So, we were last on Vision, and I was surprised at how small the actual locker are was and how much wasted space there was in the men's sauna/steam room area, especially the weird open shower thing off to the side. Our next cruise is on Serenade, which is the same class as Brilliance. I'm curious what the setup is like (hopefully they are similar). Can you describe the layout on Brilliance?

Hi

Just seen this

Think your question has been answered . The Brilliance steam / sauna area looks like it could do with a update , but at least its free , Good sized steam room circular , very dim lighting , the sauna was decent size , very bright lighting , the showers are in groups of 2 u turn left or right when u enter , but no curtains .

It got quite busy towards end of cruise :D

ps ..we r back on Vision in Oct

Just got on PO Azura . There's a free separate steam and sauna area . Looks very nice . Will try it in a bit 😉

Anyone been on a RCI ship RECENTLY other than Freedom, Allure, or Oasis? Are the sauna/steamroom still free?

I have done Brilliance and Vision recently , they where both free and male only , I thought Brilliance was a bit better set up

Hi

Just booking Britannia and Rhapsody of the sea do u guys know what the facilities are like on these ships re sauna steam room.?

Just done Brilliance of the sea , still has a free guys only are for steam :) and sauna + a paid thermal suite area for couples

Great ..thanks guys . I was just checking it was a upgrade 😀

Hi

Today we have been contacted by PO to say we have had a up grade from ROOM B615 which has a balcony on deck B

Too

C427 Overlooked Balcony..

I guessing this is a bigger balcony Classed as a HA

does anyone know if this is a good move and is the room any better too?

Thanks

Ha. Thanks . Sounds good. . 😀

Hi

I'm going a few cruises over the next few months . Doing Brilliance . Azure and freedom ..w what are the like ? Also are they free and non co sauna / steamrooms like are they non coe ed please ? 😀

I would like to know what the facilities are like on either of these ships. I have not been on Costa in years and the last was the Atlantica when she was new. Are the facilities on Luminosa and or Deliziosa coed? Are there steam and dry sauna? Are they open to the general passenger or only through the purchase of a spa weekly pass?

While I'm asking......any info on the Diadema?

Thanks

Hi

There was a nice spa area on Diadema , it's coed , there is a male changing room with showers , there was a small charge for using it

Lovely ship , we had one of the best balconies we have ever had

breakfast was not to our liking tho, all continental no hot

Please feel free to ask if u need any more info

Tony

☺☺☺

Yes that's true . We are going on Freedom in Feb 16 . I guess that's still the same set up as IOTS use to be ?

Oasis and Allure . They charge . Deff charge. The msc and Costa had areas that charge too

Its mainly the older rccl that are free ☺

Around 4pm is quite busy

I sometimes go in the morning first thing ☺

The sauna in the men's changing area is very small, the women's is much larger!

 

The area was ok, but we preferred the set up on the Jade.

Thanks also for that

I liked Jade set up too

Nice big Jacuzzi :):)

Will update when I return:rolleyes:

Hey Tony, I'm doing my first-ever P&O cruise in December, so I can't offer any help with Azura. But I've been on Epic twice.

 

Epic had the largest spa at sea when it was built, and I recommend purchasing the spa pass or getting a day pass at least. There's a men-only wet area with steam room, sauna, personal hot tub, personal ice-cold plunge pool (if things get too hot), and rain forest showers. The coed area has ceramic loungers, a large thalassotherapy pool, plus hot tub and relaxation area.

 

Epic also has a separate locker room for gym users that has its own showers. If my memory is correct, there's a steam room and sauna, too.

 

Have fun.

Thanks for all that

I will sure be checking it out

got 10 days on her ,,so will have a bit of chill / me time

I guess I will have to see how many use it when I get on

Leaving from Barcelona :)

Hi

Going on NCL Epic soon and Azura a bit later on this year could anyone tell me about the sauna stream room set up ?:)

Thanks

Tony

HI

Ha thanks for that

Hi

Any one recently been on Brilliance of the sea to know if the Men's Sauna / steam room is still free and in the men's changing rooms ?
