The good to great-staff and food in Moderna and Cagney’s for Exclusive breakfast/lunch! Our cabin steward and butler were amazing as we had a Club Penthouse Cabin. Our concierge was amazing! The Panama Canal Lock viewing was fantastic from our forward balcony. The rockiness of a forward facing balcony however, on the first night was a bit terrifying and sea rockiness does not usually bother me. ...

Even the engineer in our group wasn't completely wowed by the canal, we've cruised other canals, know how they work...other than the history and kinda cool engineering of recycling the water it wasn't that exciting and made us wonder why it was a "bucket list" thing for some. There are other smaller canals around the world that are much more fun to navigate because there are sights along the way, ...

Regent's Most Luxurious Ship

We are Platinum members and have enjoyed all the Regent ships. Our first impression of the Grandeur is WOW! It is laid out just like the Explorer and the Splendor but the decor is over the top. There is more marble on this ship than in the Vatican. The use of alabaster with lighting is throughout the ship. The color scheme is easy on the eyes. Although all the seating looks beautiful, they ...

This was our first cruise on Oceania after previous cruises on Seabourn and Viking. Vista is a beautiful ship with high class interiors and all the amenities one could want. Having just been launched in 2023, the new ship design allowed for new approaches to a healthy environment, such as no-touch doors in all public areas. Just waive your hand over a sensor and the door opens. The buffet in ...

Overall loved the ship. Really elegant. Though similar to Riviera/Marina, there ARE differences. No Jacques. Now its Ember. no hallway to the back of the ship. its now part of Ember. The Grand Lounge is much more elegant than before with gorgeous hand made crystal scattered about. Furniture is upgraded throughout the ship. Pool area is expanded with the slash over area increased in size. There are ...

Loved it but room for improvement

This was our first cruise post lockdown, and we were keen to try this new line as our old favourite, Crystal, went bankrupt. Goal to compare Explora with past experiences on Regent and Silversea, and with “new Crystal” (upcoming). We were not disappointed and would definitely sail with them again, but there were a couple of significant areas where we need them to improve if they want to be at ...

Beautiful ship that needs SOME improvement to be a 5 Star Cruise

Before I get into details and such, we would like to state that we enjoyed the cruise immensely. Most of my critical comments are in the area of food and human factors, which are subjective. We have another cruise scheduled for next January on Explora II. (Overall, 4 Stars). We still think that Regent is a far superior brand to Explora, but it’s still nice to have a choice. Embarkation. ...

We chose this cruise for several reasons. The Panama Canal crossing was of interest as was the embarkation city of Miami. Embarkation was seamless and disembarkation was also complaint free. By the time the cruise started we lost 4 ports and ended up with an extra night in Los Angeles and a trip to Puerto Vallarta. Not happy with the last minute changes that were attributed to "green energy" ...

Crystal was recommended by our doctor friend who had just returned from Iceland and knows our high standards and needs. After an easy non stop fight from Vancouver we boarded with great excitement and warm welcomes. The fish at dinner was suitably mahi mahi for the Caribbean. When the evening entertainment opened with the beautiful Nadiya on violin and Raphael in his whites on trumpet we knew ...

Embarkation was the quickest ever - 20 min from entering building. Food - really average and sometimes delivered cold. Speciality restaurants were found to be better. Staff really good across the board. Poolside music could have been turned down a little to be more of a relaxing feel. Toilets - often found blocked and had to be reported to staff. The ship is showing its age and ...
