elhenry Posted August 29, 2009 #1 Share Posted August 29, 2009 Just back from a GS on the Grandeur ... one of the highlights (we are easily amused) was the full fledged "towel man". Never got one in a regular cabin in RCCL (or on full suites on other lines, for that matter) My sister in the RFS also got a full sized, remote-on-hand towel man. Now, our cabin steward Anthony was the finest steward ever, even without towel man. Is this is own specialty, or, as I suspect, one of the perks for the extra $$$$<G> el henry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your towel things are entirely dependent on the skill and time available of your cabin attendant, NOT the category of your cabin! I remember reading about someone who rued the fact that his steward had apparently "flunked" towel animal school. This poster stated that on night #2, they received a snake. On night #3, there was an eel. On night #4, it was a worm. :D :D :D :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KatnipKris Posted August 29, 2009 #4 Share Posted August 29, 2009 We had Anthony when we were on the Grandeur in June and he was the best. We had a Junior Suite and he made a towel man for all his rooms. When we were walking back to our cabin, I saw him making his towel man for his inside cabins also.

Ladylouwho Posted August 29, 2009 #6 Share Posted August 29, 2009 We had a towel man in our D1 Balcony cabin on the Rhapsody of the Seas some years back. This "towel man" was so good it just about scared the you know what out of me when I thought some guy was laying on the bed watching TV. Very skilled cabin steward.

rubrrick Posted August 29, 2009 #7 Share Posted August 29, 2009 Towel man? Does he drop his towel?? Trash begets trash!

Hypo Posted August 29, 2009 #18 Share Posted August 29, 2009 We had a "towel man". Dressed in my pants, shirt, sunglasses and hat. He was setting at the desk when we came back to the cabin one night. It looked pretty realistic when we walked through the door. I thought we had gone in the wrong cabin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gottogocruisin Posted August 29, 2009 #19 Share Posted August 29, 2009 We had a towel man on the Brillance in a JS, but I think I need to upgrade to a "real" suite if you get a towel man like bajathree got!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoofingPrincess Posted August 29, 2009 #23 Share Posted August 29, 2009 We had a GS on the Serenade in June, wonderful cabin attendant, but no towel man. Too bad, it would've meant at least one of us three gals had a guy in her bed that night! :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
debandbill Posted August 29, 2009 #24 Share Posted August 29, 2009 Yep, we had one on the Brilliance (JS / 11 day cruise) that our steward placed on the sofa...we moved him to the bed and put her tip envelope in his hands before dinner the last night...scared her to death and she called the other stewards to see what we had done to her. It was fun! Deb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
