Ship tip

We loved the Ruby Princess, almost identical to the Ruby. Didn’t discover the Sauna and Steamrooms until 3rd week, worth checking out Sun deck off the Spa corridor toilet/shower facilities near forward pool

Hi Shirley097 - Yes sauna and steamrooms both free to use. They are situated in the male and female shower/toilet ares. Free for all passengers onboard. My husband said there were always a couple of people in the male sauna & steam rooms but I never saw anyone else in the female sauna/steam rooms. Wanted to share this tip as like ourselves I don't think most people realise they are there.
