mostlylurker Posted July 13, 2015 #26 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Chocolate buffets are now gone. In its stead they have a "chocolate night" where the restaurants offer special chocolate desserts. Though I always found their chocolate buffet display beautiful never really cared for the taste of their offerings, they all were bland and all tasted pretty much the same, in my opinion of course so not really a major loss in my view, lol. thanks for the reply. Our first cruise was the last sail of the dream and we had no idea what to expect. loved the buffet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4gomez Posted July 13, 2015 #28 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Sorry guys; I'm doing what my wife accuses me of. In other words can you get different spa packages within the day package you purchased? (at no additional cost)Or if not what does the day package include which I can't take advantage at, at no cost? I know on most ncl ships that are spa amenities that everyone can enjoy.

The exercise room/gym in the spa area can be used by all for no fee. Special classes, cycling, yoga, etc. come with a charge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it just a hot tub and some chairs/loungers or what? We are on the Gem in October and considering it. Okay, I'm considering it-----dh has no clue it even exists.

whenisthemidnightbuffet? Posted August 17, 2015 Author #36 Share Posted August 17, 2015 I personally am not a fan of "spas" in general. I find them a bit boring to spend any great amount of time just lounging around. However, the heated tile lounge chair would be an amazing place on a cool sea day to camp out on and read that engaging book. Many people just love the serenity and the relaxation offered by the spa and find the weekly pass one of the best things to purchase. On the other hand, I just love running around the ship and doing "ship" things and when I get beat an afternoon nap back in the cabin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
