GMS4771 Posted April 26, 2015 #651 Share Posted April 26, 2015 Ok then they just have the wrong descriptions for the A3 Aquatheater suites for May 2016 deck plans. I was wondering how they were going to add a 2nd bedroom and 2nd bathroom and additional square feet without refurbishing the whole thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
setsail Posted April 26, 2015 #652 Share Posted April 26, 2015 (edited) If a suite guest does not have a cabana they cannot invite non suite guests to use the beach. Not true at all on every cruise. Its all about the wristband Edited April 26, 2015 by setsail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cricketts Posted April 26, 2015 #653 Share Posted April 26, 2015 I'm disappointed that Royal's suite upgrades will be postponed until the fall according to other posts. I will see how the my Liberty cruise goes and then start doing research. Anything else out there besides the Haven and Yacht Club? Other posters have suggested these two. HAL and Carnival are out. I'm not familiar with Yacht Club, and have never traveled NCL. We have had suites on HAL and Carnival - why are they out? What about Princess?

What about Princess? Yatch Club is on MSC , it's service is not available on Royal. fully stocked mini bar, separate pool and lounge, special dining room. the price is about the price of ms on royal.

alexkrn46 Posted April 26, 2015 #656 Share Posted April 26, 2015 Does anyone know how/when they are going to be changing the new aft grand suites on Oasis? They just created them 11330,730, 12330, 730 and 14330, 730 and they're changing them to Aqua suites, I'm wondering how they're going to make them 2 bedrooms/bathrooms without increasing sq footage? I am booked in 12330 on Oasis in March are they going to change my cabin without telling me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CVU Posted April 26, 2015 #657 Share Posted April 26, 2015 I am booked in 12330 on Oasis in March are they going to change my cabin without telling me? Maybe a nice reduction!:D #592They're not going to structurally change the rooms at all. They will just no longer be priced as GS, but be priced according to the size and what not. They'll most likely be less expensive than the oginal Aqua Suites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sun and Fun Posted April 26, 2015 #659 Share Posted April 26, 2015 We were in the penthouse (only one and biggest on the ship) on Carnival Freedom and it was smaller than the GS we were in on the Radiance of the Seas with no perks whatsoever. Maybe we had priority boarding. Not much incentive to get a suite on Carnival. I hope for upgrades for our OS on Freedom of the Seas in January, but I will gladly pay extra for a comfortable room with a large balcony. I like the concierge lounge and the priority on/off the ship are nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like Carnival Corporation and Royal Caribbean International just have a different philosophy and approach :rolleyes: Isn't it nice that we have options! It also points out why so many of us are loyal to Royal :) Even if they don't add more suite benefits, RCCL offers an excellent package of perks!

Cindy Posted April 27, 2015 #662 Share Posted April 27, 2015 HAL doesn't have the suite amenities compared to Royal. Carnival has none. I'll add Princess to my list. Thanks. We were quite happy with the suite perks on HAL...they're different than Royal Caribbean's, but they still offer some good perks. I didn't think the suite itself was as nice inside, but we had an awesome wrap around aft balcony. I agree about Carnival -- the only reason to book a suite is for the extra real estate.

cricketts Posted April 29, 2015 #664 Share Posted April 29, 2015 We just heard back from the "Executive Office" concerning balcony furnishings in the Grand Suites on Navigator... "The Grand Suites should have lounge chairs on the balcony, unless there is a restriction based on the dimensions of the balcony. Please be assured that your stateroom will have all furnishing in place, including the lounge chair." We're very happy campers :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bighairtexan Posted April 29, 2015 #665 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Yes I was in a GS on the NAV earlier this month. Lounge chair plus a nice sized table and 2 chairs outside. The balcony wasn't all that deep but plenty wide. And unlike the JS or below, there is a coffee table in the sitting area inside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balcony had 2 loungers, 2 chairs and a small table. RFS next to us had wicker furniture with brown pads. It also had 3 noisy little girls. :eek: Edited April 29, 2015 by John&LaLa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our Royal Family Suite on the NAV had crappy lounges (2) full size table and 4-chairs with No Pads. Nothing Royal about that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the concierge lounge and the priority on/off the ship are nice. On Freedom, they also have breakfast for suite guests daily in one of the specialty restaurants. That's one of our favorite perks. If you're stopping in Labadee, Barefoot Beach is for suite guests and it's just lovely. Haven't sailed in a suite on FOS yet, but we have our first OS on her in September. Was just in a GS on Liberty, and would walk down the hall and sometimes caught a glimpse inside an OS and they're very nice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jules815 Posted May 4, 2015 #675 Share Posted May 4, 2015 I knew it was too good to be true for 2015. :( As long as they don't do away with anything that's currently being offered as a suite perk, and we can get some cushions on the balconies before our cruise in September, I'll be okay. :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
