cocacola86 Posted September 5, 2016 #1 Share Posted September 5, 2016 What's a good ship for the Caribbean that has the spa balconys, what's all included with the spa balcony and is it worth it Sent from my iPad using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cap'n Ron Posted September 5, 2016 #2 Share Posted September 5, 2016 The Escape, Getaway and Breakaway all have a very nice spa. The spa balcony gives you access to the Mandara Spa thermal suite (saunas, hot tub, heated pool, showers, heated tile loungers, etc). Well worth it imho. We enjoyed it so much on the Escape, that we have a spa balcony reserved for the Getaway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare BirdTravels Posted September 5, 2016 #5 Share Posted September 5, 2016 (edited) The Escape has the nicest thermal suite. Lots of stone and regular loungers that wrap around the entire bow of the ship. The Saunas have windows that look out over the ocean. IMHO, the Epic (sailing the Western Carib out of Port Canaveral) has the second nicest thermal suite. It has an outside balcony with loungers and saunas with large picture windows looking out. Third is the Getaway. The seating is a little tighter than the Escape. And the saunas are on the interior of the ship, so there are no windows.

cocacola86 Posted September 5, 2016 Author #8 Share Posted September 5, 2016 We've only sailed Carnival I've heard good and bad things about NCL what's your thoughts. Some I heard the Escape is crowded, do you get anything else with the spa room other than access to the spa.

Some I heard the Escape is crowded, do you get anything else with the spa room other than access to the spa. Sent from my iPad using Forums mobile app The pool area is the most crowded area, but otherwise, the ship handles the crowds pretty well. Most of the big ships have areas that cause congestion, and the buffet can get very busy during peak times. I wouldn't let it deter you from trying the Escape. We love the ship and are looking forward to the Getaway next year. Entertainment, food and service were all excellent. The spa balcony cabin only gives you spa access, and no other privileges. There is a Haven Spa suite, which we had, and that does get you into the Haven areas as well as the spa area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cocacola86 Posted September 5, 2016 Author #10 Share Posted September 5, 2016 Do you get bottled water everyday in the spa cabins? How're the UDP or the UBP Sent from my iPad using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bear3412 Posted September 5, 2016 #11 Share Posted September 5, 2016 Escape balconies are deeper than the Away ships too fwiw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cap'n Ron Posted September 5, 2016 #12 Share Posted September 5, 2016 Do you get bottled water everyday in the spa cabins? How're the UDP or the UBP Sent from my iPad using Forums mobile app I believe Celebrity does that, but NCL does not. The UDP and UBP are great, especially if you get them via the Free at Sea promos. Some complain that bottled water isn't included the UBP, but if it is a free promo, I'm not complaining. We enjoyed 3 meals at the specialty dining venues via our UDP.
