Yodalicious Posted October 4, 2022 #1 Share Posted October 4, 2022 I don’t see any Lido Cabanas on the Eurodam or Nieuw Amsterdam deck plan. Are they still available or is it only Retreat Cabanas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oakridger Posted October 4, 2022 #2 Share Posted October 4, 2022 (edited) Lido cabanas are on Nieuw Amsterdam. I’m currently on board and saw them! Edited October 4, 2022 by oakridger 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoopTheSnoot Posted October 4, 2022 #3 Share Posted October 4, 2022 We loved our Lido cabana during our July 2022 Alaska cruise n the NA. Spending free time with those big windows netted us some great whale sightings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Essiesmom Posted October 4, 2022 #5 Share Posted October 4, 2022 I see them on the Eurodam deck plans, port side Lido deck. EM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amsterdam. They rented by calling Ships Services. Sorry, don't have the phone number with me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HAL Cabana Info The prices are still correct for the retreat cabanas so I'll go out on a limb and say they are probably correct for the lido ones.

In hot weather, or when the pool roof is closed, these cabanas can get quite stuffy due to limited air circulation and humidity from the pool.

I wouldn’t take one if you gave it to me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I love the Retreat and always book a cabana there. That gives me the option of sunshine or shade, while the Lido cabanas give the option of stifling humidity or just humidity....oh, and people walking past your cabana gawking at you. The pool is not important to me, which obviously is a factor in my likes/dislikes. Sue/WDW1972 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I spend too much time indoors either working or because it’s stupid cold a good portion of the year. I love spending time outside either in the cabana or enjoying the sunshine.

Yodalicious Posted October 8, 2022 Author #15 Share Posted October 8, 2022 Thank you all for your responses! It has been a few years since our last cruise and did not see them on the website. They were one of the best things on the ship! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t see them on the deck plans either so it’s odd. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chisoxfan Posted October 12, 2022 #17 Share Posted October 12, 2022 We love the Lido Cabanas and would select a HAL ship with them (and BB Kings) as major factors in cruise decision. FYI I was just quoted a Lido at 373 for a 11 night cruise from HAL. We have been a bit shell shocked at some of the recent cruise pricing- 11 nights (early 24 Carribean) with balcony at approx. 5800 has us thinking hard and looking at all inclusives which have offered more value to us the past few years. We will probably keep an eye on fares to see if they moderate (pricing was similar for 10 night and for different ships). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read how some folks preferred an inside room + cabana over a balcony. I'm planning a multi-generational trip for Alaska/late July/Koningsdam. Are the Koningsdam cabanas (sounds like no Lido cabins) worthwhile for this sailing? Are they too rainy/windy/cold to be enjoyable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
friendswithdave Posted October 12, 2022 #19 Share Posted October 12, 2022 dlca1, we were on this sailing and ship this year. The Retreat Cabanas were completely unused and vacant. Yes, it is a little too cool to be enjoyable on the Koningsdam in Alaska. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone has to pay for the cruises they are giving away for free. I'm thinking the same thing as you regarding holidays or at least another cruise line.

I wouldn't take one for free in Alaska. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
