Amagamma Posted October 21, 2014 #26 Share Posted October 21, 2014 We always laugh when we see someone parading around the pool in their robe. Robes are for cabin use only, there should be a sign somewhere, lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dz9yvr Posted October 21, 2014 #28 Share Posted October 21, 2014 You're serious. You really do wear a robe around the ship? I thought that you were joking. I personally think that a robe should only be worn in your cabin, not in public. Absolutely I'm serious. As long as you keep it tied securely, it should not be a problem. Some people are comfortable wearing the robe to and from the spa, but with time you can become comfortable wearing anywhere around the ship. I always enjoy breakfast in the WJ in my robe.

Robes are for cabin use only, there should be a sign somewhere, lol I agree, and it's not something I have seen often, but to be fair to the people who do wear them around the ship, I think perhaps they don't realise that it's not what they are intended for. We once saw someone asked to leave the Concierge Lounge because they were wearing their bathrobe. They were very embarrassed because everyone stared, and I felt sorry for them. Perhaps there SHOULD be sign asking people not to leave their rooms wearing bathrobes, to spare the humiliation! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grand isle joe Posted October 21, 2014 #31 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Cruise Tip #67.....Always pack a used hospital gown that can double as a bath robe. Just remember to tie it in back otherwise it can be quite embarrassing as you saunter around the ship.;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, it is a warm, modest garment that I do not have to pack and will be used. Go to a high-end spa - many people there spend a lot of of the day in robes very similar to those on ships; in dining rooms, lounges, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PerferWarmWeather Posted October 21, 2014 #33 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Personally I don't see a problem with folks wearing robes to pools or around the ship. When you look at what some wear to dinner that would be more concerning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilson2579 Posted October 21, 2014 Author #34 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Is this a wind up!!!!!:eek::eek: Do people honestly wander around the ships with robes.:confused: I have sailed around 10 times but have never experienced this but we are all different.

No need to keep it tied, just be sure you have pajamas on underneath - makes a fashion statement. I once saw a woman go to breakfast in pajamas, guess what cruise line!

Can you imagine someone walking around a nice hotel in a bathrobe? Yeah, meant for the room and balcony only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe, I better keep mine tied. I usually don't wear anything more than a banana hammock. I concerned that may embarrass some people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
