NCL Escape Haven Benefits

[Hotspring]

We are staying in a Spa Haven cabin this June.

 

We are trying to determine if we will receive fresh flowers and a daily bottled water supply.

 

Also trying to ascertain if we can request the mini-bar be emptied prior to our arrival so that we know everything in the refrig is free. Besides, we have ended up with the unlimited drink package---but it appears it is just for booze rather than healthy bottled water.

 

The web is full of potentially old and conflicting information. Any recent cruisers that enjoyed the Escape's Haven know what the current benefits are?

The place for all of the NCL info you will ever need is the portion of Cruise Critic devoted to NCL, located here:

Remember, Cruise Critic is part of that "potentially old and conflicting" Web. Trust but verify.

The beverage package does not cover water, however the water onboard is purified in the same way that most bottled water is and is actually significantly cleaner than the water in most US cities, so you might consider refilling the water bottle from the tap. Another option would be to bring a Brita water filter system of some type.

You can no longer bring bottled water onboard (or cokes or anything other than wine.)

 

To have your refrigerator emptied, email your request here:

(take out the space) They may or may not do it - hard to guess. I find that asking the butler onboard is usually the better option. The butler will bring pitchers of water if you want or especially stock only bottled water if you prefer.
