Oasis class ships do not have any other bars near them. I get the OP is discussing a different class ship but I don’t want unfamiliar cruisers thinking this is the same across all ships. She specifically asked about liberty which I've done quite a few times. I was answering the OPs question rather than some generic answer. See OP is on liberty. ... " From the deck plans, VCL is in between the Suite Lounge and Diamond Club on Liberty. So does that mean we can get full drinks from the Suite Lounge?" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thread title of Suite Lounge can be misconstrued if people think all class ships are the same. The title was not ship specific, until post 7. I was just trying to clarify the difference between ships. Edited November 30, 2022 by Spurschick 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SG65CB Posted November 30, 2022 #28 Share Posted November 30, 2022 You can also go back to the suite lounge after dinner, have another drink, and carry one with you to the evening show. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oohh...nice idea! OP here. Yes, in our case I was asking specifically about Liberty. Guess my title was generic as didn't realize that it varied among the ships. Appreciate the responses.

Rare BecciBoo Posted December 4, 2022 #38 Share Posted December 4, 2022 Now I have a question, can't find the answer to. In Diamond lounge, each drink counts toward your voucher, right? But in Suite Lounge, are you limited? Or could you have 2 or three drinks before dinner and then later on use the drinks on your Diamond Plus voucher elsewhere? Trying specifically to decide if Royal Up is really worth the bid up to Grand Suite. All I figure you get is Suite Lounge access and Coastal Kitchen, right??

My honest recommendation --- order what you want and they will tell you if it is not available. Give them the opportunity to say no is my approach shipboard. Spot on, we were on Wonder last week and more than once I heard the SL bartender send somebody to get a mixer, alcohol, or ingredient from another part of the ship. It was a little funny to hear her try to explain to a porter what Angry Orchard was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Free drinks, no vouchers, in SL from 5-8pm if I recall correctly. Lots of DIA & PINS at the bar and lounge until the "witching hour" then they all clear out. We tried not to go in SL until 7:30 PM and eat after 8:00 PM after it got quite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The SL bartender sent the porters to other parts of the ship more than once for alcohol and/or ingredients she didn't have. The Sun Deck bar is only up one deck from SL. I can't recall how late it's open but we were having a cocktail there and watching the aqua theater show around 10:00 PM one night when he made "last call." It was a great location in the evening as nobody seemed to be there after dark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of our favorite perks is free in suite dining from the MDR menu. If you are on an Oasis class ship, the bar in the lounge is usually open from 11AM-11PM for whatever drinks you want.

Our experience on both Allure and Harmony has been the ability to order whatever we wanted from the suite bar as suite guests (except for frozen drinks - those two didn't have a blender). Have not sailed on Oasis since 2017, so I really don't remember much from that ship. We haven't sailed on any Quantum class ships yet, so no suite lounge experience from that class, and we don't sail on Wonder until January, so no experience there either.

The Oasis class is different than the Quantum class. We sailed on Quantum this past August and September and drinks were served only during happy hour in the suite lounge. It was a full drink service -- enjoyed everything from my wife's Tanqueray 10 and Cranberry to my long island ice teas. Guess I'll find out for sure when we sail on Harmony in February. Hoping you are correct and I'd much prefer a mid-day Kettle One and diet tonic than a cold beer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George C Posted December 5, 2022 #50 Share Posted December 5, 2022 I don’t think I ever left suite lounge without a fresh drink in my hand , agree during happy hour normally between 5 and 8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
