Complimentary Toiletries

[Jamie.RN]

Seems like I recently read that shampoo, conditioner, and soap are provided free-of-charge in your cabin daily. Is that correct? I'm trying to eliminate as much as possible from my suitcase. (we'll be on the Island Princess)

And lotion too. :)

Does anyone know what brands? I have really, really sensitive skin...

Princess brand Lotus Spa.

Take a look at http://www.easytravelerinc.com they have leakproof containers that you can transfer your favorite personal care products to in a couple of seconds so you are only taking a few ounces of them with you. Watch the demo.

Some people really love the lotus spa brand, I found that it made my hair look flat and dull. I take my own shampoo and conditioner in the cheap travel containers that can be found in almost every where: k-mart, target, wal-mart, drug stores and even some grocery stores. For extra leak proofing I put the containers in a zip lock plastic bag. I also didn't like the lotion, the scent clashed with my perfume. But that's just my opinion.

Does the stewards replenish daily and enough for 2 people?

every day and if you want more just ask them.

Are they in the small paper containers that you have to rip open, then can't close after use. That's the one drawback I found with the toiletries.

depends on your room

 

Mini Suite and above they are in little bottles. My wife loves the lotion. I told the cabin steward that and I asked her if I could buy them on the ship and she said not to worry....we had I think 10 bottles of lotion in our room the last night. We had an awesome cabin steward. Of course all it takes I think it to treat them like a human being and try to keep your room somewhat clean and they will love you. I heard one couple say something that was so mean to our cabin steward it almost made her cry......with the couple half way down the hall I said to it ok siwan I think your the best cabin steward on the ship. I wasn't trying to earn any "brownie" points but I think it helped.

We had a mini suite on the Sapphire a couple of weeks ago....the stuff was in bottles and pretty nice...I probably have ten bottles of each now at home..they were very generous...yes....be nice to your room steward...it pays!:D

On the Caribbean Princess last year we had a balcony room and the little cardboard paper containers. Our room steward did not replenish them daily though. I would take my own to be safe...better safe than sorry!
