Mini bites is 1 deck different than the buffet. I think 16. Up the steps from the pool if you are on pool deck. If you have fixed time dining your deck and table number are printed on your card.

Rare bobmacliberty Posted August 25 #204 Share Posted August 25 Adding to the drink tips question...you probably know that a gratuity (18% I think?) is automatically added to both individual drinks and the drink package. Most people probably feel that's enough of a tip already. Tipping an additional $1 is a good way to get remembered for good future service and/or to further help your bartender/wait staff. I'm sure they DO appreciate, even if they seem surprised. Royal often has some great bartenders...I'm sure you will find your favorite within a day or 2. He or she will remember your additional tip. 😉 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poocher Posted August 25 #206 Share Posted August 25 Hubby suggested the Rum Runners on Rising Tide. DD liked the Lavender martini at the schooner bar. I was partial to the white sangria at mostly all the bars! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like 3 kinds of ice cream and 6 toppings. I like ice cream. They do things like crepes back there at the stir fry place that is a egg station for breakfast. Solarium also has a egg station though and quieter .. but after dinner swing by for ice cream. Solarium swing by and grab some baklava. I'm on harmony 4 weeks in Oct again. I know the treats. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ceilidh1 Posted August 25 Author #211 Share Posted August 25 So the pool bar has a smoking area right next to it. I don’t love that. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ceilidh1 Posted August 25 Author #212 Share Posted August 25 OK I need input from RC cruisers here. I always sail with the drink package and sample all the cocktails. On every other line, I would say alcohol content is low as I can drink all day and not feel drunk. After 3 on this ship, I was buzzed. I’m now on 5. Definitely drunk. Do they just add more alcohol? Or actually make the drinks as they should be made? 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare ceilidh1 Posted August 25 Author #216 Share Posted August 25 I feel like I’ve never cruised before. I’m so overwhelmed. Everything is new. I’m constantly lost. I keep getting distracted.

Rare ceilidh1 Posted August 25 Author #220 Share Posted August 25 I ordered a painkiller. Is this a painkiller? I thought it was a different colour? Or maybe I’m just drunk. 3 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare S.A.M.J.R. Posted August 25 #221 Share Posted August 25 (edited) Solarium is forward on 14, 15 (Bistro), AND 16 (Bar). Windjammer (buffet) is aft on 16, but the entrances are on the "pool" side of the elevator lobby. Abyss I was not impressed with. Just did it once. Eh. Same with the zip line. It's only about 10 seconds. Eh. Both are worth doing once IMO. Edited August 25 by S.A.M.J.R. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry noone mentioned about combo shampoo/bodywash. I always pack my own products wherever I go so I forget to mention to people cruising on Royal ships. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
