of links for the 9 day cruises to the Caribbean but no Bermuda links. Cruising to Bermuda on October 14th. Hi We will be cruising on the Oct 14th Bermuda sail also. Hoping it is a great cruise we have never sailed on EOS before. Good tips on this thread & also on the roll call one for Oct 14th :):):) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BKNYChick Posted April 12, 2012 #1290 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Did I hear correctly that they no longer serve lobster on RCCL? No. Just came home today from 5 day Bermuda trip and there was definitely lobster tails and lobster bisque available on the menu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ENYCMom Posted April 12, 2012 #1291 Share Posted April 12, 2012 I just got back today and there was a strong smell on the 6th floor (near our cabin) for much of the day/evening the day we left Bermuda. They told us they burst a sewage line and then they told my husband they hadn't and he was lying about the problem. Guest relations on this ship are terrible. They routinely gave us incorrect information (like come tomorrow morning to book a babysitter when they were already all booked). The MDR was great and we loved eating there. Portofino's was good but not outstanding. The kids club isn't great on this ship - the staff are good but the facilities are underwhelming. The pools were nice and the excursions were great. The bars and performers were all first rate. Thanks to whoever recommended the Lemon Drop drink - I loved it! Overall we had a good trip and would sail Royal Caribbean again but not this ship unless I could afford a deluxe cabin far from the smell! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mayfieldlodge Posted April 13, 2012 #1296 Share Posted April 13, 2012 we returned 1 week ago from bahamas cruise and the ship was fabulous we had a balcony cabin on deck 10 and had no problems with any smells where ever we went on the ship, the food was excellent and the staff were very friendly we did complain about our cruise transfer from the airport and was given $70 on board credit. Look out for Nester at the windjammer wasi wasi - make sure you sanitise your hands before going in, he was great entertainment and the kids loved him. Kids club entertained my son for the whole cruise and the entertainment was also fairly good, dont miss the ice show that is a must. I would reccomend this ship above the brilliance and adventurer but maybe thats just personal choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
family cruisers Posted April 13, 2012 #1297 Share Posted April 13, 2012 We're sailing on EOS in September to Bermuda, while we cruise each year to Bermuda this will be the first (DH) on EOS. I always bring a case of water on carnival or ncl and it is allowed. I check it with my luggage. Can the same be done on EOS ? I know I sound boring but that's pretty much all I drink. No soda, no iced teac etc.. Can we bring non alcoholic beer onboard ? Holland America is great with that. We got a GREAT rate for this sailing and we'll be in an inside (so used to balconies) but hey ! I was impressed that RCCL price was lower than NCL to Bermuda. Competition . Works for us . I'm also thrilled RCCL decided to do the 7 night runs to BDA. I always wanted my DH to see the differrence on a BIG ship and now he will. I sailed EOS out of Miami about 8 years back and am looking forward to coming back and seeing whats changed. I honestly can't remember much from when I sailed her last. This is a great thread , glad I found it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharonlacey Posted April 13, 2012 #1298 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Just got of EOS and friends of ours brought a case of water, they wrapped it in bubble wrap and put a luggage tag on it and it was deliverd to the cabin, with no problem:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CruzinSoulMates Posted April 13, 2012 #1300 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Hi. Just got an email from RCI which advertised the Explorer as "Newly Revitalized" with upgraded staterooms with flat screen tv's and more. They also stated an outdoor poolside LED movie screen.:eek: Anyone seen these upgrades? I know we had a flat screen tv in our room last year.
