Elite Bathroom Amenities

[denmarks]

What are the current bathroom amenities for elites?

[Scorpio41]

 

Lip salve, body  buffer, cotton balls and cotton buds, linen spray, shower cap all in an organza bag.

As posted by Scorpio and items do vary.

I've received at various times all of the above plus/minus nail file, gel eye mask, etc.

In my humble opinion, these "Ameneties" are a joke!  We always give them back to the Room Steward...

Based on their environmental changes coming as far as plastic is concerned some of these are probably going away.

We always bring all our own toiletries so never use any of the ships bathroom amenities.

I would rather have more in our Elite mini bar set up.

I agree.  I would like a better choice of the small bottles.  What I wanted on Coral Princess, Canadian Club or Crown Royal, they did not have.

Linen spray: dump out, use for Vermouth Sprayer for your Martini.

Lip Balm: use on palm calluses received while rowing the boat. 

Bag: Use to strain olives out of jar.

Does anyone remember if they provide hand and body lotion?  I know the shampoo is in a pump in the shower and makes my hair gloppy so I bring my own.  But i would rather not have to bring a large bottle of lotion.

[CruisinFinsUp]

All cabins get the Lotus Spa lotion.

Grapau27,

That’s never going to happen 😳.  Rkacruiser,  You would like Canadian Club or Crown Royal 😳 You have a better chance of Winning the Lottery.

A couple of years ago a asked for Amaretto di  Saronno Do I have to tell you the answer? Fugheddaboudit 😳😁.

 Neverbeenhere, you have the best answer to this question. 

I can’t stop laughing!! I love it. 😂

Why do you say this?  Small bottles of both whiskeys are available.  Other than the vodka that was in the mini-bar set-up, only the vodka was one I liked.  But, in the refrigerator, there was no Bloody Mary mix.

can you choose  to exchange mini bar for soda plus more instead?

No. It is only 2 coffee packages or a one for one exchange of liquor for liquor or for liquor/soda for soda. I believe you can also exchange for a bottle or two of wine. I do not have details about that.

[sailingskyward]

It’s the same brand of what you receive in any other cabin, Lotus Spa (product of China), and the same rubbish quality. I’ve emailed Princess about the quality of their onboard toiletries and all they replied was that they seek to balance quality and price. I think I know which they lean towards.

It's a trade of all the items for just one bottle of wine. I did it on my second cruise of back-to-back cruises this summer since I had plenty left over from my first mini bar.

Just returned from Crown Princess and extra amenities as Elite were a bit of a joke 1 x shower cap, 1x lip balm, 1 x shampoo, 1 x body lotion and 2 packs containing 3 x balls of cotton wool and cotton buds in each and they were just placed in bathroom in no bag/container.

When combined with all of the other things that Elites receive, especially compared to other cruise lines, I think they are quite generous...to each their own.

Another example of downgrading the experience.  --Miss the slippers that were gratis for all.

The only things I'd miss would be the lip balm and conditioner. I hope they have those next month when we are on the Crown. If last year's transatlantic is an indication, I'm expecting several hundred Elite passengers on board.

Our last trip on the Crown which was a few months ago, we also found the elite toiletries just laying on the bathroom counter. There was no bag.
