We have cruised alot but this was our first totally inclusive trip. It was wonderful not to have to sign for anything or have a bill at the end. Our air was included and would've been perfect except that Mother Nature got in the way and delayed our flight for 5 hours. The good part is that British Air sorted the entire mess out and we landed in Nice 6 hours late. A phone call to Regent from the airport brought a quick transfer to our hotel,the Fairmont, Monte Carlo. After a quick check in we were in a lovely room overlooking the harbor and our ship. A 40 euro credit made a dent in a lovely dinner at the hotel. Breakfast was also included as were our group transfers. All shore side events were well planned and went off without a hitch.

Embarkation: On boarding we were greeted with a glass of champagne and check in only took a few minutes. Since cabins weren't ready we went to the lido for a buffet lunch. Shortly afterwards, cabins were available.

Cabin: We met our steward, Deepak. He took wonderful care of us the entire time. Our cabin was an E category, mid ships, with a spacious balcony and a walk in closet. I liked the fact that a drawer unit was included in the closet, thus helping to keep the cabin neat. Our bath included a tub, but had a somewhat funky mirror on the side wall over the tub. I didn't really need to see my questionable splendor as I hauled myself out of the tub!! The shower was fine and the L'Occitane toiletries were wonderful! The bed linens were lovely as well. On our second night out, we had a block party. I believe this is unique to Regent and a wonderful idea. At the sound of a signal, we all went into the hall with an empty wine glass. Stewards were on hand to fill your glass and you had a chance to meet your neighbors. The captain, first officer and cruise director sprinted from deck to deck greeting everyone.
