I've been wondering 1.) if Crown or Sur La Mer were open for lunch on Sea Days, but it looks like they are not, and 2.) if I can make last minute/day-of reservations for specialty restaurants and it is starting to sound like I probably could. Let me know if I am mistaken about #1 or #2.

1. No they are not open for lunch. 2. If you are in a suite I don’t think you’ll have a problem but if your ship is full it might be harder to book last minute.

At Nick Sans for lunch. The guys ate the sushi before I could get a pic!😂😂

Good to see dining in Bistro Sur la Mer.  It was a Ghost Town on our sailing.  Also agree on Crown, our meal was sub-par at best.  Seen anyone is the Salty Dog Gastro Pub?

We've ate at Salty Dog multiple times. Worth the cover charge. 😋 Delicious

First night specialty dinner is free if you are in a full suite. No problem getting a table

Asking again.....just because..........can anyone tell me what the blank space is next to D315 - inside between front & mid elevators? Just want to make sure it's not crew storage area

I just went to D315 and checked. The room next to it, outside sign says “crew only”.  I opened the door and saw inside has 4 elevators. I asked a cabin steward passing by, he said those are elevators crews use to bring up and down passengers’ luggage on embarkation and disembarkation.

Is it me or is that ship in the distance listing hard to port???

[HBCcruiser]

We got back to the ship and went to Sabatini’s. The food was awesome! Marianna the head waiter is fantastic!!

I’m on the Sapphire LA to Hawaii- we get to Hilo tomorrow.  I’ve been surprised by how well the internet has worked so far. At least for emails, messaging & posting here. Even made a couple WiFi phone calls and did FT with DH. We are at 88% capacity. 
 

Have a great cruise 💃💃

 

I am so sorry to be catching up to you so late.  If I was more on top of things (very long story), I would have made contact with you much sooner.  I am picking up friends at 11 when the Sapphire arrives in HNL.  It would have been so much fun finally getting to meet you and showing you around.  Hope you get this message, anyway.

@HBCcruiser  Having reserved seats in the theater is the very best perk for the Sky Suite.  Hope you are enjoying every minute of this cruise.  Sounds like it.  Do you get to pick the seats or are they pre-assigned?

We had a balcony dinner tonight and it was amazing!

The full moon was an extra perk! 

 

Dinner last night at Sur was delicious and one of the best filets I've put in my mouth. 😜

 

Ricky in crooners will take you on a cocktail adventure 

[HBCcruiser]

We are having the balcony breakfast and dinner today while the weather is nice.

 

[HBCcruiser]

I’ll post some pics while I have cell service.

 

[HBCcruiser]

Included with the suite- hair and bath products

 

More pics of the balcony.

 

 

 

Out the back door is the Retreat pool hot tub area. Nice and quiet!

Thanks for that great information.  
 

if you get a chance could you find out about hosting a cocktail party with a bartender for around 20 people?  I think I read you can do that. I’ve got that sky suite for the eclipse cruise and was thinking a cocktail party after the eclipse would be a great way to celebrate.  Is it possible? and how stupid crazy expensive is it?  Thank you so much!  

 

You can host parties. The price will vary depending upon what you order and if everyone has the beverage package. If everyone has the premium bev package you’d only need to pay for the servers and food. She said it’s not that expensive. 

[HBCcruiser]

Balcony breakfast. Yum!

Looks like you guys are having an amazing time! Loving all the pictures!

Thank you so much! You went over & above! I owe you a drink(or two or three....) if we are ever on a cruise together! I would have peeked in the door also! I'm thinking it may not be a good room? What is your opinion?
