Default Ben and Jerry Suite

We just booked the Ben and Jerry Sweet for Liberty of the Seas on Jan 14. What are the benefits of staying in this room?

I stayed in it on Freedom.

We got Concierge Lounge access cards, two tickets for both of us to get one free ice cream from Ben and Jerry's each day, and of course we got to enjoy all the cow decorations in the room.

I have read reports that the benefits vary by ship, so your mileage may vary. Good luck!

When we had the "sweet" on Liberty they had just discontinued the Concierge access. The daily ice cream made up for it. Have fun!!

The CL lounge was included on May 6, 2012 sailing on the Freedom. Someone in our roll call had the cabin booked.

The CL was included last October when we stayed in the Sweet on the Freedom.

The ice cream vouchers are one per person, per day, and cannot be 'saved up'. So you should look forward to eating ice cream every day

We stayed in it on liberty ots in february of this year. It included concierge lounge access and two vouchers that were good for ice cream each day. The concierge lounge was a huge benefit. We were treated like gold there

Our little kids had the B&J sweet twice.

The lady at Ben & Jerry's always gave them the giantic cones are the huge bowls even though you they are only supposed to give you a small.

She was very nice.

We used the conciere lounge but it was kind of boring in there.

How can you find out which one is the "sweet" cabin for each of the ships?

I believe the stateroom number is 6305 on all the Freedom class ships.

They seem to be snapped up pretty far in advance. You can't beat the perks for the price paid.
