We all had a really great time. THANK YOU Houseparty for yet again, providing me with some great tools to have great parties. I thought this was a great party idea, I have to echo so many others regarding the time frame for booking the cruise, in this economy, people simply do not purchase bit ticket items on a whim..but it gave a lot of thought to RCC for the nexta vacation. We were able to share our experiences with everyone..great party pack as well. Thanks again, and we will certainly book our next cruise shortly...

we had a great time.. hope someone will book a cruise, wish the window of time to book a cruise was more.. people could not commit to a cruise in that amount of time.. that is something you have to plan for... everyone did love the booklets and the discounts.. thanks again to royal carribbean and house party for the fun

We had a great time - fun, food and friends. Not as many showed up as originally hoped but still a good time. Most of my friends are considering cruising but still don't want to feel rushed into booking anything at this time. The brochures are a hit though and the Oasis looks incredible!

We had a fabulous party. Everyone didn't show up but five families did. One is now thinking of cruising to Alaska. That would be cool. Fabulous time, great party, felt like we were cruising. Thanks.

We had a great party! And we've gotten our cruise booked!!! We're going in January. Our cruise planner has been great to work with. I do wish the booking window was longer. I know more of my friends were considering a cruise but didn't want to rush into it.

I tried to book a cruise this week to take advantage of the great offers but need a little more time. But I do have two RCCL cruises I am going on this month and next and am very excited about it!!
We are still talking about the fun we had at the party!!

Everyone had a good time. Some were talking of cruising, but Cruise Planners offer didn't give them enough time (1 week) to decide. No one want to rush into a anything just to enjoy the benefits. They don't know if they'll book through Cruise Planners, RCCL or a travel agency. They took the catalogs and other information with them. I'm planning on sailing on the Oasis of the Seas in 2010.

This party was a blast, everyone was very excited about the cruising catalogs, they were fighting to see who would take them home! I explained to the losers that all the information was also online, that helped. Lots of people were making plans!

We had a great party too! Not as many people showed up as I expected but those that came enjoyed eating, drinking, and looking at the cruise brochures. Unfortunately no one is able to go on a cruise anytime soon but they will keep Royal Caribbean in min if they do. We also had fun sharing our precious cruise experiences and stories. It was a fun night! Thanks Royal Caribbean!

We played Carribean music and music from the Incas. we played the word search game , had Avocoladas, gave out door prizes and everyone was pleased with the gifts...but not pleased with the karaoke---no words on the screen....cheap leis and decorations provided by Cruise Planners --they are going to benefit from the contacts we give them , you'd think they could have spent a little more or offered Hosts something extra for doing all the leg work for them!!

Cannot get my pic uploaded on the cruisitude site, follow the houseparty tab, and get to add pictures, and it pops up and says I have left the parent page and closes my window.

We had a great time. Had "tropical" drinks in the plastic cups we had from previous cruises, sat around and shared our experiences from past cruises. We had a big spread of food, played bingo, had a scavenger hunt and had great music playing. Fun was had by all.

We had a really good time. Unfortunately I had gotten sick that week, but I was starting to feel better by Friday Evening. I cooked all day Saturday. I love to cook for parties and my guests love for me to cook. We played bingo, we played pool we looked and looked and looked and discussed all the brochures. I thought I was going to have a hard time getting everyone involved with the brochures and talking about cruising. Boy was I wrong. That's all they wanted to talk about. It was a lot of fun.

We had so much fun. I had 30 people counting all of the kids. Everyone got to do whatever they wanted -- some swam, some lounged, lots of people danced....a conga line ran through the whole thing.

By the end, we were all getting our heads together to plan a family cruise. Right now, it looks like we will be doing an all cousins reunion in June. Our cruiseplanner is working out all of the details for us.

We had a great time! We had a nice cool evening and live music. The band was going so well (it's my son's band -- jazz) that we never did do Karaoke. Lot's of dancing, definitely used prizes (gave the bag for funniest cruise phone -- there were some odd pic's in there!), we did simple food pizza & appetizers. All in all a really good time.

We were a small group (unfortunately), but everything was great. We had delicious caribbean food, drinks, music and games. Thanks RC hopefully I win the cruise for two (that would be super!!!)

Where do we send the Cruisitude song recording to? I did get it downloaded and we all sang and danced.

The party was great. It would of been better if my son felt better (he had a cold). The weather held up most of the day so everyone was able to enjoy the pool and the festivities. My guests were impressed with the Oasis brochure, and we were talking about going on the Oasis together since they never experienced Royal Caribbean. I showed everyone our pictures and video from Independence of the Seas, and they could not believe their eyes when they saw us on the flowrider! That was a big influence to get everyone to think about cruising on Royal Caribbean!
