  1. I like them both, great concierges, is eight weeks roughly the length of their vacation, Nizar was on our last cruise but I would love to see Raj again in September.

     

    Last time we cruised on Independence Ryno Strapp was the Concierge and we liked him. I know he was temporary but was wondering whether he still works in Concierge, anyone know?

     

    We are cruising on Independence again in August this year.

  2. Ryno Strapp on the Indy. Anyone had him before??

     

    Yes,Ryno (pronounced Rayno) was our concierge when we sailed on Indy from 11 August-25 August 2012. He was fab. Very attentive and happy to help with anything we needed. Not sure he's still there though as I understood he was doing the job temporarily. It's a shame if he is not though.

  3. There was Zumba on Freedom of The Seas this past week. But they call it Latin Dance Aerobics in the cruise compass. They can't call it Zumba because of the licensing of the name, but that's what the Latin Dance Aerobics is. Hope this helps you ladies out.

     

    Hi nicole. Can you remember what other classes were available? I would go to the Latin one anyway, just nosey as to what else is on offer.

  4. Hi again. More questions!! I've just been looking at new posts and came across one querying what bathroom products to pack for the Oosterdam. The replies were that they got Elemis products. Now I love Elemis and am wondering what brand, if any, is provided in the Grand Suites on IOTS.

  5. We had a GS on the Jewel recently. One of the additional perks that I loved was morning breakfast in Chops. Breakfast was made to order and you could also get a New York Strip Steak. It was wonderful!

     

    The concierge lounge is open 24 hours. You can get coffee, tea, hot cocoa. From 5-8:30 PM there is basically a full bar you can choose from. You can also get cans of soda. They usually have some hot appetizers, fruit, cheeses, veggies, etc.

     

    If you don't feel like going to the dining room for dinner, you have access to the full menu in your cabin.

     

    The room is great!!! Enjoy yourself!

     

    Were these all inclusive? Did you buy any drinks packages on top and do you think that they were good value/needed?
