Does Royal Caribbean give free water bottles?

On hot days, the water isn't always very cold, but you can always ask your stateroom attendant to bring you some ice for in your room. If you prefer to drink bottled water, you won't be able to get this for free on the ship, unless you bring it on board with you.

For convenience, guests can purchase bottled water prior to the cruise and it will be delivered to the stateroom on embarkation day. Bottled water may also be purchased on board by contacting room service. Once on board, the purchase is non-refundable and guests may take home any unopened bottles.

Since the drinking water on cruise ships is safe to drink, refillable water bottles and drinking cups are the ideal way to stay hydrated, both onboard and in ports. Note that, for hygiene reasons, some cruise lines ask that passengers not fill up personal water bottles directly from water dispensers in the buffet.

Bring your favorite water bottle with you that can keep your beverage cool all day (we love HydroFlask and Swell bottles). The cruise water at the buffet is perfectly safe to drink. If you don't like the taste, throw a lemon or a few strawberries into it.

Royal Caribbean's deluxe beverage package has no limit, but there are rules. You can buy only one drink at a time (although you can generally order a double or a mixed drink with a floater). Technically, you're supposed to wait five minutes between drinks, but that rule rarely comes into play as bartenders are busy.
