Can someone tell me exactly what the mini bar set up includes in the full suite? Weighing the option of the beverage package and if it is worth the added expense. Thanks

We just booked a 2020 and I haven't explored PCS site much at all. Can I order bottles of wine, hard liquor, or beer to the cabin? We have sip and sail on this trip. But would always want a couple bottles of wine in the cabin. I know I can bring on pretty much as much wine as I want. But thinking of avoiding the hassle of carrying on a case.

Yes, on the Princess website under Gifts, you can order bottles of liquor or wine from a select list. Reasonable pricing.

Or bring as much wine aboard as you like at Embarkation..

Each adult is allowed one 750 ml bottle of wine. Any additional ones are supposed to be charged the $15 corkage fee per bottle when you go through security. With the sip and sail promotion, why not just pick up a glass of wine at a bar and carry it back to your cabin instead of bringing bottles for the cabin?

We like to have more than a glass available at times in the cabin and not have to run out to grab another glass.

You can buy bottles of wine at 25% discount with the Premier Beverage package. Would be a better deal than room service (which is not covered by PBP)

Also with the PBP, you can get the small bottles/split of wine - Yellowtail? maybe? - There's a white, pink, red, they give almost two pours and each bottle only is charged as one drink against PBP. We usually stock up on a couple along the way to enjoy in cabin...

Where does one find these small bottles/splits? I’m intrigued

What ship are you sailing on as I have had the AIPB & PBP...on 4 different ships and a mini wine was only offered on one and in only one area.. in the international MP, Majestic a year ago. Beach Kite Moscato. When the AIPB started there was much better choices than there are today, my last cruise on Ruby in May. Only minis on all ships Ii saiked korbel. I used to love the Rekorderling hard cider......and true splits of robert mondavi, but gone are those days.

 

 

OP I would opt for the PBP and exchange the mini bar for a bottle of wine.

Have had them on Royal, Regal, Caribbean, and Star in the last 18 months, most recent late spring..

Have had them from Mermaid's Tail and Buffet bartenders. Haven't asked at other bars, as usual we get one or two from pool bar on way back to cabin to enjoy while getting ready for dinner. Or have one with lunch at buffet or when having dinner there.

They're not top of the line, but a decent white or pink or red, they work in a pinch..

do they replenish the complementary  mini bars after each sector or is that it for the whole cruise. Anyone know.

The complimentary mini-bar is only once per cruise. However, if the cruise is sold as multiple segments, then they replenish it after each segment.

Does anyone know if it’s possible to swap out the cans of coke and tonic for the diet versions?

You can swap for Diet Coke (Coke Light). I do not know if they have diet versions of tonic, but if they do, you can trade for those also. They also have diet Sprite you can trade for.

Thank you. Diet Coke and diet Sprite works for me. I see that the gin is Beefeater, so I’ll pass on that, so no need for diet tonic now.

You can always swap the gin for something else. As for diet tonic (I'm weird and like it better than regular tonic) if I wanted to have that onboard I'd just take some with me in my carry on luggage.
