Sanctuary Pricing

[I object 2]

Is there special pricing for booking the Sanctuary for the whole cruise versus booking a few days during the cruise?

Pre pandemic it was $30 a day if you booked the whole cruise. If you book on a per day basis it was $20 half day and $40 full day. The half day was from 8 am to noon or noon to 5 pm.

Thank you!  I rather spend a day in the Sanctuary then 10 minutes in the casino.  It will be money well spent.  LOL

   MY DH and I have spent many enjoyable hours in the Sanctuary area on a number of ships.

We found it to be a calming spot during sea days and often indulged in afternoon tea served there.

    Being mindful of the Covid-19 pandemic, there may be more limited seating in the Sanctuary than there was prior to the virus spread due to social distancing protocols. I would suggest that you go directly to the Sanctuary area as soon as you board the ship to get a reservation. It is our experience that those reservations go quickly as passengers on B2B cruises and those in suites had priority for reservations. Because of the present health situation,Princess may begin to offer pre-cruise booking for the Sanctuary in a similar way they accommodate port excursion bookings.

      I do hope you get to enjoy your future cruise and time in the Sanctuary.

Its still quite expensive. I wonder if it will even work post pandemic. I doubt it if you ask me. One of the possible options there that I can see is to avoid it for now.

Thank you for the info.  We're booked in an aft penthouse suite on the Enchanted Princess.  I'm sure there will be a lot of changes on board once ships sail again.  We'd be happy just sitting on our balcony, enjoying the view and a glass of wine.
