Do the pools and the whirlpools close at a certain time on the Pride?
Also, are there safes in the cabins and is it okay to leave valuables in them?

Katie:

Do you mean Seabourn Pride or Carnival Pride? Not to be picky but that could make a difference in the answers you receive....

Pools and spas close at dusk, and are drained. There is a safe in every cabin, perfectly fine to use. You swipe one of your credit cards to lock/unlock it, although there is no charge to use it.

Katie -- I haven't sailed on the Pride, but I have sailed on the Victory and Triumph, and the whirlpools in the Gym stay open later. I'm sure that the layout is different on the Pride, but the whirlpools on the Triumph and Victory are under a giant skylight, and are very nice after dark.

Hi Katie O'girl We are going on Carnival's Pride for March break! We are looking forward to it (even after all the problems getting it booked) Please make sure you post a review. I am interested in the reservations only dining room. I don't know if it is $20 each person to reserve your table and then you pay for your meal aftre that or is it a one shot deal $20 to reserve your seat?? I would like to try it but we don't think we want to pay a lot of extra money for a dinner when the meals are already included! Let me know what you find out! Did you see my answer on the destinations section about snorkling? have a great trip, when do you go??
