Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. I've only stayed in a penthouse suite on the Jewel, it's Haven but doesn't have key access to the Haven space on this class of ship. We have attended some events in the Haven courtyard and there isn't much to it, it's just the pool and hot tub. Haven dining is in Moderno and that's where the Concierge works from during breakfast and lunch. I don't think there is a Haven bar. So if you like the "awayness" of the Haven, the Jewel Class ships don't have as much of that, but Moderno works well for the dining and the butler/concierge service is just as good or better.
  2. I have a very faint, drowsy memory of my husband looking from our aft balcony in the middle of the night saying "what is that, are those birds?" I was too sleepy to get up and look, but he seemed to definitely be observing something.
  3. I had to submit one with them off for online check in, but when I boarded the ship, they took one WITH them on. Go figure.
  4. We never smelled it forward of the aft elevators, so you're in a good position. It didn't seem to be on 11 or 12 aft, where a lot of the dining is either.
  5. I sailed on the Sun last week. The crew is great, the ship is well maintained, but compared to newer ones, beginning to seem small and dated in layout and amenities. Nothing bad though, just not all the new bells and whistles. Big plus is the Great Outdoors area of the buffet, newer ships don't have that and it's the best place to eat! The only advice I'd give is avoid any cabins aft of the rear stairs/elevator. The ship has some sort of ventilation issue and it stinks. Our aft balcony smelled like sewage most of the time.
  6. So if you put your key card in while playing in the casino, you accumulate points. What are they for? (not a high roller, LOL)
  7. It's open until 3:00am menu is fish & chips, Reubens, burgers, kind of like The Local. I'll take a pic if we are there again. Food is only available 5:30pm until 3:00am.
  8. Our cabin is on 9. The odor can be detected in the elevator lobbies from 12 all the way down to 4.
  9. Actually, the odor has persisted. The entire aft stairwell/elevator lobby smells constantly with a smell like a landfill. The cabins aft of that also have it. It isn't coming from the plumbing in our room though.
  10. Butler, concierge, "exclusive" dining area for breakfast and lunch, priority boarding and priority escorts off the ship in ports and debarkation. Afternoon snacks and other goodies delivered to the room.
  11. The ship I'm currently on has small cartons of whole milk, skim milk and chocolate milk on the buffet next to the boxes of cold cereal.
  12. It's an aft penthouse suite. #9076. The balcony is amazing!
