kanadakid Posted October 2, 2022 #1451 Share Posted October 2, 2022 Curious to know if Princess' "Caribbean Princess" has free unisex steam and sauna. Says the Fitness Ctr is free but can't seem to find this out by reviewing ship Info. I know it said there is a quieter vibe aboard with a slightly older crowd so wouldn't mind that, but lack of access to relax in the steam would be a deal breaker for me.

oneupchuck Posted October 2, 2022 #1452 Share Posted October 2, 2022 Just hopped on the Carnival Miracle and wanted to report that they have a free single sex steam room and sauna in the spa/fitness center area. The Carnival Miracle is a spirit class ship, and includes the Carnival Spirit, Legend, and Pride. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps STLCRUSIN can confirm if the Summit has a similar layout. Someone else had posted the positioning of the glass-walled sauna across from the showers didn't provide the ideal setup, but at least there still is one. I just returned on 9/1/22 from a trip on Celebrity Summit and can confirm that the pictures that twodjs posted on 9/15/22 are exactly what what exists on the ship down to the fixtures and color of the tile. I don't remember the top bench being back-lit which was nice for privacy. The sauna is small, maybe 5-6 max, but it wasn't very busy so that worked out OK. I didn't discover this free, men-only sauna in the fitness center locker room until the third day of my trip. I visited everyday after that. You can enter the locker room from the pool deck or from the hallway to the spa/fitness center. Even though the front wall is glass, the small room was always hot. Some times hotter than others. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare natefish95 Posted October 4, 2022 #1456 Share Posted October 4, 2022 Great pictures of the Carnival Miracle. I'm leaving on the Spirit on Saturday. I'm sure it's the exact same setup, but I'll report back. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was on Caribbean princess earlier this summer and yes free unisex sauna and steam. Pretty busy the entire cruise when I would go at varying times. Let me know if you have any other questions.

willcan Posted October 4, 2022 #1458 Share Posted October 4, 2022 Does anyone know of any ship with a hot tub, located in the men's only areas, where clothing is optional? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The NCL jewel class of ship, like the Pearl, did have a decent sized hot tub which I have enjoyed with others in the past in the extra charge men's only area that is totally clothing optional. But I remember recent posts where the hot tub may have been replaced with a one person? hot tub or removed completely. Hope others with recent experience will comment.

The Jewel and the Jade both have a hot tub where the other two ships in that class (Gem and Pearl) have a single person tub. I'm fairly confident the Jewel and Jade both have the large multi-person hot tub. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very disappointing. Does someone update the spreadsheet with this info? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matty_Boy Posted October 11, 2022 #1468 Share Posted October 11, 2022 Just wondering what the rules are on clothing inside the sauna and steam rooms here?

Explorer still has a lovely setup, with a large men's locker room, six showers, and a large steam room and sauna. Large towels are provided, and while a few guys will wear shorts or a bathing suit, most put on a towel that is loosened or for some removed entirely once inside the sauna or steam room. The more guys who go nude inside the sauna or steam room, the more guys there are who will go nude. If everyone stays wrapped up, then often no one will unwrap. But the staff do not generally check, and there's usually no issue with going nude. On rare occasions when there has been unwelcome attention or behavior, I have heard of scoldings or staff intervention after complaints were made, but that is not the norm. Hopefully you will have an enjoyable trip and make good use of the facilities. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like to sit nude on a towel, unless the whole room is dominated by clothed, loud, unshowered people in gym clothes..in which case i loosely cover w towel. 🤞 It seems the days of people having spa etiquette are evaporating.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
