Jenjohncourt Posted August 25, 2021 #1 Share Posted August 25, 2021 I’m currently onboard this beautiful ship. Having the best time celebrating my birthday. One of the highlights is the Thermal Spa!! It hasn’t been crowded and worth every penny. IMG_0057.MOV 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coastcat Posted August 25, 2021 #2 Share Posted August 25, 2021 (edited) You're braver than I am. I stuck my head into the snow room and noped right back out of there (and back into the thalassotherapy pool).

ClevelandCruisin Posted August 26, 2021 #4 Share Posted August 26, 2021 We have a spa balcony booked for a cruise soon. Can't wait! Snow room for sure, and the salt room. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J0Y0US Posted August 26, 2021 #8 Share Posted August 26, 2021 It looks amazing, we are thinking about booking at a last second cruise on this ship next month in a Spa Suite possibly. How busy around the ship has it been in general? Can you get dinner reservations fairly easy? Did they ever announce or you hear how many passengers on board by chance?

jcscv Posted August 27, 2021 #11 Share Posted August 27, 2021 I love the snow room (or at least for a few minutes, lol). I'm going to be on Encore in 3 weeks, and still debating on if I'm going to purchase the Thermal Spa pass. Your pictures have almost convinced me!

Rare voyager1964 Posted August 27, 2021 #12 Share Posted August 27, 2021 Beautiful! May I ask you a couple of questions - Is the sauna also open? - How steep are the stairs to get to the T-pool? Thanks, Voyager Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ecco41 Posted August 27, 2021 #13 Share Posted August 27, 2021 is access to the Spa only on a weekly basis, or do they have day passes? I assume I can purchase this once I am on the ship? There are three of us in my party. Any suggestions or advice would be appreciated. I am a novice to cruising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A YouTube Blogger recently did a day pass whilst on ship in Ketchikan and it was $59pp for a single day pass on a port day. They said the single day passes were not available on sea days on their sailing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have very sturdy hand rails too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It depends on the ship and the itinerary. I paid $199 for my upcoming cruise to Bermuda on the Breakaway. I think I paid $299 for the week on the same trip on the Escape pre-COVID. Either way, it’s worth every penny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the Sep 4 sailing on the Encore, it is $249 pp if booked pre- cruise. I believe it is an additional $20 if booked onboard (that would jive with the quotes of $269). Pre-booking is done by phone call; not available online. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Busy at times but not crowded. There is always that one person who thinks they can save 4 heated loungers for the whole family.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
