DeanoNorthPerth Posted February 11, 2016 #3 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Is the bottled water and soft drinks in the stateroom cabin complimentary? Thanks. Mine was very complimentary. Every time I opened the bottle it told me how handsome I am.:):):) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMBobB Posted February 11, 2016 #4 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Oh I certainly hope so since the only water fountain/dispensers I've ever seen are up in the spa area and in Terrace Cafe -but the food service staff prefer to bring it to your table for sanitary reasons. Oh, and there is bottled water in both concierge and executive lounge coolers on O ships and always on your cabin cabinet tops. Yes water in all forms is included in your fare payment. So not entirely free but it is readily available sans extra cost. JMBobB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iamthesea Posted February 11, 2016 #5 Share Posted February 11, 2016 (edited) Leaving today for Miami! Since we have the all day alcoholic beverage package, does that mean we can "help ourselves" to the alcohol inside the stateroom fridge, or so we still need to call room service if we prefer a drink in the room? Or we could go get one ourselves from a bar. We are not interested in bringing onboard our own liquor. ;) Edited February 11, 2016 by Iamthesea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tarpeian Rock Posted February 11, 2016 #10 Share Posted February 11, 2016 On our Marina cruise last month, I also noticed that there was a fridge with bottles of water in the laundry room. Hadn't noticed that on our prior O cruises, although maybe they were there also. Nice touch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And....in your fridge there are only soft drinks... no booze unless your in a top suite, and its 6 full bottles ( ltrs) you choice.... Go up to the bar much faster than room service and order tripples, no mixer and then make your own drink Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pthjudy Posted February 11, 2016 #16 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Is the bottled water and soft drinks in the stateroom cabin complimentary? Thanks. I can't remember how we request particular soft drinks to be stocked in our refrigerator. And I know somewhere there is a list of available ones. Can someone help us out? I assume I can get diet Sprite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RetiredFL Posted February 11, 2016 #17 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Availability of soft drinks depends on the departure port although Oceania has a good record of finding what you want. Your travel agent should put in a request before you sail and the fridge should be stocked. Diet Sprite should not be a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

securitypaperman Posted February 15, 2016 #21 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Feb 2 we finished a fantastic cruise on the Riveria. This was a cruise where for us "everything" came together perfectly ! Re: drinks. We asked the fellow who made up our room. We asked if he could keep the fridge filled with Sprite Zero, Diet Coke and water. It was filled the entire cruise along with ice in the ice bucket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newbie60 Posted February 16, 2016 #22 Share Posted February 16, 2016 When we first started cruising, two large bottles of Evian still water were provided in the cabins and of course, replenished regularly. In recent years, the large bottles of water provided in the cabins have been mineral water. DH doesn't like mineral water so we always request regular bottles of water instead. Our butler (or cabin steward in one case) has been able to replace them BUT they have had to get them from the Concierge Lounge or even the storage area for water bottles that are handed out at the gangway for going ashore.

In recent years, the large bottles of water provided in the cabins have been mineral water What is the difference in the water in the blue bottle in the cabin & the ones you get when exiting the ship?? Not sure I noticed mineral water I do not care for Evian so never used those bottles in the cabin & there was also a charge in the early years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
