Rare Host CJSKIDS Posted March 1 #3251 Share Posted March 1 15 minutes ago, Steelers36 said: I had read the same you quoted, but of course PCL did not publish that they were ruining the rest of the Sanctuary for the steerage guests. From the main video provided to date, it makes perfect sense that a Suite guest can come and go as the please and use the entire space. What we do not know is if they show up expecting to use one of their padded loungers, and they are all full, will they be able to plunk down onto a sun bed lounger to wait for one to open up? The Sun Sanctuary must have some capacity control, but that doesn't mean everyone gets a lounger. IMO, we need a detailed report from a guest who interviews the Sanctuary manager and asks them a list of questions on the operation. Until then, I think we have speculated the heck out of the place. In fact, I have been thinking that the Sun Sanctuary needs its own thread topic and all posts in this thread on the subject should be moved to it. ( @Host CJSKIDS, is that too much work now with maybe 100 posts on the Sun Sanctuary- what do you think?) Can't be done, sorry. There is already a thread on the Sanctuary on the Sun. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CatMom72 Posted March 1 #3253 Share Posted March 1 21 minutes ago, Steelers36 said: True, but of course the Dome is an open public area and may have more noise. Are you sure? Just wait until the screaming children get access to the Park 19 roller glider...which looks like it runs right next to the Sanctuary pool. I don't think the glider is operational yet, so we will have to see what effect it has on the noise levels. I don't see it having a positive influence on the Sanctuary vibe, though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare PacnGoNow Posted March 1 #3256 Share Posted March 1 13 minutes ago, JimmyVWine said: Reviews of other ships that have the same set-up uniformly call the Cabana cabins that open up to the deck area the worst cabins on the ship for that exact reason. One video even showed deck loungers pressed up against the glass of the cabin's "balcony" so that if you were out on your balcony, someone else's greasy head was pressed up against your glass partition, a foot away from you. Yech! Gross! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any pictures of the Enclave? Thank you Christine The Enclave has not ever been a Suite perk. That would be the Thermal Suite on Grand and Island class ships. That said, some few Royal class ships' HGM staff decided to gift Enclave to the suite guests, in spite of it not being an actual perk (and the Suite perks listings clearly listed not an option on Royal class ships).. Discovery and Regal come to mind as two who gifted it, at least sometimes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare eroller Posted March 1 #3263 Share Posted March 1 1 hour ago, PacnGoNow said: Seems to be missing the “Decorator’s touch”. All over the ship. JMO This is pretty much how I’ve been feeling looking at the pictures and videos. Some odd color choices and carpets. Kind of amateur feeling and definitely not high style. So far nothing has me thinking “wow that is amazing” like some other new recent ships. Perhaps it’s all better in person and just doesn’t photograph well? Could very well be the case. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare JimmyVWine Posted March 1 #3265 Share Posted March 1 17 minutes ago, Steelers36 said: Oh, I still want to experience this ship. Same. I am very much looking forward to my "very heavy on the Sea Days" cruise in September. I chose the Sea Day heavy cruise specifically to experience all the ship has to offer. But much of what I am looking forward to isn't yet operational, so I'm not getting any positive feedback from the current reports which is coloring my views. Once I hear about how great the new dining venues are, and how game-changing the entertainment is, and how "Spellbound" I will be, I won't care one bit about the Sanctuary. I chose a Cabana so that I could have my own private Sanctuary. Just wish it was more zhuzhed up. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wishing on a star Posted March 1 #3268 Share Posted March 1 I will have to admit that my house has that open, simple, light/airy/sunny kind of feel mentioned.... And, I really like it! But, I would not call it industrial or minimalistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wishing on a star Posted March 1 #3270 Share Posted March 1 (edited) Why can we not discuss things that we might not like????? We all have our opinions... like some things, and disappointed in others. I think many things on the new ship are spectacular!!!! The sanctuary... maybe not.

LOVE that Princess Live has reverted back to something far more akin to the Explorer's Lounge instead of a cold, industrial TV studio. On the day that the first Princess Live was shown in mock-up I voiced my opinion that the conversion was a big mistake. Took them a decade to hear me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nasa1974 Posted March 1 Author #3274 Share Posted March 1 It's good that we can discuss what looks good and what we think is a bad idea on the new Sun. Three pages on what cabin should get signature benefits. Now three pages of gripping about the Sanctuary. There is a thread that was started Wednesday.
