Alaskanb Posted September 20, 2019 #1 Share Posted September 20, 2019 How does the thermal suite work? Do I make an appointment time or just drop in? Any tips / hints to make it a relaxing experience? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Tak8 Posted September 20, 2019 #2 Share Posted September 20, 2019 You don't have to make an appointment. It will be open the same hours that the spa is open. As with anything on the ship, sometimes will be busier than others. I would recommend going to the spa day 1 and purchase a pass for the week. I don't know if it's true, but they claim they sell only so many passes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Qcruise Posted September 20, 2019 #4 Share Posted September 20, 2019 The thermal suite is nice, but it is a cave down there. We've done it in the past but be aware there are few heated tile loungers and might not get one when you go. There are two steam rooms co-ed one with eucaliptus and one regular.....and some open showers to rinse off. We would wear swim attire and a robe. If you do the tour on embarkation day they'll tell you the cost for the entire cruise.......it's usually too expensive for us to justify. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papa Yoda Posted September 20, 2019 #5 Share Posted September 20, 2019 What ship? Usually when you buy something through the personalizer there will be a card in your cabin. Take the card down to Lotus Spa and get checked in and get your sticker - if necessary. When you want to spa, check in at the spa desk - they'll take your medallion or cruise card and give you a robe and slippers. I like to change into swim suit in the changing room, and leave most stuff and clothes in a free locker. There are not-coed "real" steam and sauna in the changing rooms. Try to go during the crowd's meal times and on port days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go-Bucks! Posted September 22, 2019 #7 Share Posted September 22, 2019 Does the Island have the free steam & saunas in the women's (and men's) locker room? I like the Thermal Suite, but often the beds are just lukewarm so if the Island has the free steam & saunas, I won't bother joining the Thermal Suite.

Great ship! - the thermal suite is on Sun deck forward of Lotus Spa pool so it is lit by a glass door to the pool. 5 tile heated loungers, Aromatherapy steam room, Gentle Sauna and Gentle Steam, plus 2 "rain showers". Our first and favorte Thermal Suite! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Free Sauna (Men's and Women's) - they are hidden., not in changing rooms but there are lockers and showers in the sauna rooms. No free steam.
