Hi Karen and Sharon,

We are currently working on what type of ceremonies we will be able to offer on board the ship. Stay tuned for some exciting news! Please give me a call or send me an email with all your questions regarding the trip. You can reach me at 877-793-3830 or via email at flavia@discoversweet.com .

Stay Sweet!

 

Hi,
Are there many Singles or mostly couples,and anyone over 50:)?

 

Hi Pat,
I’m so glad someone out ther had the nerve to ask the questions others have wanted to know. I a true Southern Gal with alot of Southern Hospitality so what was the answer?

Beth

 

how can I find out the answer to the question of singles and 50+?

 

So far, we have a number of singles booked, several over 50. We’re going to have some great programming on board for our single Sweeties. Stay tuned for details.

 

I’m over 50 (53) and newly out! OMG

 

Will Sweet have it’s own entertainment and play area or do we attend the established activities already on board for all passengers? btw, I’m 51 & single ;-)

 

Hi Pierce,

You will be happy to know that we are chartering the whole ship! So, all the guests onboard the NCL Spirit for the Sweet Caribbean cruise will be Sweet guests and staff.

With that said, we are also creating our own activities and bringing on some of our own entertainment like the incredibly hilarious Suzanne Westenhoefer and Erin Foley - recently seen on the Last Comic Standing. As well as the melodious sounds of Jen Foster and Edie Carey…and stayed tuned for more entertainment announcements.

The Sweet activities and fabulous entertainment lineup will be integrated with the already fantastic activities NCL already provides on every cruise. We are also planning on asking some of the wonderful NCL entertainers to stay onboard with us to perform in some of the lounges and bars onboard throughout our cruise.

This is going to be a great cruise with lots to do and see!

Stay Sweet!

 

How exciting, another vacation option!

I’ve been on 2 Olivia vacations and although I had a good time, both times I was dissappointed at the scarcity of women in my age group (25-40).

Therefore, I would like to know more about the demographics of the women currently booked…..
I understand this may be age-prejudiced, and I hope I don’t offend too many ladies out there.
I hope that most of us can understand the want to be with people who are in similar life stages?

Us youngin’s are looking to party!

 

What is the smoking policy? Are there smoking areas?

 

Hi Syn,
Yes, there are designated smoking areas on the ship; however, they are away from heavily trafficked areas for the convenience of our non-smoking passengers.

Stay Sweet,
Shannon

 

fletch,

Since I’m 31 and my partner is 17 years older than me, I never can understand when people want to be with only others of a “similar life stage” as you say.

I think it’s all about finding others that you relate to on a number of levels, and can have fun with, period. There are lots of women over 40 who like to ‘party’ and have a good time! Being young and having fun are NOT mutually exclusive. :)

On my vacations, I always hope to meet a diverse group of women, from all “life stages,” ethnicities and backgrounds.

And that’s the fun of a cruise that brings so many lesbians all together!

 

Fletch,
I understand where you’re coming from and I also understand what “heather” said as well. However, I would also like to see more people in the 25-40 range. not that others don’t know how to have fun, but preference is preference. i have dated both inside and outside of that age range but for the MOST part u find more compatibility within your age group (as far as energy and liveliness). I don’t think anyone is trying to be negative here though, just asking questions they wanna know because…well….we want answers!

 

Hey fletchlives,

We must have been on the wrong ships from each other.
The last couple of cruises I took with OLIVIA I was looking for women more my age (now 38) Everyone seemed to be 30 and under and only a few 40 and over.
But, by the end of the cruise age didn’t seem to matter!

 

Lil doc
My partner and I took an Olivia trip last year and everyone was much older. The average age was 50+ and we were in our mid to late 30’s. We just booked this trip and look forward to meeting everyone of all age groups!!!!!!

Michelle and Angela

 

Is there a tennis court on board?

 

Are any of the meals or libations included in the price of the trip, or are all meals/drinks in addition to the price of the trip?
