Upcoming Seashore YC question...

[pappahbuttz]

   Just thought of a couple of things and thought I would throw out a couple of question. I am sailing Back2Back Seashore Yacht Club dep 6th November 2022. Since the mini bar is no longer included. but they give us a choice of a bottle of whatever, do they still give us the welcome bottle of prosecco as well, and also when I sailed on the Meraviglia they had an area in the theatre at the top right for YC guests, do they have such a thing on the Seashore? Thanks in advance :)

I am off Seashore YC 15 October and did the 14 days.  Yes, we got a bottle of Prosecco as well a bottle of liquor.  I actually got two.  I am not sure I was supposed to but now DH has a bottle of Jack Daniels so he is happy.  🙂

 

Yes, they have the top right area reserved for YC.  It is opened up a few minutes before the show starts though so it will fill in, often during the show which can be distracting.

I would double check what is and what is not included in the mini bar. On our sailing Oct 8 to 15 2022 everything in the mini bar was included and would be restocked daily, except the Pringles, jar of nuts and Toberone chocolate which were complimentary just one time. One could always purchase these items in the liquor shop on board and more variety as well.

We recently were in the YC and yes, our bottle of sparkling stuff was waiting in our suite.  Our Butler asked us what bottle (we only got one) we wanted for our bar but the options were very limited.  I asked for Scotch....but told no.  Asked for Cognac and told no.  Was told I could choose between some brand of Vodka, Gin or Jack Daniels.  None of that was of interest and I told our Butler no biggie since we generally prefer to get our drinks in the lounge.  But he was pretty insistent, pointing out that we could do what most folks do and just take the unopened bottle home.  So now, I have an unopened bottle of Jack in my bar where it will likely remain unopened since we tend to drink other brands.

 

As Morpheus says, they have a few rows of the theater (enter at the top right) reserved for the YC and, on our cruise, there were always plenty of seats.  Our Butler insisted on taking us the first night, but after that we simply went on our own.  I should add that we were very pleased (as usual) with everything and everyone in the YC.  The YC Director (Hugh) gets very high marks for helping us with an issue.  As always, the YC staff goes above and beyond 🙂

'Be careful what you wish for' happened to us once. It was for the much loved Michael Jackson Tribute performance. I got this great idea to get front row seats in the Theatre. However we are no longer quick enough to get down the aisle to get those coveted seats when there are families on board. The children rush past us and save these seats for their most often tardy family. So the evening before we were escorted to the usual Yacht Club section in the theatre by our assigned butler. I walked with him that evening and pointed out these front row seats (occupied that evening by these children) for tomorrow's performance of M.J.Tribute show. We said to him we will get here as early as you tell us to but we want these seats. He escorted us to the theatre the following evening right up to the front row and told the children occupying the seats that these seats are reserved and they had to move. He did what we requested. We were so close to the speakers that we will never ask for front row seats ever again. The sound was deafening. YC section from now on.

The contents of the minibar were included in our YC suite back in September.
