Rare Tree_skier Posted June 30, 2023 #1 Share Posted June 30, 2023 I'm just looking for recent experience with the water package. Are you actually getting Evian water in 1L bottles or are they still only providing the same no name brand water in 500ml bottles they used to provide? I've ordered the 12 pack and I'm expecting to receive 12 1L bottles. There is obviously a big difference in quality and volume between the two.

3CatsInMA Posted June 30, 2023 #2 Share Posted June 30, 2023 I don't see how there's a difference in volume. (12) 1L = (24) 500 ml. I just ordered the Evian package for our Oct trip...I'm also curious as to what will actually be in the room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Tree_skier Posted June 30, 2023 Author #3 Share Posted June 30, 2023 As far as the difference in volume I ordered the 12 pack. I they end up giving 12 of the no name brand water then I get half the value... I'd be pretty disappointed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Georgeny Posted June 30, 2023 #4 Share Posted June 30, 2023 Just off the Liberty of the Seas. You will be disappointed expecting liter bottles. It is Evian and they are 500ml or 16 oz small bottles. Very over priced no doubt! The water package is way overpriced except for the convenience of having the awaiting in the cabin. We also received 4 bottles of water that were complimentary for us, those were another brand same size, small. George in NY 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The no name had a name of course but I didn't recognize it, was the " house " brand I imagine. We didn't pay for that was a Diamond Plus benefit.

Georgeny Posted June 30, 2023 #9 Share Posted June 30, 2023 The shame of this whole process is that no where do they tell want you are buying size wise. Only option and stated information is 12 or 24 pack. Well common sense pack of what, Evian, 500ml or 1 liter etc. You could call the line but from all my experiences they either can't tell you or give you incorrect information anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare HappyTexan44 Posted June 30, 2023 #10 Share Posted June 30, 2023 And really if they told the size and it was 1L, I'd probably get it. But the idea of getting 12 small, and then no room to fuss makes me not buy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary2T Posted June 30, 2023 #11 Share Posted June 30, 2023 Was on the 6/15/23 Liberty sailing. Ordered the "Water bottle package (24 Bottles)" back in November of 22. So the old water bottle package at the old price. We had a case of the house brand bottles in the 16oz-ish (500ml?) size. We board Oasis next week, and have 2x of the same package ordered (also from November 22). I'm expecting the house brand again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George in NY Just checked my receipt for my Oct cruise and it does say 12 pack 500 so I'm not anticipating liters. I "gifted" it to myself from the gift page since that was cheaper than it was ever offered. This is just to have some in the room so I can live with the 500 ml but it better not be a house brand!

My description very clearly states 12 or 24 1 liter bottles. If they only give me 12 500ml bottles I will be requesting another 12 dozen from GS or a credit for 50% of the value.

You're going to need a bigger [cabin on the] boat. 😄 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also ordered this 12-pk 1 liter bottles for quite a few of my upcoming cruises. I wonder if my bank thinks these repetitive $27.12 Visa charges are an error! I filed the RC emailed receipts in my e-folder per cruise. I prefer Evian, but more importantly if I don't get the equivalent 1 liter size bottles, I will be asking GS for additional bottles or a refund. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
