Noordam cabana

[Cheekyrn1]

I’m confused. I’m looking at cabana info page where it clearly states there are retreat cabanas on Noordam yet when I call to book the agent tells me that the Noordam does not have any cabanas. Which is true?  Thank you

There have been reports that the cabanas may have been removed on some or all of the Vista class ships. This might be confirmation.

Hope not got one booked on the Oosterdam for 12 days from Wednesday.

I'm pretty sure it's only Noordam where the Retreat was removed.  However, I think on Oosterdam the cabanas have some silly cabinet thing and a settee rather than 2 chaise lounges.  Haven't seen it in person - only photos, and not something I would want.

Definitely no cabanas on Noordam when we were on her in November 2022.

We were on the Noordam in march & definitely no cabanas then (which is a good thing, I think - not a fan of ship within a ship concept)

Except cabanas aren't "ship within a ship", as anyone can book them. They are not only available to those in certain cabin levels.

I know that. Just not a fan of areas on any ship not open to all passengers, whether by cabin class or payable.
