Unfortunately no. There is only the big round bed that cant be moved and there is little room around the bed. The bed is very big and comfy and has no problem sleeping 2. But there is no room for another bed. You may want to check out a 2 bedroom suite if you need 2 beds.

Damn! Thanks for the info.

Does the Epic have any penthouse suite cabins that have two beds vs the one round bed? Traveling with my sis and we like our own beds. Love her but don't want to sleep with her! Thanks for your help

To all of my fellow cruisers that responded with useful info, thank you so much. To those with negative or sarcStic comments, I choose to ignore you. Wish me luck all. Please keep the useful/positive comments coming. Thanks again. Laurie

I have been searching the Internet for an NCL site that posts positions on their cruise ships. I am 60, love cruising NCL and would like to work on one of their ships. I have a business degree and believe I may be a nice fit. Does anyone know whom to contact? Thank you:):)

Thank you for the replies. I am traveling with 3 couples so we will be together at dinner. NCL has a fantastic singles meet and mingle and I was hoping RCCL had something similar. I'm new to this game.

Yes.... Had them in my Bloody Mary's on the Anthem last month!!!

Thank you so much, hopefully they will be on the Jewel. Was sailing on the Anthem wonderful?

I'm traveling on the Jewel in 2 weeks, a last minute decision. Traveling with cruise friends since 2003 and it will be a blast. They are married and I'm now single and would like to know if there are any venues or get togethers for a person in their fifties? ThNks for replies. Happy cruising

Sailing in 2 weeks!!! We love our pre-dinner martini when we cruise. Recently on Another cruise line and they had a green olive stuffed with a tiny pickle that was to die for. Does RCCL have these? Found them online but I really don't want to pack them in case of breakage. Don't want to smell like a pickle for 7 days. Responses please. Happy cruising.

It's a fun cruise line but I'm done with them as well as my friends. Service ok, food ok, targets families on budgets and it has lost its appeal as we mow trVel without children. Depends what you are looking for.

If you go to cruise line rooms dot com, that site is free and shows pictures of cabins. 10166 is shown, which is right next to one of the cabins you mentioned and should be a pretty close replica of it.

Thank you for this info, so happy you posted this

Fellow Cruisers, I am on the Getaway as I type this. I am in an aft balcony and I am very saddened by the amount of garbage that has appeared on our balcony. There have been numerous cigarette butts, granola bar wrappers and half eaten sandwiches. I believe all that read this, being CC bloggers would not do this. Question, how do we make others stop?!? I am paying premium wifi time to send this so hopefully you know I am sincere about what I am posting. On a nice note, we are on a fantastic Xmas Cruise on the getaway. Any questions, please ask.

nCL told me d there not 18% tip charge for beverages..Am I right? Also for the Upssclae dining package there is not a fee tacked on for the dining charge. Do I have this right? Would like to hear from cruisers that had these perk packages. Any definite answer would be so appreciated.

Multiple trees throughout the ship. The ones on either side of the big screen in Atrium were attractive . . .

The week before the actual Christmas sailing, the Food/Beverage team created a gingerbread village in front of Le Bistro that was quite nice. Here is a before & after picture . . .

Even Bong's Mojito Bar was festively adorned . . .

So festive thanks for posting

I have not cruised on the Getaway for Christmas but have on NCL ships. There will be decorations all over, but it will still look like a cruise ship. There are wreaths and trees about. The dining room will have holiday center pieces. They usually have some sort of gingerbread village or two (atrium and or buffet area). There is a special Christmas show (well there was on the smaller ships in the main theatre) and music around (depends on the performers). There is a special Christmas meal for dinner in the MDRs. The always available part of the menu did not seem to be available, but the meal was terrific. Santa makes a few appearances. Also bring your own decorations for your door if you like.

ThNk you for the info. Our 1st holiday cruise and I'm excited

Where is the link to the sail away?

Go to the buffet, serve yourself and bring it back to your cabin

The CEO is way off in left field. After one cruise at the higher nickel and diming pricings for specialty restaurants, room service and drink prices, taxes and tips, cruisers may decide to chose anoth line. I love cruising NCL but the rules are getting way to complicated. So much for their "free style" montera!

From what I have read, I'd you have the UBP you are not charged tax or the 18% tip. Anyone heard different?

Has anyone stayed in this cabin. I'm curious about the butler service. How is the concierge? Is dinner served in the Haven dining room and is the menu varied from the MDR? Thanks

BirdTravels, Thsnk you, sounds like the island has been I poved

We will be there December 2915. It'd love to hear positive because I was there when they were renovating, in Sept 2012. The flies were all over the food, the food lines were long and the beach chairs were all taken. I am traveling for the holiday with my daughter and her boyfriend. Has this beach changed for the better? I would,love to hear details of how they have improved this beach because I truly don't want to spend the day on the ship. Thank you

Yes, Yes, and Yes.

 

Enjoy!! :)

Thank you, more details if you have time please? So excited

I cruised on the Getaway in February and had a wonderful time. This will be my first Christmas cruise (a bucket list item). Traveling with my daughter and her boyfriend. How is a Christmas cruise different from other times of the year? Do they decorate the ship? Do they play Christmas music? Is there a special Christmas meal..... Any replies are so appreciated

No, it's covered prior to sailing.

Thank you
