A: The Promenade deck is Deck 5. You may hear a bit of noise when on Deck 6 depending on where your cabin is located. The quietest decks typically are those with stateroom decks above and below.
Answered by jeffreyschill on March 5, 2023
A: Hosting the White Hot Night (all ages and at multiple venues aprox 2-3 hours on 1 night) vs the ship holding just the White Hot Dance Party (a 60 minute long happy hour in the Nightclub only for 18+) is at the discretion of the CD in conjunction with... the head DJ. This can alter sailing to sailing on a ship as the crew combination changes with differing contract lengths.See More

A: If you are at all sensitive to changes in soap or shampoo bring your own. The provided jell in the shower is ok but I much prefer bringing my own. I will always bring my own shampoo though. That’s personal preference.
Answered by PBandJ616 on January 16, 2023
A: yea bring your own, you don't know how your skin will react to the soap and shampoo
Answered by LadyBugT on January 16, 2023
A: Cruise ships supply the same kinds of things hotels do. So if you’re happy with hotel supplies, the ships will be fine.
Answered by GriffFamily on January 16, 2023
A: Hi. There’s shampoo and shower gel in the bathrooms. We bring our own bar soap and conditioner. Thanks
Answered by Carnivalfoodie on January 16, 2023
A: Carnival provides standard generic body wash, 2 in 1 shampoo, and hand soap. Not the greatest quality so I suggest bringing a good quality conditioner and whole body moisturizer. On ship's w/ the Cloud 9 spa, Spa level cabins get better toiletries as... part of their special perks.See More
Answered by maryred on January 16, 2023
A: We love using the ship’s towels on shore. All the sand gets handed off and a new towel is collected for the pool and next shore excursion.
Answered by GriffFamily on January 16, 2023
A: We always use the ship’s towels. Many times , you can exchange them right as you are coming back on ship for clean ones. You will find the ship’s towels in your cabin upon embarkation.
Answered by lsbs on January 18, 2023
A: We bring our own beach towels because they are thinner when you carry them off the ship. Plus if you lose them, then it’s not a big deal. If you lose the supplied towel from the boat there will be a charge.
Answered by ss644 on January 18, 2023
A: The ship provides them, even fir off ship use. But be careful to return the same number of them to the area you got them from. Otherwise they charge you about $25 per lost or misplaced towel.
Answered by maryred on January 16, 2023
A: we onto pack any towels in our luggage. it takes up yo much room, you don't wash them for a week and boybdo they stink your luggage up coming home.

A: As everyone has said, yes, but they're not really fridges, more like coolers. They don't get nearly as cold as a fridge. I always ask my room steward to keep an ice bucket in it to keep it cooler.
Answered by hnewsh79 on November 19, 2022
A: yes they all have the mini fridge, some work better than others. We have found keeping the outer door propped open helps with airflow around the fridge
Answered by sherryc71 on November 18, 2022
A: Mini fridge inside cabinet. Keep cabinet door cracked open for air flow for better cooling as someone else said previously.

Answered by WuzMonk on September 9, 2022
A: I just got off on Saturday and was around $12 something with the 18% included now if you go to Alchemy bar is much more. I had the Remedy drink and was $16 something with the 18%. For me or my husband the drink package wasn't worth it plus we wasn't... able to use the package first day in New York.See More
Answered by laflaca30 on September 12, 2022
A: If you're contemplating the drink package, I found it to be worth it because with just alcohol consumption we would break even and it also includes smoothies, specialty coffee, Gatorade, etc. that plus the peace of mind of having it paid ahead of tim... e was worth it.See More
Answered by pphelan983 on September 17, 2022
A: One of the best benefits I personally find in getting the drink package is the freedom to order and try things I’d be less likely to try if I knew I was plunking down $12+ per drink. Knowing I have 15, I start finding myself far outside of my typical... drink lane and I think that can be fun.See More
Answered by HarryMess on September 19, 2022
A: You can have a bottle of alcohol delivered to your state room prior to embarking if you don’t get the cheers package. You are supposed to only drink it in your room but it could supplement your bar drinks when you go to to your room for breaks!
Answered by rachelleona on February 13, 2023
A: Yes. We used the cabin steward business card, and it worked very well.
