Cheap water question

[thechunman]

New to Celebrity so pardon me for the dumb question.

 

I don't drink alcohol and have given up on all sugary drinks. I just need plain water to survive. If I refuse to pay for bottle water, am I going to die of thirst on a Celebrity boat? Do they serve tap water in the dining room? Just seems like every post that talks about drinks involved bottle water.

 

Thanks for your help.

Yes, you can have tap water in the dining room. It is available at the buffet and by the pool too at no charge with ice. the tap water in your room can be drank also, have your room steward leave you a bucket of ice when he makes up and turns down your room.

Cheers, h.

They do serve tap water in the dining rooms. However, you can bring your own bottled water without charge.

Yes, they do serve tap water at the restaurants. The tap water on board ship is very safe to drink. We drink the tap water, as do most people on the cruises.

 

The ships have desalinization plants that provide water that generally doesn't have a bad taste.

I am a big water drinker, and always drink the tap water. I'm still here;)

Water on a ship meets a higher standard than any you can buy. The self-serve dispensers in the buffets, and the water served at meals in the dining room are pure and excellent. Tap water in your cabin bathroom is fine, as well, but it is usually not as cold as you might get at home. You can add ice, provided in your cabin, to chill it. There is no reason to use bottled water.

Wow thanks for all the quick replies. Nice to know we are not forced to buy water for survival. I can safely reallocate my water funds for other recreational activities..wink wink...

 

Thanks again!

I bring a case of water (small 12oz.) with me. If you put a luggage tag on it when you check your luggage it will be delivered to your cabin.

Hmmm, I thought Celebrity website said no water to be bought on board?

Have always drank the tap water on board. From the tap, dispensers, from the ice, in their coffee both the free stuff and the coffee in the coffee shop, in the iced tea, and etc

 

Consumed it in their soup, baked goods, ice cream, gelato, juices and etc. Those that claim it isn't any good and wouldn't drink it would starve on board.

 

You can fill up a container using a dispenser but they want you to fill it using a glass instead of filling directly from the dispenser for sanitary reason.

 

Have even showered with it.

 

It has to meet safe water drinking standards and probalby exceeds it.

We also drink the free water on the ship and it tastes fine to us.

I don't think that I could even tell the difference between it and bottled water in a blind taste test.

 

Until recently, Celebrity would routinely place a pitcher of drinking water and an ice bucket in all the cabins, and they were refilled twice each day .

 

On our most recent cruises, however, we were informed that they are now provided upon request.

 

So just ask your stateroom attendant for the water pitcher and ice bucket and you will be fine.

There should be clean drinking glasses provided with them as well.

 

Free cold drinking water is also still available in the dining room and at the buffet and at all restaurants and bars.

HI- no problem with water and soft drinks-just tag cases of water and 12 packs of soft drinks cans with extra luggage tags and they will be delivered to the cabin with the luggage.

No, you can buy all the water you want on board. In fact, Celebrity would just love it if you did! :D
