Jimosprey Posted December 18, 2012 #1 Share Posted December 18, 2012 If, in the middle of the night, a person can't sleep, is it "kosher" to go to the Executive Lounge in your robe? Or is that in poor taste, and one should throw some real clothes on. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
durante Posted December 18, 2012 #2 Share Posted December 18, 2012 I have seen a few people wearing robes in both Executive and Concierge Lounge, once it was in the afternoon! If it is the middle of the night I would think that was understandable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or is that in poor taste, and one should throw some real clothes on. Thanks. :eek: What kind of a question is that? As you'd have to walk the public hallways, and perhaps staircases and elevators to get to the Lounge, I would think that you would need tyo be fully dressed. Frankly, those robes don't cover all passengers equally....:rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pacheco18 Posted December 18, 2012 #4 Share Posted December 18, 2012 We had a few cruisers in robes and pajamas in the Exec Lounge on our crossing. ONe was sprawled out on the sofa. NO. It is not OK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TERRIER1 Posted December 19, 2012 #6 Share Posted December 19, 2012 If it is the middle of the night who else is going to be out there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pacheco18 Posted December 19, 2012 #7 Share Posted December 19, 2012 If it is the middle of the night who else is going to be out there? Another insomniac Someone wanting a latte Someone wanting to read without disturbing their cabinmate You'd be surprised Just wear clothes. It's a public space.

MeMomandaMap Posted December 24, 2012 #9 Share Posted December 24, 2012 Good answer. +1 Oh my gosh, I'm actually shocked Oceania clientele would ask this question. Public Space means you are dressed. ALWAYS. T shirt, shorts/sweatpants and flip flops/slippers at the minimum never a robe.. this also includes people who go sit in the sauna and strip out of their bathings suits and then walk around in their bathrobe to their cabin. I saw that several times on Azamara...YUCK! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pacheco18 Posted December 24, 2012 #10 Share Posted December 24, 2012 Oceania clientele may have a bit more disposable income than those on some less upscale cruise lines but money does not buy class. On one O cruise we were sitting in the Library and a fellow cruiser actually took off his pants and changed into another pair of pants. On another, we saw a cruiser wearing basketball shorts and a tank top throughout the entire cruise (no, his luggage was not lost). That was his version of resort casual. Then there are the screamers -- the folks who think the only way to communicate with their friends is to scream across the pool area or the buffet. And, of course, the chair hogs It is a microcosm of society as a whole. O gets all kinds. Luckily, those folks do not comprise a majority of O cruisers.

eddmel Posted December 24, 2012 #11 Share Posted December 24, 2012 We have been on a number of Oceania cruises and every day people go to the pool in those robes and slippers. Many people clearly think that's why Oceania puts them in our rooms. We have seen people at afternoon tea in the robes and slippers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orchestrapal Posted December 24, 2012 #12 Share Posted December 24, 2012 10 + cruises on O and have never seen robes on any ship except where they belong by the pool or spa or in our suite. Get dressed if you must go to the lounge in the middle of the night someone else may be there too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MeMomandaMap Posted December 24, 2012 #15 Share Posted December 24, 2012 By the pool, if I'm actually laying out and utilizing it. I wear one of the following outfits. 1. a sarong with a matching conservative tank top/tshirt 2. a sundress 3. shorts and tshirt and always sandals/flip flops on my feet I remove them while I'm next to the lounge chair I only wear my bathrobe inside the privacy of my cabin.

orchestrapal Posted December 24, 2012 #16 Share Posted December 24, 2012 :D Do they belong by the pool? Not in my opinion, but you often see them there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hondorner Posted December 24, 2012 #17 Share Posted December 24, 2012 Yes. What else would you wear to the pool? Cover-ups for ladies, and at least a shirt for gentlemen. My bathing trunks are styled as shorts, even to the pockets, so a simple shirt looks fine with them. Men wearing speedos should probably pull a pair of shorts over them. Robes are in the staterooms, which, in my opinion, is where they should stay. Similarly, the robes provided in the spa are to be worn within the spa. Most people know that I'm not one of the dress codes police, but the above is a simple matter of courtesy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare ORV Posted December 24, 2012 #19 Share Posted December 24, 2012 Men wearing speedos should probably pull a pair of shorts over them. My first thought was that men wearing Speedos probably shouldn't. Talk about something that should only be worn in the stateroom:eek: They might as well be walking around in their briefs.

Mary Ellen Posted December 24, 2012 #21 Share Posted December 24, 2012 Many people clearly think that's why Oceania puts them in our rooms. Oceania also puts towels in the cabins. Do passengers think they are there to be worn in public? :eek::eek::eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hondorner Posted December 24, 2012 #25 Share Posted December 24, 2012 Many people bring the towels from their room to the pool Unless they manage to get the towels back to their room, they will likely be shocked when they are charged for them. Pool towels are available in great abundance at the pool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
