Relaxing at Sea on Majestic Princess

THE ENCLAVE® 

AT LOTUS SPA®

We continued our exploration of Majestic Princess with a tour of the Lotus Spa.

The highlight of the spa is the Enclave, home to Princess’ largest-ever thermal suite and a dramatic hydro-therapy pool with a cascading rain shower and therapeutic air jets. Here you can relax on heated stone beds or soothing water beds.

Features include: The Hammam – a Turkish-style steam bath, and from Roman times, the Caldarium –a light steam chamber infused with herbal aromas and the Laconium – a heated, dry chamber to help with purification and detoxification of the body.

At the conclusion of the tour, we booked a couples hot stones massage for the next day and use of the Enclave for the entire cruise for the two of us. Except for embarkation day, we spent time in the Enclave either before or after dinner.

Tip:  Take advantage of first day discounts at the Lotus Spa.  You should book your treatments early so that you get your preferred dates and times.

In addition to the time we spent at the spa on Majestic Princess, we spent time relaxing at the Hollywood Pool Club and the Hollywood Conservatory.  We'll share more details in another post.

Welcome Aboard Majestic Princess

Exploring the Ship

Thirty minutes after arriving at the Sydney Overseas Passenger Terminal, we were checked in for our cruise and in our cabin.   We dropped off our hand luggage, took a few pictures of our cabin, and Sydney from our balcony, and headed to get something to eat.,

This Welcome Aboard sign and characters made from fruit and vegetables, greeted us on the buffet line.  Since we had early seating dinner, at 5:15 PM, we just had something light to hold us over until then.

Throughout the cruise, the buffet line was decorated with #CruiseFruitArt like these.  The crew is very talented.  We've seen decorations like these before, but none that were as elaborate as the ones on Majestic Princess.  We'll post some more of these pictures as we continue our blog posts from this trip.

After lunch, our next stop was the Lotus Spa for a tour of the facility and to book our spa activities for the cruise.   Hot Stones massages and pass to the thermal suite, Enclave, were the two spa activities we booked.   It is a good idea to book as soon as you get onboard the ship so that you can get your preferred date and time for your spa appointments and so that there is still availability in the thermal suite.  See the next post for more about the spa.
