Aloha 1 Posted May 30, 2016 #4 Share Posted May 30, 2016 Do elite's in suite's get 2 mini-bar set-ups? Am elite and will have a full suite on next cruise. And to this point, if 2 Elites are in the same full suite, do they get a total of 4 mini bar setups? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beg3yrs Posted May 30, 2016 #5 Share Posted May 30, 2016 Do elite's in suite's get 2 mini-bar set-ups? Am elite and will have a full suite on next cruise. Yes, two setups. And to this point, if 2 Elites are in the same full suite, do they get a total of 4 mini bar setups? No, 2 Elites in a regular cabin only get one setup. That extends to full suites. You get a maximum of one regardless of the number of Elites above one and one for being in a full suite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare gotta cruise again Posted May 30, 2016 #6 Share Posted May 30, 2016 Thank you for the info, beg3yrs...much appreciated! Now we'll keep most of 1 set-up and swap the other for bottled water, now that bottled water seems to no longer be a suite benefit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2003Soccer17 Posted May 31, 2016 #7 Share Posted May 31, 2016 When you say coffee card, does that include the card for 15 coffees? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cflutist Posted May 31, 2016 #8 Share Posted May 31, 2016 When you say coffee card, does that include the card for 15 coffees? Yes, you can swap the entire minibar for two coffee cards, good for 15 espresso drinks (hot or cold), unlimited brewed coffee. They have decaf and soymilk available too.

ar1950 Posted May 31, 2016 #9 Share Posted May 31, 2016 (edited) Thank you for the info, beg3yrs...much appreciated! Now we'll keep most of 1 set-up and swap the other for bottled water, now that bottled water seems to no longer be a suite benefit. If you do the bottled water in advance you can get a lot of water for the mini-bar value. Bottled Water Package $6.90 for 12 (500 ml) bottles Stay hydrated and refreshed throughout your cruise with 12 (500 ml) bottles of water conveniently delivered to your stateroom. Price includes service charge. For pre-purchase ONLY through Gift Guide or Cruise Personalizer I would consider buying the water in advance and trading out the minibar setup for a coffee card (or something else..:confused:). Just a thought. In our experience water is more costly when purchased on board instead of in advance. BTW, those 500 ml water bottles are priced at $2.00 per bottle on the minibar re-stock menu vs $0.58 per bottle with the pre-cruise order cost.

I believe that was an originally advertised and then dropped benefit with the Club Class announcement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ar1950 Posted May 31, 2016 #12 Share Posted May 31, 2016 (edited) Wow- those are some really bottom-of-the-barrel wines! Ya, well, the minibar mini liqueur bottles are not exactly a top shelve value (nor are the other minibar components). We still enjoy and appreciate them. Just sayin'.

EllenSunny1 Posted January 9, 2018 #15 Share Posted January 9, 2018 I wonder if it’s possible to swap the liquor portion for one coffee card. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare geoherb Posted January 9, 2018 #16 Share Posted January 9, 2018 I wonder if it’s possible to swap the liquor portion for one coffee card.Not supposed to be able to do so. It's all of the minibar for two coffee cards. You can swap any of the alcoholic beverages for nonalcoholic ones. You can also swap the nonalcoholic ones for any canned soft drinks that room service has. DH likes ginger ale, so we get six cans of it. Now that neither of us drinks beer, we swap it for Perrier. As far as water in suites (from the older part of this thread), we received two additional bottles of water every day in our suite last month on the Royal.
