Can't say for sure - because we have not sailed the Sunshine. But we've never sailed on a ship that hasn't - and it certainly did when it was the Destiny! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

happy cruzin Posted January 26, 2014 #4 Share Posted January 26, 2014 I was in a forward cabin on the Lido deck on the Sunshine. No mail box. Wow.....REALLY??!?!?! So they took them all down??

I haven't seen mailboxes on the smaller ships. The last ship I saw with mailboxes was on the Conquest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
golfadj Posted January 26, 2014 #7 Share Posted January 26, 2014 Never been on a cruise ship without mailboxes but than again Sunshine has no night tables or fridges so perhaps someone decided they were nt necessary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tommytune42 Posted January 26, 2014 #9 Share Posted January 26, 2014 It depends upon the level. Some levels have mailboxes and some do not. Same with refrigerators and nightstands. We were on deck 12--had a refrigerator and nightstands but no mailbox. The lower decks (9 and below) all had mailboxes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd think having - or not having - something like a mailbox would be ship wide. :/ Sent from my phone - using the Cruise Critic forums app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think a mailbox is a perk for balcony or suite cabins. I had an inside cabin on Lido on the Sunshine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruizinisthebest Posted January 26, 2014 #15 Share Posted January 26, 2014 I've never been on a ship WITH them. Can't see why they are needed. I would rather something pertaining to my s&s account or otherwise be slipped under the door anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gailerina Posted January 26, 2014 #16 Share Posted January 26, 2014 I've seen them on the pride. Normally on the side next to the door. Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleJeanne Posted January 26, 2014 #17 Share Posted January 26, 2014 Does anyone know if there are mailboxes outside the rooms? They had them on the Dream. We will be in the aft section on Deck 6. I'm just of the Sunshine 1/12-19. I participated in our roll calls door decorating contest and was one of the groups judges for the door decorating contest, so I wondered all the halls of rooms checking out the door décor. I can't say whether the area you are asking about has them or not. However, I do remember us commenting at one point that there seemed to be no real rhyme or reason to which rooms had the "mailboxes" by the door and which didn't. My room was on 2 we chose to stay across the hall from our daughter's family and they wanted an ov. None of the rooms on our floor had a mailbox outside the door. However, as we went higher on the ship it did seem like more of the rooms had them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarapdot Posted January 26, 2014 #18 Share Posted January 26, 2014 I sailed her 01/05/2014, we were on deck 2 with an oceanview room. There were no mailboxes on our entire hall. We did a cabin crawl too and the only mailbox I remember seeing was on the spa level cabins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winddawn Posted January 26, 2014 #21 Share Posted January 26, 2014 Does anyone know if there are mailboxes outside the rooms? They had them on the Dream. We will be in the aft section on Deck 6. Some decks have them on Sunshine, but not all. I remember none on deck 1, but I did see them at the spa cabins forward of the Serenity area.

Twinswithtwins Posted January 26, 2014 #22 Share Posted January 26, 2014 Was on Sunshine last week- Balcony cabin 7266. No mailbox- but walked thru Spa level to get to Serenity- noticed they had mailboxes. Paperwork was slid under the door on the last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuddrules Posted January 26, 2014 #23 Share Posted January 26, 2014 (edited) We had 3 cabins on deck 6 aft on Sunshine and I don't recall a mailbox. But I wasn't looking, it has 0.0 percent on my cruise so I may overlook something like that. My mailman was over 1000 miles away anyway so I'm not sure he'd make the delivery if I had one. Yes to nightstand No to fridge in most the Sunshine rooms and they aren't on deck 6 aft. But that's another item I go without. They are on the Dream and we never had it unlocked (had a minor in the room). I didn't need it and they aren't cold anyway.

sailingwithfriends Posted January 27, 2014 Author #24 Share Posted January 27, 2014 I agree with the posters that said they would not want information from the ship placed in the mailboxes. I originally asked that question because I would like to be able to leave information for the group I am traveling with inside the mailbox. We have 14 rooms booked in the same section of the ship. It would be nice if we had a central location to leave information for our group. Since there doesn't seem to be mailboxes, I'll come up with another plan. Thanks for all of you that replied and answered my original question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
near the beach Posted January 27, 2014 #25 Share Posted January 27, 2014 I don’t mind not having any mail boxes. Papers can be slid under the door without a problem. Or the cabin steward can put them on our bed. Post it notes work well for leaving messages for others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
