We are booked in a penthouse suite and will be on our 5th Oceania cruise.  Will we get a tote?

Any other goodies?

Thanks for the info.

At a minimum you will get the tote bag and thermos water bottles. These you can take off the ship on port days and you can take them home with you.

In addition to the regular swag (metal water bottles and other one time use items...slippers, toiletries), you'll get the bronze level goodies since it's your 5th cruise (tote, hat, wine...almost forgot the pin 😉 ) https://www.oceaniacruises.com/oceania-club-benefits

and PH goodies (just? champagne) https://www.oceaniacruises.com/suites
I think a 2nd tote bag, but someone who has actually had a milestone cruise in a PH will need to confirm.

The only time we’ve ever received the hat is on our recent 20th cruise.  We’ve never bothered to take the pins, and didn’t bother with the tote.  The previous ones were much better.

On our fifth cruise we received a bottle of wine, two pins, two totes (although one was all we needed so we gave the other one back) and were supposed to get a hat but they didn't have any at that time.  But we were offered two tote bags and we were in Concierge.  We've never gone back to get the hat or hats.  The tote was nice and we still use it.  We still always get a bottle of wine.  We always take it home with us and I think we have a bottle in the cellar now.  It's not great but drinkable.  You do get a bottle of champagne on the Concierge level and it's good.

 

We've never stayed in PH level so you might get even more there.

Thanks. Not listed on ours but I would assume because not taken the 4th one yet, just booked.

Correct.

Are there restrictions on what the "Milestone" ship board credit can be used? Can SBC be used for gratuities?

You don't become Bronze (or silver or gold) after a specific number of cruises. You need a certain number of points. Different length cruises have different points

Yes, but, they do refer to it as Cruise Credits, not points.

In an Oceania Suite and above, in addition to the blue tote bag mentioned above, you get the following:

• Large cloth zippered Oceania bag.  It is filled with all of the following for you to keep:
• 2 large O beach towels
• 2 O baseball caps
• Kit of sunscreen products

 

Our recent cruise was our first O cruise since covid, and we had forgotten about getting all this.  We really had a hard time cramming it into our suitcases to take home since it is so large.

I just noticed yet another of those bags complete with beach towels, etc. on our balcony….we too always feel so bad having to leave some behind….esp on B2Bs when you receive for each portion of the cruise!  Hard to haul them all home….

 

Truly First World problems most of us in these Boards are dealing with, right?

No restrictions on any ship board credit except the Simply More excursion credit (which can only be used on purchasing excursions).  All other credit can be used for anything onboard (excursions, gratuities, alcoholic drinks, spa, boutique, etc.). The only place any ship board credit can not be used is in the casino.
