Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. Both Jamies (Hotel Manager and Club Director) are currently on board SD2.
  2. Commodore Suites are created by combining specific adjacent suites on Decks 2 and 3 (for example 204/206, 304/306, 317/319, etc), They are identified on the Deck Plans on the SD website (https://seadream.com/yachts/deck-plans) by diagonal lines drawn through 2 adjacent staterooms. In one of each Commodore Suite there is a Murphy bed that can be retracted into the wall when the suite is part of a Commodore and can be used as a bed when the stateroom is not part of a Commodore and is a standalone stateroom. I'm not sure which of the staterooms have Murphy beds and I'm not sure that there is a practical difference as I haven't heard anybody comment negatively about there experience being in a stateroom featuring a Murphy Bed. Nevertheless, one would think that SD would have that information and publish it but I guess not....
  3. For a number of years, our go to hotel for a short pre-cruise stay has been the Sheraton Old San Juan. It is right across the street from the port and depending on where SD docks can be an easy walk to the ship. We arrived at the hotel yesterday for a one night stay prior to embarking SD1 today. The hotel is currently undergoing major renovation which frankly is overdue. However, we were surprised to discover that construction begins promptly at 7 AM as the very loud sound of drilling began. Calling Guest Services resulted in apologies and a promise to tell the Assistant Manager but nothing more. I don't know how long the work is scheduled to last nor do I know whether they work on the weekends. However, I would strongly recommend against staying here until the construction work has been completed.
  4. Hi there. Looking forward to seeing you both soon. My understanding is that the following will be on board: Captain Kristian, Hotel Manager Eric, Maitre 'd Leo,Club Director Jamie, Activities Manager Frud, Chef Alistair, Sommelier Frank. If I missed any positions of interest, please let me know.
  5. We stayed at The Ivens last year. We too liked it and will stay there again.
  6. Zimmy, I'll fill you in later this month 🙂.
  7. I subsequently learned that there is new carpet and new material on the furniture in the Main Salon.
  8. As best I can tell, this was routine maintenance. Nothing looks different to me other than fresh paint, varnish, etc.
  9. We stayed at The Ivens previously and are planning to do so again in November. Particularly good choice for Bonvoy afficionados 😀.
  10. $999 each net after discount for early booking.
  11. I hear that SD was able to obtain additional race tickets yesterday. Friends of ours booked on the voyage but waitlisted for race tickets were able to purchase them yesterday. Not sure if any remain but worth checking.
  12. We booked this one as well. Never been to Monaco GP, on SD or otherwise. Looking forward to it!
  13. For what it's worth, we docked at Grenada which was not embarkation or disembarkation port a couple weeks ago. So, it's rare but not unheard of.
  14. Agree with this although we've been to all those ports on SD and I don't recall that Zodiacs were required for any of them.
  15. Yes, of course you are right on the ending port of that trip. SD did end a TA in London a number of years ago but at this point it looks as if currently scheduled TA's do conclude either in Lisbon or Malaga. Sorry for the fake news. I'm sure you'll have plenty of time sunbathing on deck and equally sure that you'll have a wonderful trip. There's plenty to do and what could be better than SD 24/7 for days at a time? Wish we could join you on the voyage and can't wait to hear about it. Best wishes to you both for a wonderful holiday season. We wish we could properly celebrate NYE in St. Bart's with you in a few weeks!
