aimee0715 Posted November 4, 2018 #1 Share Posted November 4, 2018 My husband and I are packing for our first cruise on Azamara. We're doing the 10 day Cuba intensive itinerary on Journey. We have an interior cabin. Can someone who has recently cruised on Journey tell me what toiletries are provided in the cabin? We are not picky enough about our products to take our own stuff when they are otherwise provided. I mainly want to know if conditioner (separate conditioner and shampoo as opposed to the dreaded "conditioning shampoo") is provided and whether there will be bar soap or shower gel. Thanks!

excitedofharpenden Posted November 4, 2018 #2 Share Posted November 4, 2018 Shampoo, conditioner, two bars of soap (one for shower and one for basin) and body lotion. No shower gel. Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ellbon Posted November 4, 2018 #6 Share Posted November 4, 2018 They always have shower gel. I prefer my own but have used theirs . Bring your own hair products. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lookyboy Posted November 5, 2018 #7 Share Posted November 5, 2018 Yes - always been 'body wash'...... not as good as original 'Elemis' and then 'About Rose'.... but it's there and fine to use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manc Posted November 7, 2018 #8 Share Posted November 7, 2018 Plenty of shower gel, shampoo, soap, body lotion and conditioner and replaced every day on Quest last month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrbluesea Posted November 14, 2018 #9 Share Posted November 14, 2018 Now on pursuit. If you have a room with a bath then bring your own bubble bath as the shower gel does not do the trick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redtravel Posted November 30, 2018 #11 Share Posted November 30, 2018 You can never assume that any cruise or hotel will provide toiletries that you like. Just because you had something that you liked on a previous cruise, it may be different on the next cruise. I loved Elemis. I didn't like About Rose. It was too strongly scented. I know that Azamara has switched again to something different. I am hoping that I like it. Just to be safe, I always bring my own toiletries. My favorites from cruise ships are L'Occitane on Windstar and Bvlgari on Oceania. On Oceania a few weeks ago, there was a new product...combo shower gel and shampoo previously there was a shower gel separate from a shampoo. The combo product worked well. I have also had some allergic reactions to some products. Gilchrist & Soames on Celebrity gives me hives. Nothing ever stays the same. You are safe if you bring your own toiletries.

marinaro44 Posted November 30, 2018 #12 Share Posted November 30, 2018 We had L'Occitane on Windstar. Stunk to high heaven. Ship sent someone out in Greenland to buy something that didn't smell so awful. The fussy, fidgety little fliptops are pretentious and ridiculous.

excitedofharpenden Posted December 1, 2018 #13 Share Posted December 1, 2018 The Bvulgari they have on Celebrity is my favourite. I also really like the Elemis Revitalise Me that they have in the changing room showers on Azamara. Otherwise I can’t say I’m that fussed what I get really.

Baynanno1 Posted December 1, 2018 #14 Share Posted December 1, 2018 I quite like the flip tops, as they don't fall on the floor of the small shower space like the screw tops often do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No problem with flip-tops in general, but the silly L'Occitane flip-top is so small it's difficult to manage with wet, slippery fingers in the shower. And, of course, the stuff has an overpowering smell. Personally, I prefer the top where you push one side down and the other side pops up to dispense Easily done with one hand.

That's funny as we had L'Occitane, I think on Regent, and hubby loved it so much he buys the soaps for home now. But we are on the Quest now and he can't stand the smell of their products. I thought it was overkill that our butler sourced a couple sets of unscented toiletries for him when we got to our first port, but I guess others have had the same done.

audobon_tx Posted December 10, 2018 #19 Share Posted December 10, 2018 Love Cusson's Imperial Leather bar soap. I make a run to Boots every time I visit the UK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
