Rag2 Posted February 7 #1251 Share Posted February 7 Has anyone been on NCL Dawn recently? I’m wondering if the Men’s sauna and steamrooms are operational again in the Thermal Spa Suite. Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These ships apparently have a thermal suite, which is only available for a fee and usually includes mixed-sex steam and sauna facilities, heated lounges, and specialty showers.

So no single sex and no free facilities. I was afraid of that but thanks for the information anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billybeachboy Posted February 11 #1255 Share Posted February 11 Just off P&O Ventura today & sad to report that all the sauna/steam (inc. Thermal Suite) facilities were closed, the excuse given was that users were unable to be socially distanced in the facilitiies. Utter rubbish as everyone can be as close as they like in the bar areas! The closure took the shine off my brief trip. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TigerHorse6290 Posted February 12 #1256 Share Posted February 12 Thanks billybeachboy for sharing the news. It's really disappointing. I booked a cruise withe P&O Ventura for 18th March. Hope they would have no excuse not to open the sauna/steam by then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexasCruiseDude Posted February 19 #1257 Share Posted February 19 Just sailed on Royal Caribbean Mariner of the Seas: Separate men's steam/sauna in the locker room are still there - but closed due to COVID! Good news is they have given the locker room a minor update, including new shower fixtures. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexdw Posted February 27 #1258 Share Posted February 27 On HAL Nieuw Statendam now. This is the free sauna which has great large windows and is very under used, don't think people know it is here.20220227_181943.heic 20220227_175354_09.mp4 20220227_175424.heic 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

willcan Posted February 28 #1262 Share Posted February 28 Currently on board Odyssey of the seas. Sorry to report there are no free facilities at all on this ship. Not even a change room in the gym. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twodjs Posted February 28 #1263 Share Posted February 28 The other ships in Holland America's Pinnacle Class, Koningsdam and Rotterdam also have the same free single-sex huge window sauna design. The space is never promoted since they want to sell their co-ed spa packages. A great find! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShipWalker Posted March 1 #1264 Share Posted March 1 (edited) Updated the database with Alexdw Nieuw Statendam photo. Cruise Ship Steam/Sauna Database Take note of the categories if making a report here or on the other thread. Taking photos is a great addition to the database, too. Every little bit helps.

ouse456 Posted March 9 #1266 Share Posted March 9 (edited) Any word about whether Royal Caribbean has opened up steam and shower for use yet? (-on the ships that offer them in locker rooms, I mean.) Edited March 9 by ouse456 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the ship was mask free for vaccinated passengers. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birmingham Cruisers Posted March 18 #1269 Share Posted March 18 Hi Guys, does anyone have experience of Azamara set up? We haven't cruised with them up to yet but are considering a cruise on "Onward" Do any of their ships have separate mens and women saunas or steam rooms?

They only have a steam room in the Ladies and Gents locker rooms I suppose that Onward will have the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The steam room is, I would say, not small and would easily accommodate 8 people. It is an Otogon shape . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m wondering if the Men’s sauna and steamrooms are operational again in the Thermal Spa Suite. Thanks in advance! I just got off the Dawn. Everything is working. But it was sparsely attended. I did have a complaint. A female staff would come in about every hour to check the temp on the steam and sauna. Sometimes she would announce herself and sometimes not. I was caught quite naked several times. That should not be allowed. They would NEVER allow a male attendant to walk into the ladies room. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
