I guess they must be popular if they raised the price it was only $295 pp in April Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, but I can’t get photos of any other suites. I can tell you that our Vista Suite doesn’t look any different than it did when we were in this same suite in February..

DeeniEncinitas Posted June 1, 2019 #56 Share Posted June 1, 2019 I got on Facebook and I like the colors of penthouse will be in! I like the carpet tones and glad the greens previously are gone with the lighter tones. Denise😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are the ones with the uncomfortable odd angled chairs and table at the foot of the bed. Sure wish they would have swapped them out for real chairs and table. Nevertheless it's a great stateroom.

Does a VAT come into play here? We'll be boarding in Barcelona next week and VAT will apply to the entire cruise as we stay in Spanish waters for the 10 days.

aquidneck1 Posted June 2, 2019 #61 Share Posted June 2, 2019 Yes, gratuity is added when you go to actually make the reservation. Just did so for a cruise in December 2019. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Denise😊 Glad you like it...looking at what they are doing to the R ships it is awful... turning a classy ambiance into Best Western chic... Blah Blah and more Blah.... all the charm of an airline lounge...... to me very sad loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes but I think that is only if you have the higher level beverage package. It does not apply to the wine/beer with meals package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From our perspective we are 4star mariners with HAL and have been with them a long time, and we stay in Neptune suites that are old style and ambiance equivalent to your PH. No comparison and we enjoy the style of Oceania. That said will be going on a month cruise on Koningsdam that came out in 2016 with a different decor so will see. I’m more excited with everything that Oceania is that HAL isn’t. Only nine months to go to experience our 2cruise with Riviera! Denise😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Denise😊 The problem with HAL is that it is thousands more than Oceania, their silly gala's monster ships... ( by my standards any med to me is under 700 large is under 1200, mega is 1900+) I have no idea what a neptune suite is.... The PH on O ships except for the R class is such a poor design... I do not see why people rave. At least they dont have Lawns and gardens on them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
