ryarger Posted March 27 #1 Share Posted March 27 I see that as part of the January refurb, Joy's DOS suites are now "Premier Owner's Suite". Any info on these? Videos? Photos? Are the layouts and photos on NCL.com accurate? The newest video I can find is Haar's from a year ago which I assume doesn't reflect the new configuration.

Two Wheels Only Posted March 27 #2 Share Posted March 27 (edited) If you can imagine it..... Take the old Haven library and cut it in half from front to back. Give the port side half to 18100 and the starboard side half to 18700. In that new space, add a bedroom, a bathroom, and a dining room table as well as rearrange the living room and bedroom spaces.

I’ve stayed in and seen some very nice cabins….but this one? DANG!!!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beastlet Posted March 28 #4 Share Posted March 28 We just sailed on the Joy and on the last day we were almost last to get off the boat so asked if we could go look at the premier owner's suite. I didn't take pictures because I thought it would be weird to do in someone else's cabin. There was a lady there videoing the suite so maybe that will be up on youtube soon. What in particular were you looking to know? The suite was huge and wonderful. The only issue I could see with it is price. 🤣 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But understanding that they expanded it by removing the Haven library makes sense. That separate formal dining room looks so much nicer than the little table that was in the old DOS. Thank you!!

goldmom Posted March 28 #7 Share Posted March 28 It's difficult to tell from the rendering, but I seem to think that they were making this into a 3 bedroom suite along the lines of the Garden Villas on the Jewel class ships. I had seen somewhere (don't remember where) a better view and it seemed as if the 2 second bedrooms were a bit nicer than the second bedroom in the Haven 2 bed suites. But, not sure just speculating. Hopefully someone will post a video soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the original rendering from before dry dock. Note the curtains are fake looking. This is from https://www.cruisecritic.com/news/norwegian-cruise-line-announces-extensive-refurbishment-for-norwegian-joy I found pictures that are different than the original NCL CADD renderings. I cannot seem to find that NCL page now that had many more. The below pic is from Cruse Deck Plans. It looks so real I wonder if its a photo taken by NCL after drydock. The drapes look real. There is much different stuff on the tables. The TV has a picture. Maybe they are just more detailed renderings out of CADD. In the above photo the dining room is different than the below early rending. The wall art looks real. The table legs are brown wood not white marble. The chairs are different and much more real looking. The chair upper appears leather not wood and has a matching leather bottom cushion. Below I'll zoom in. Rendering before Refurb from https://www.ncl.com/newsroom/norwegian-cruise-line-announces-extensive-enhancements-to-norwegian-joy Below zoomed in on dining room... Those same renderings before refurb are on NCL.com for the Joy deck plans and cabins. https://www.ncl.com/ca/en/cruise-ship/joy/staterooms/balcony Edited March 30 by floatplan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hallux Posted March 30 #10 Share Posted March 30 There's also a YouTube video that shows a couple quick pans (the CruiseDeckPlans pictures may be screen grabs from it)... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
floatplan Posted March 30 #11 Share Posted March 30 (edited) I saw your your YT post on the other topic. At first I thought they just inserted the photo into the video. But I just watched it again full screen and it looks like a real video of the room. All the other shots in that video have the same look and are obviously real with some people. Thanks! Here's a capture at 1:24 Edit: on the CruiseNonStop website 3/9/24 trip report the below POS picture has a title that says "(Image courtesy of NCL)". Several other photos around the Haven do not have that note. Edited March 30 by floatplan Note (Image courtesy of NCL) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did end up booking the suite for next May and thus far there has been no mention of car service. In general, the POS appears to be treated identically to the DOS and not like the GV. Regardless, we’re beyond excited to be trying this huge suite. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Goldenknight Posted yesterday at 12:12 AM #15 Share Posted yesterday at 12:12 AM We will be in this suite on the Joy in a couple months. Never posted photos online, anywhere, ever, nor videos. Willing to confirm whether the stock photos match what it looks like when we embark, and also will answer any questions posted, such as amenities or the size/layout of the 3 bedrooms and 3 1/2 bathrooms. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
