KCcruzor Posted March 14, 2022 #1 Share Posted March 14, 2022 Hello, My wife and I like to have bottled water with us to stay hydrated. I read something once about how you could have a certain amount delivered to your room. Does anyone have more details? Also, are you allowed to bring in any of your own? Thanks in advance!

firefly333 Posted March 14, 2022 #2 Share Posted March 14, 2022 Yes you can carry on a 12 pack I think. And yes for a nominal charge they will deliver some. Can pre purchase. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mz-s Posted March 14, 2022 #4 Share Posted March 14, 2022 Carnival has a great exhaustive page on what you can and cannot bring on the ship. Please read it as firefly333 is incorrect, you cannot bring on bottled water. Get the information straight from the horse's mouth. https://www.carnival.com/help The current price for bottled water delivered to your stateroom is $4.99 plus an 18% service charge (and sales tax if within US waters) for a 12-pack of 16.9oz bottles. Call room service when on board or order online before your voyage. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan If you've cruised Carnival before and have Gold/25 days in VIFP level, you'll each have 1 free big bottle, 1 1/2 liter free from any bar. Scan the QR code in your cabin for list of perks. add: easiest to buy a 12 pack. Can't bring plasti bottles onboard anymore. Each guest can bring 12 cans of soda or sparkling water.

Anyone who is a past guest can go to one of the bars on the ship and get a large format water bottle and the price will be waived on your sign and sail account.

Guess I was confused because the last time I glanced at the list, I knew Red didn't get much; no free drink nor pin. @KCcruzor you can pick up free big bottle of water at any bar for each guest that cruised Carnival before.

HarborHermit Posted March 14, 2022 #8 Share Posted March 14, 2022 Like others have said, you can't bring your own water in bottles, but you can buy a 12 pack of water from Carnival. That is what I did for my last two cruises, and it was waiting in my cabin on embarkation day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hogbay Posted March 14, 2022 #9 Share Posted March 14, 2022 You can drink it out of the tap too.😇 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare sparks1093 Posted March 14, 2022 #10 Share Posted March 14, 2022 (edited) To be clear if you can find water in a can you can bring on a limited quantity of that (12 cans) just as you can soda. Bottles are verboten except for wine (1 bottle per adult guest). We buy a 12 pack of water from Funshop in order to take them ashore with us for excursions.

Nothing really wrong with that water, but I don't think it goes through extra filtration like the ones in the water fountains around the ship. And as some will opine, it doesn't taste the same as water out of plastic bottles and certainly not the same as you drink at home. But $4.99 for a 12 pack is pretty inexpensive.

The water out of the bathroom taps is the same water as is served on Lido and anywhere else on the ship. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once we empty our very large complimentary bottles, I refill them from the tap and keep them in the fridge. Ship's water is actually really good - I believe they use a reverse osmosis system for water purification?? I can tell a difference in my skin and hair after a week of using it for sure. Wish our water at home was that good! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes even the bathroom tap, desalination by reverse osmosis creates perfect h2O you will have to add things to make it taste like plastic water or your towns water . Ships water supply also would be tested more frequently than the others . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhotoMike Posted March 14, 2022 #19 Share Posted March 14, 2022 Looks like the water bottles available for purchase is spring water. Not sure if that's an issue for most people, but I'm a water snob & spring water tastes like it has dirt in it to me..lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PittsburghGirlee Posted March 14, 2022 #20 Share Posted March 14, 2022 The case of water is nice to have for that "JUST IN CASE" happens....and for $5, I'm ok with it!!!! Not that I am putting the jinx on anyone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanyon71 Posted March 14, 2022 #21 Share Posted March 14, 2022 We just ordered 3 cases from the carnival site to be delivered to our room. The water onboard doesn't taste bad but there is still enough salt left from the process they use on the water that my wife and I tend to swell if we drink too much of it. We will still drink it at dinner and many other places but the $5 for a case is not a big deal so we always buy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ships water supply also would be tested more frequently than the others . So the last cruise I did on the Carnival Paradise in 2019, when I ran the water in our bathroom sink for very long (brushing my teeth, washing my hands, etc.) and it pooled some in the basin it had a definite green tint to it. Same for the water in the toilet. At first I thought maybe someone went and forgot to flush, but it would fill back up with a greenish water. I thought it was just our cabin - and I never got around to saying anything to our steward. We just started using our bottled water for our needs in the cabin. But after, I had several comment that they noticed the same thing in their cabins on our sailing. Not sure what was causing it - only cruise, out of 19, that I've seen that on. But if definitely gave me pause on drinking from our bathroom sink supply! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DPTexas Posted March 19, 2022 #24 Share Posted March 19, 2022 Pre-ordering the bottled water is one of the easiest things to do for yourself in preparation for a cruise. It's waiting for you when you get to your stateroom and the price is right, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was this in March 2019, around St. Patrick's Day? add: Note about the free big bottle of water for past guests, there is a QR code in cabins to scan for information on all the VIFP perks.
