Recent Cruisers - Robes

[bellebaby]

I know robes have been discussed before. However, is HAL still using the waffle robe with a liner?

 

I am going on the Volendam in May and much prefer the thick terrry robe for Alaska. If the lined waffle robe is still in use, I will bring my own.

 

Thanks for your help.

We sailed on the Volendam January 12 and the robes were the waffle type.

The lined waffle robes have been placed on the ships when the SOE programs have been completed.

 

I don't think any of the ship have the old terry cloth robes any more.

There was a waffle robe provided for use in my cabin on the Amsterdam, which I just got off of. The terry robes might be available for purchase, though ... I'm not sure. I received a certificate from my TA that I could have used to purchase the waffle robe if I had wanted to take it home, and I believe that certificate could also have been used to put toward the purchase of a terry robe if I had wanted one. I didn't want either, though, and just put the value of the certificate toward my onboard account.

Waffles on the Westerdam, too. Nov. 27 2005 sailing.

It sounds like I need to make room in my luggage for a robe.

 

Thanks for the information.

Okay, I am petite but I could have fit The Mormon Tabernacle Choir in with me!

Your post is funny. There is a recent thread posted by FATJACK stating the robes were too small!

 

They are usually just right for me size wise, I just like thick and fluffy in Alaska.
