This thread is good for the most part, but people also post a lot of incorrect information. Someone on here posted it and I googled it and found they were removed for ADA compliance. I will be on the ship in 2 weeks and would be thrilled if the Info is wrong . I will report back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This thread is good for the most part, but people also post a lot of incorrect information. I agree that it is good for the most part.I was on the Emerald fairly recently and the deck plans on board were not even changed to reflect the removal of s/steam. I regularly check the deck plans on the Vacations To Go website and they hadn't been changed there either. On the VTG website they will sometimes give upcoming planned changes by giving a deck plan for up to a certain date and also giving the deck plan after that date. But for the Emerald that wasn't done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All other ships in that class have the same layout Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All other ships in that class have the same layout a locker room with 3 showers I'm not sure what the spa has. I didn't ask. As far as the other ships go, I don't know. I would guess that they would still be ok if they didn't have a recent refurbishment. The Emerald was moored in the Netherlands and was used to house Ukranian refugees. They made the changes after it stopped being used for the Ukranians. Edited February 22, 2023 by ouse456 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was last on Silhouette in 2021 & it had the male only sauna in the locker room then. I'm booked again in June so will be annoyed if has been taken away as the facility is important to my cruise. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sailed on her in July 2022 and they still had the free sauna. Sailing again in April so will soon see if they have changed it since then. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STLCRUISIN Posted March 2, 2023 #1636 Share Posted March 2, 2023 On Celebrity ships, when the refurbishments begin again sometime in the future, the saunas on the remaining M class ships will be moved from their current location starboard with the windows facing the sea to a sauna on the portside with a glass wall facing the locker room. The saunas on the S class ships will remain the same when refurbishments are made. Of course, that is the plan now but it's subject to change. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be on Summit in August and I know the sauna has been gutted. The M class ships had an awesome sauna with an incredible view. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll be on the Constellation in October/November so looking forward to the original sauna. Enjoy the Summit! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coldhendricksmartini Posted March 7, 2023 #1642 Share Posted March 7, 2023 Hi, I'm booked on the NCL Jade later this year. I hear there's a large hot tub in the male section of the thermal suite. Is it acceptable to go into the hot tub without a swim suit, or would that be weird? Feedback from anyone who's been on the Jade is appreciated. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twodjs Posted March 7, 2023 #1643 Share Posted March 7, 2023 Not wierd at all! Clothing optional on the men's side. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldhendricksmartini Posted March 7, 2023 #1644 Share Posted March 7, 2023 Thanks for your input. I'd prefer going without a swim suit, but don't want to deal with strange looks or make people feel uncomfortable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twodjs Posted March 7, 2023 #1645 Share Posted March 7, 2023 I understand. Some will wear suits, some a towel to the sauna, and some nude. Tends to be more going nude as the week progresses. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for that - obviously P&O going down the route of making the price of the holiday a basic no frills price and trying make the money back by charging for things like that. Shame, as like to do a bit in the gym followed by sauna and shower afterwards. I probably wouldn't have minded buying a package or paying a fair price per use on Arvia but can't justify paying £200-300 just to use the sauna for 20 mins a few times while we're away. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
