Rare cruzin4us Posted August 8, 2017 #1 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Do you think it's a good/smart idea to purchase the Thermal Spa package a Panama Canal cruise? Last time I went thru the canal it was so bloody hot, I couldn't imagine being anywhere hot. However, the thought of reclining and relaxing in the heated loungers sounds really appealing to me now.....but in 100 degree weather, I'm not so sure? Thoughts?

1884Vic Posted August 9, 2017 #2 Share Posted August 9, 2017 I love the thermal suite but I could not get cool on my Panama cruise. I love the heat and tolerate it well, but something about sitting on hot tiles or in warm, bubbling water was not appealing to me. That said, I have a large credit burning a hole in my pocket and am thinking about the suite on my upcoming partial canal cruise. I like the peacefulness in the suite.

tuolumne couple Posted August 9, 2017 #3 Share Posted August 9, 2017 we did, and it was always refreshing and relaxing. it was part of our routine and there are enough sea days . i dont know what ship you are on, but we always enjoy it, especially on the smaller ships. we go twice a day on sea days. good luck with your choice. if you book first day, there is usually an incentive and the packages do sell out.

Krazy Kruizers Posted August 9, 2017 #4 Share Posted August 9, 2017 Your hottest and most humid day will be day going through the entire canal. We constantly go in and out of the cabin to watch things but we do not spend hours outside like some people do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare 3rdGenCunarder Posted August 9, 2017 #5 Share Posted August 9, 2017 We bought the thermal suite pass on our partial canal on Zuiderdam and we used it a lot. The ship is air conditioned, so if you've been indoors for a while, the warmth should be pleasant. We go for the hydropool more than the heated loungers. I wouldn't bother with the thermal suite on the smaller ships that just have a hot tub, but I love that hydropool! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you answered my question....what's a few hundred more $'s at this point anyway ;p;p My DH thinks he's going to be bored after 16 days, so the more I find for him to do the better. Do you know if you can pay for this upfront or do I need to wait until after I board? Trying to get everything paid for in advance if I can.

It's one of the first things we do after boarding. We've never had a problem, but the passes are limited and may sell out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
