Rare OzKiwiJJ Posted April 2, 2017 #26 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Actually we did get a very simple stingray towel animal on a Sun cruise we did last year. We'd both come down with a nasty flu that was doing the rounds on that cruise and one night our steward decided to cheer us up with the stingray. He used the chocolates as eyes. Very sweet of him, I thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riclop Posted April 2, 2017 #27 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Has anybody been less than satisfied with the quality of the product in this area. Last cruise I felt a bit let down with the steward's "straight snake". I even left my sunglasses out near a coat hanger but was unsuccessful in attracting a gorilla. Finally I confronted him on the issue and on the last day he had done a "manta ray" which I congratulated him on. Turned out my daughter had thrown a towel on the bed. Regards John You are worried about towel animals, PLEASE!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notentirelynormal Posted April 2, 2017 #28 Share Posted April 2, 2017 For those of you who have still not figured it out - it was an APRIL FOOLS DAY JOKE! The OP is a long time cruiser and is quite aware that Princess doesn't do towel animals and he couldn't care less if they did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubba54 Posted April 2, 2017 #29 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Very rarely have we got towel animals on Princess. Usually on Holland and NCL. We tell our room stewards to not bother. I do like the monkeys though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky TGO Posted April 2, 2017 #30 Share Posted April 2, 2017 I had a towel animal on my bed one night and it was snoring all night long. But she was really good looking. :D :D :D Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SewMuch Posted April 2, 2017 #31 Share Posted April 2, 2017 We always pack our own towel animals. Sure it means bringing along a few extra suitcases full of towels, but I can't sleep unless there's a hanging monkey watching over me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nanabananna Posted April 2, 2017 #33 Share Posted April 2, 2017 I think you can buy them in the gift shop, but you have to have your name added to the list. Just make sure the list does not go into File 13 though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

booknbag Posted April 2, 2017 #37 Share Posted April 2, 2017 I agree with those who commented that towel animals are the exception on any Princess cruise. Carnival is known for their critters and there is a book that can be purchased showing how to make the various animals, some require more three or four towels. The towels are easy to fold, and my monkey and dog have never failed to catch the amusement of the Cabin Stewart and their friends. They do not mind providing the extra towels, however most are not trained in this area. Happy Sailing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
just hooked Posted April 2, 2017 #38 Share Posted April 2, 2017 I have had more towel animals on princess than other lines , normally give our stewards a gift at the start of the cruise that may help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aussieflyer Posted April 2, 2017 #39 Share Posted April 2, 2017 It was a great April Fools joke john watson - it sure got people commenting and some people are still commenting, even after your post admitting it wasn't for real. Good one. I doffs me hat to you :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrs and mrs Posted April 2, 2017 #40 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Yes but it needed a joke to expose the patheticness of some posts, and really it dosent need a joke post to incite these sort of posters. Really Towel animals. LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thrak Posted April 3, 2017 #43 Share Posted April 3, 2017 I'm sorry - you meant your comfort towel animal, didn't you? Perhaps it wipes up after messes. That would definitely be a service towel animal rather than a comfort towel animal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pashka Posted April 3, 2017 #44 Share Posted April 3, 2017 Haha, glad to see it an april fools thread! I do feel bad for the employees who do take their time out to do this (even at resorts). I couldn't care less for them as long as I have fresh towels, I am good. I went on MSC and the cleaner folded all my messy clothes on the couch - felt bad that I folded everything before the room got cleaned. Ugh :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruisin' Chick Posted April 3, 2017 #45 Share Posted April 3, 2017 I once was on a cruise where the towel animals came alive during the night. I definitely tipped extra! Sent from my iPhone using Forums I wasn't on CC yesterday so I didn't see this thread. So job well done. Like that Russian embassy employee who programmed their phones especially for the day and the current issue with spying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
