callyrob Posted April 25, 2005 #1 Share Posted April 25, 2005 Is the tap water on the carnival ships safe to drink or should we use bottle water? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kay129 Posted April 25, 2005 #2 Share Posted April 25, 2005 It's safe to drink, and the water they had at dinner was fine, but I hated it when I poured some from the faucet into a cup. Bottled water is pretty expensive too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SailingDoug Posted April 25, 2005 #3 Share Posted April 25, 2005 They usually have two bottles of water in your room. The water on the ship is good to drink. The water is expensive, if you buy a shore, you will get a better price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare blackwing Posted April 25, 2005 #4 Share Posted April 25, 2005 There were no warning signs, so you can probably drink from the tap in your sink. I'd recommend going to the lido deck 9 and getting water from those dispensers, though. The water is fine. It tastes good. No metallic aftertaste, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mysticalblues Posted April 25, 2005 #5 Share Posted April 25, 2005 The water is safe to drink from the tap and tastes quite good. Pam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
my3kids Posted April 25, 2005 #6 Share Posted April 25, 2005 Hi I drank the water ALL week - no problems - it tastes fine - or you can always ask for a lemon or lime. And just my $.02 - I have a sensitive tummy - and had no problems whatsoever!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbatschke Posted April 25, 2005 #7 Share Posted April 25, 2005 DW and I took the 32oz insulated mugs that you can get just about anywhere (we picked ours up at Ron Jon's) and used it for ice water. Got the water, ice and lemon from the drink stations on the Lido deck (Glory.) We had at least one or two mugs of water a day and it tasted like normal, filtered bottled water to me. The tap water in the room was always luke warm and not very appealing to drink for anything other than taking vitamins or meds, but it was probably the same water source. They offer a 1.5 liter bottle of water in the room, but the price is $3.50 plus 15% gratuity. Better to fill up at the drink station IMHO.

GoinCruisin Posted April 25, 2005 #8 Share Posted April 25, 2005 The water on the ship is better and probably safer for you than most bottled water... the water undergoes a crazy filtration process, and is very good!!! The water from the tap isn't fabulous, but basically because it is not ice cold.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suseg Posted April 25, 2005 #9 Share Posted April 25, 2005 I also agree that the water is fine but from the tap, in the room, it is tepid so not appealing. We drink alot of water so we head up to the lido deck and get ice water for our jugs each day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WazAnOkie Posted April 26, 2005 #10 Share Posted April 26, 2005 The water on board is fine. We usually take a couple of bottled waters for the trip down, and just keep the bottles and refill them. The bottled water in the cabin is way overpriced, and the water from the ship is just as good or better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jckvpa0 Posted May 12, 2005 #12 Share Posted May 12, 2005 I thought the water smelled & tasted like chlorine. I drink alot of water & think it was worth it to buy it. I really did try to drink it for awhile but I could not get over the taste & smell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoray Posted May 12, 2005 #13 Share Posted May 12, 2005 Ship water is fine. But if you're concerned, get yourself a "BRITA SPORTSBOTTLE" at Wal*Mart. $6. (Or stay with the beer). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
