cheeka Posted March 6, 2005 #1 Share Posted March 6, 2005 :o We are taking our first cruise at the end of March on the Serenade of the Seas. I've been reading this forum but have never seen this question addressed ...it's about the air conditioning on the ship. Considering it's only 5'C in my city right now, I feel almost foolish asking, but here goes... Are the cabins & interior kept noticeably cooler? Can we control the hot/cold air in our cabin? Last winter, our hotel suite in Puerto Vallarta was freezing! We turned off all air & fans & even put on long sweats & were still cold... I want to be prepared on this vacation ! Sweater? Shawl/wrap?

megr1125 Posted March 6, 2005 #2 Share Posted March 6, 2005 you can control the AC in your cabin. Actually when we were on AOS in Oct the control worked well....we also sometimes left the balcony door open. If you get cold....i would bring a sweater and maybe a wrap for the dining room. my mom is always cold and she never once complained about the temp. i am always hot....no prob for me either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serene56 Posted March 6, 2005 #3 Share Posted March 6, 2005 Public areas are always cooler then your cabin. Take a sweater. Sailed last month after leaving snow, wind and ice. Twas nice leaving all that to sweat my buns off laying on a beach getting a nice tan. Today--my tan has frostbite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Host Walt Posted March 6, 2005 #4 Share Posted March 6, 2005 Plan for cool atmospheres in the Dining Room and the Show Lounge. I would guess 19c (66f) or so. The heavy activity of the waitstaff and show people creates the need for low ambient temperatures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ineedacruise Posted March 7, 2005 #5 Share Posted March 7, 2005 I agree about how cool the DR and theater can be. I always bring a sweater along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trish1c Posted March 7, 2005 #6 Share Posted March 7, 2005 You can control the temp in your cabin. Public rooms aren't cool -- they are freezing. Bring a sweater. It can feel cool at night on deck as you sail at 15 knots -- very windy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toesockrock Posted March 9, 2005 #7 Share Posted March 9, 2005 I always got cold in the theatre. Not usually anywhere else. But a sweater/shawl is definitely recommended. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrighka Posted March 11, 2005 #8 Share Posted March 11, 2005 I was on the Serenade last February and let me tell ya, it was COLD!!!!!!! There I am on formal nights in the dining room wearing a hooded sweatshirt over my dress and even then I was still cold! Truthfully, I found it cold throughout the entire ship and turned the air OFF in my cabin. I was the ONLY one at my dining table tho, that was cold and I was uncomfrotably cold. So, BEWARE! If you are inclined to be chilly, be prepared to cover up! Kim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ubermann Posted March 13, 2005 #9 Share Posted March 13, 2005 Definitely chilly in the restaurant but I found the answer to the chill in the theater... get up on stage! It warms up very quickly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
