Glass House and Carmen's on Aurora

Recommended Posts

We are looking at cabins for Aurora which are to be installed in the area now used for the children's facilities.  I realise that most of those cabins are over Carmen's, is it the late night disco venue, and if so, how late?  Otherwise what time does entertainment in Carmen's generally finish?

 

A few of those cabins are a bit further forward, near the Glass House, which appears to be a food/bar area.  What time does that restaurant/bar close and is music played there, or is it a quiet venue (It looks like there is a central staircase down to the casino, so a bit concerned it could be a late night bar)?

 

Any help greatly appreciated.

The late night disco (if you can call it that) is in Masquerade and I believe can go on to the early hours.

Carmens is used for shows or ballroom dancing and finishes between 11 and midnight in our experience.

The Glasshouse is indeed a quiet place and could do with a bit of life injected into it.

 

I've never found Aurora to be  a noisy ship but have only ever been on her out of school holidays. This year (July) there were plenty of GCE and A level finishers on board but all well behaved. Next year of course most of them will be too young anyway.

Thanks for the reply Brayman.

 

We quite like the quieter bar/food venues, but also will be in the disco when the mood takes us 🙂

 

I have just searched the P&O site to see when teenagers are considered to be adults and therefore welcome on the child free ships, but cannot find anything.  Many holiday companies consider 16 to be adult, which would mean virtually all GCE or A level finishers would still be able to be taken on the ship, although no teen facilities for the under 18's as now.  As per your experience I would not expect that to be a problem though.

As far as P&O are concerned 18 is Adult.  On Arcadia or Oriana I have never seen any teens. In fact on many of our Ventura cruises they are missing as well.
