Regent has been on our list for a while so this itinerary seemed perfect for us. The first clue it might not be great was the check-in at Barcelona, the guests seemed very old. I'm guessing the average age was in the 80s, or at least that's how it felt. People just weren't that friendly (unlike the staff) and it seemed to be a who has been on the most Regent cruises competition. The ship was ...
Given the marketing, the press coverage and the claims of “the world’s most luxurious ship” with a "heritage of perfection”, we were very excited and prepared to have our mind blown on the inaugural cruise of this new vessel. In retrospect, as relatively new to cruising, we should have done more research on Regent and their vibe. Now don’t get me wrong, there’s a lot to like about Grandeur, but ...
We sailed on the Grandeur's maiden voyage from Trieste to Barcelona, then continued on from Barcelona to Miami. The ship largely met the many glowing reviews, with the Compass Rose main dining room the most stunning MDR we have experienced. Service was flawless and, contrary to early reviews, we found the production shows excellent with the talent of the performers, costumes, and staging all a ...
After having a wonderful cruise on the Mariner in June we decided we wanted to book Regent again and what a complete difference between the 2 cruises
Most of the staff was very miserable, hardly any staff ever smiled.
Shore excursion desk the staff looked like don’t bother me and go away
Wifi unacceptable
Food compared to Mariner was terrible, i think the chef and food director were ...
First time Regent clients here and thoroughly disappointed. The Penthouse suite we stayed in was very nice, but also tired. The Butler service overhyped and unnecessary in our opinion - just canapés delivered daily and a mini bar also topped up daily - only it wasn’t and required reminders. The vast majority of their waiting staff and all of the housekeeping teams were fabulous. The reception ...
My sister and I wanted to visit Istanbul on the newer RSS Splendor, so we were very happy that we made it to the Turkish ports of Istanbul and Izmir, which were the reasons for booking this itinerary.
It was my sister's 1st cruise, and she loves cruising now!
I have sailed Regent, Oceania, and WindStar with husband and loved all voyages, but this was a girl's getaway.
Pre-cruise, we ...
This was a memorial cruise following the deaths of both of our parents. I went with my sister, brother and his wife. We paid $40,000 for the two cabins on the Regent SS Voyager for the trip from Barcelona to Lisbon. June 25 to July 2, 2023. It was not the top quality we had paid for. It was quite disappointing
1. Lack of communications and zero organization regarding flight check ins and ...
This is our second cruise with Regent, we embarked in Istanbul and went (are still going) around the Eastern Mediterranean.
The butler and steward are fantastic they always have a smile and are super helpful, nothing we have asked for is too much work for them.
The food was mostly ok, not wow but ok, we did have one bad meal - lunch at the compass rose, the burger was undercooked, potatoes ...
This is our second cruise with Regent, our first was on the Explorer and was a wonderful experience.
Compared to the Explorer, the Voyager is somewhat shabby and is in need of an upgrade.
The food was generally fine but not as excellent as I remember the food on the Explorer being. There are also fewer dining options.
The Wi-Fi was glitchy, but perhaps that's to be expected on ...
After many cruises with the old Crystal Cruises, we were looking for a new luxury cruise line. Several people recommended Regent Seven Seas to us. We already were planning to be in Europe, so picked this cruise. I will start by saying that the dining staff and room attendants were very good. Friendly, attentive, thoughtful service. Our cabin was larger than what Crystal had, a real plus. ...
