lmkucala Posted June 19, 2016 #1 Share Posted June 19, 2016 We are scheduled to leave next Saturday 6/25 from Vancouver. Any recent reports from last two weeks? I know folks were having issues in late May/early June with water just wondering how it is now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
denatravels Posted June 19, 2016 #2 Share Posted June 19, 2016 I'd like to know, too! Leaving July 9 in my newly upgraded balcony cabin (yippee!!) Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaska05 Posted June 19, 2016 #3 Share Posted June 19, 2016 We just got off on June 18. We were on Baja deck aft and had plenty of hot water. Had wonderful weather the whole cruise. We were across from the laundry room. One set of washer/dryer were out of service the whole cruise. Laundry room was very popular the last 2 days with people waiting. Guess lots of folks were doing land tours after cruise so wanted to get laundry done. I'm at the McKinley Princess Lodge now and they have self service laundry also and its $1 less than on the ship.

cafelovercanada Posted June 24, 2016 #5 Share Posted June 24, 2016 We were on the Coral June 11 to 18 and had NO issues with hot water or water pressure. Laundry was busy when our kids wanted to use it but nothing a little wait didn't solve. Saw a couple of buckets in the hallway along the Baja forward deck but other than that we didn't see any evidence of water/plumbing problems.

I would imagine on a cruise like this, nobody wants to do laundry in ports or on glacier bay day-- not surprising to hear of waits. This will be my first cruise with self-serve laundry, so I think it's a nice option since I will be away for 6 weeks. Much easier than in the sink!!

azcruiser64 Posted June 25, 2016 #7 Share Posted June 25, 2016 We were on the Southbound Alaska cruise on the Coral from June 4 to the 11th and had no problems or heard of any water problems. I did notice a slight sewage smell on the forward part of deck 7 a couple of times but don't know what caused it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colo Cruiser Posted June 25, 2016 #8 Share Posted June 25, 2016 There are these water type issues on every cruise. We have had them on a number of ships including the Coral last November. There is no way to tell ahead of time in any cabin that you will not have problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmcmo Posted June 28, 2016 #9 Share Posted June 28, 2016 We were on the June 11-18 sailing northbound and the first day had an issue with hot water in our shower. We reported it to the Customer Service Desk and it was resolved in a couple of hours. We were on Caribe forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffbrig Posted June 28, 2016 #10 Share Posted June 28, 2016 Just got off the Crown, and the temperature dial in the shower only had a very loose correlation with the actual water temperature. It would frequently go from cool to almost full hot completely at random, regardless of dial position. I eventually discovered that if it was running cool, I could compensate somewhat by reducing the flow. When it tended to run hot, running full flow seemed to help. This was in a fwd mini on dolphin deck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bugze380 Posted June 28, 2016 #11 Share Posted June 28, 2016 I was on the Coral Northbound 6/11 - 6/18 and didn't have any water issues at all. In fact, I thought the pressure in the shower was fantastic. Review here: http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=2369857 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
