We have a room with just a toilet/shower with a door. The sinks are open to the master bedroom. On one hand, it sucks because M-F I do my hair with just the light from the closet behind me so I don't wake up DH. But on the other hand, if DH gets up early, he can get into the shower while I'm still fiddling at the sink.

The last two houses I have lived in do not have a door between the master bedroom and connecting bathroom. Both have/had separate toilet rooms with a door. You can't see the bathroom from the door of the bedroom. The only thing i don't like is if someone goes into the bathroom early in the morning to use the sink or shower and turns on the light. There is nothing to keep the light from shining partly into the bedroom.
I looked at alot of model homes in the early 2000's when there was a big building boom here and most homes did not have a door separating the master bedroom from the bathroom. So it is pretty common here.

DH is up for work two hours before I am so having a door on our master bathroom is a must.... not to mention that I like the door when he, uh, uses the "library" for an extended period of time!

No, but we have a water closet and the shower can't be seen into. Just close the bedroom door if you're using the bathroom.

I am currently looking at new house plans for the beach house the the Social Club at work, and a lot of the new houses do NOT have a door from the master bedroom to the en suite.

Our house is old (1960s), and we don't really have a master bathroom. We do have an L-shaped bathroom that opens into both our tiny master bedroom and into the main hallway outside three of our bedrooms. I often walk through the bathroom to get to our room. So yes, we have doors on both and it's necessary for privacy. I think that if I had an actual master bathroom, I'd prefer to have doors on it even if it was set up into two parts (toilet room and everything else).

Quoting myself because I don't know how to edit in Taptalk..... In all the new house designs I've looked at, every master bedroom has an ensuite. IF the toilet is separate and has a door then there is no door to the bathroom/shower. IF the toilet is in the bathroom with the sinks, vanity and shower etc, there IS a door.

We have a door on the bathroom in the master bedroom in our current house, but in our previous house, the bathroom did not have a door. And in thinking about it, the master bath in my sister's house also does not have a door. We moved into our previous house in 1991, so based on that, I would not say it's a "new" trend.

Deal breaker for me. I'd have to consider the cost of adding a door if I was looking at a house w/o one.

Ours does not, it opens up to the sink/tub/shower, but the toilet has it's own room with a door. (Our house was built in '99)
