Towels

[gelson]

Trying to plan our packing list and need some advice. Should we bring beach towels with us or take them off the ship. There will be 5 of us so we would probably need at least 3 towels (the kids can share). I would even buy some cheap ones down there so I would only have to pack them one way.

 

Thanks

You can check them out on the ship. Just be carefull with them because you will be charged if you lose them. The RCL beach towels are fine.

You do not have to waste precious luggage space taking towels. They have beach/pool towels for you to sign out. You must return them by the last night of the cruise or they charge you $20 each. We returned all of ours but were mistakenly charged $20 for one. We went to guest relations and they took the charge off without ANY problem.

We had absolutely no problem getting 2 towels per sea pass. We'd get them on the way to the pool and then return them when we were done. The day before a beach excursion we went to the towel station and took our 4 towels. Back on the ship we returned the towels. Always got new towels every time we went to the pool, deck chairs or excursion. Always had clean fresh towels, never had dirty wet ones in cabin. Don't bother with your own!

Dont waste the space in your luggage....we have always used the ships towels and have never had a problem getting more than one at a time. enjoy your cruise!!! :)

You may have as many towels as you need....and really, don't worry about "losing" them...how often do you "lose" towels, whether they're your's or the ship's?????
