Pricing
An automatic 18% service charge is typically added to each drink unless included in a beverage package ($1–2 more per drink). To save money at The Hideaway Bar, consider pre-purchasing a drink package. Royal Caribbean offers several beverage packages to help guests manage onboard drink costs: the Deluxe Beverage Package covers unlimited alcoholic beverages (up to $14 each) including cocktails, beer, wine, and most non-alcoholic drinks; the Refreshment Package includes unlimited non-alcoholic beverages such as mocktails, specialty coffees, bottled water, and fresh juices; and the Classic Soda Package provides unlimited fountain sodas and a souvenir cup. All packages include the standard 18% gratuity in the price, and the Deluxe option requires all adults in a stateroom to purchase it if one does. Deluxe Beverage Package: $56 - $115 per day Royal Refreshment Package: $29 - $42 per day Classic Soda Package: $13 - $16 per day Most packages cover drinks priced at $14 or below; any drink exceeding that may incur an additional charge.
Attire
Smart casual attire, like collared shirts, dresses, or slacks, is recommended for lounge bars like Viking Crown Lounge; evening visits may call for slightly dressier outfits.
How to reserve
To purchase a package pre-cruise, simply log in to your "My Cruises" account, find your sailing in the Cruise Planner, and select your preferred beverage package. Packages are also available for purchase at any bar once you are onboard, but they will be sold at a higher, non-promotional rate. It's important to note that an 18% gratuity is automatically added to the cost of the package regardless of when you purchase it.
How to purchase
There are two primary methods for purchasing a Royal Caribbean drink package: pre-cruise through the online Cruise Planner or onboard the ship on the first two days of your sailing. The pre-cruise method is highly recommended as it almost always offers a lower price, and you can take advantage of sales and promotions. This also allows you to budget and plan your vacation expenses in advance.
