1-10 of 45 Regent Seven Seas Navigator Cruise Reviews for Senior to the Eastern Caribbean
We had not sailed with Regent since the covid outbreak. This was our 5th sailing with them, second time on the Navigator. We were shocked. Every Luxury, high end detail had been lowered, from the wine, liquor (did not even have everyday liquors, like Grand Marnier in stock), to the food. All management on board would listen to your complaints and problems, said they would take care of it, ...
We'd booked this well in advance after we had such a great experience on SS in June, 2022 in the Baltic - so, the anticipation was a long time in building. We're glad to say that it met or exceeded our expectations. The Navigator IS an older ship, which you may not notice most of the time; but when you're in the lower decks, including the Compass Rose dining room, the shakes and rattles are very ...
We are a young 70s couple with 10 Seabourn cruises and several Silver Seas and Tauck cruises under our belt. We chose this cruise pretty much because it was available with a superior suite (Navigator Suite) when Seabourn was sold out. Also, Regent sports itself as "Ultra Luxury" so we though we would give it a try.
First the pre-night hotel stay. The Hilton was awful! Pretty beach but ...
When we arrived at Barbados there was chaos with the ground agents who didn’t seem to know who was going to which hotel for the first night stay. Luggage was being put into various vans and guests were put on minibuses and after quite a while we set off for the hotel. We were concerned about the luggage as on a previous Regent cruise our luggage had been lost!
We arrived at the Accra Beach ...
This was our first cruise with Regent. We've travelled with Viking, Windstar, Poinant, and others. The Navigator cruise from Barbados to Barbados looked like a nice itinerary. The cruise itself was very nice and the crew and food were great, on a par with Viking. There were a couple of issues shouldn't have happened on Regent.
The main issue was the absolutely chaotic transfer from the ...
I'm not great with big crowds so we decided for our first cruise we would go with a smaller ship (which I am glad we did) and as I like quality the Seven Seas Navigator seemed like a good choice. We were originally touring the Caribbean in 2020 but the pandemic stopped that so this was our rescheduled attempt. Organising the cruise was easy and we got good advice from the rep in the U.K. ...
We have done several Regent Seven Seas cruise but this was the first on their oldest and smallest ship. Other reviews on the ship have not always been favourable but we found the ship in very good condition and the facilities and service levels fully up to previous Regent standards. - and really liked the small number of passengers (490). We had a suite in the rear, and the ship does vibrate a bit ...
I chose this as I have cruised on Silversea and Crystal and wanted to see what Regent was like. I expected the "remarkable luxury" as stated by Regent-- which may have been an over expectation. It turned out to be no where fulfilled. I booked a penthouse Suite which included a pre cruise hotel stay. Regrettably my hotel room was dirty and all Regent guests were not given the a la carte breakfast ...
We chose this cruise/cruise line because RSSC has a great reputation, people recommended it; and we've never been to most of the ports. The ship: old, but beautifully updated. Nothing was dirty or stained or worn. Very clean. From public spaces to rooms. Nice touch the walk-in closet. I'm not sure any other cruise line offers this. Butler service was great but we found we really ...
We have sailed many times with Regent. ALWAYS STANDARDS HAVE BEEN HIGH BUT NOT SO MUCH ON THIS CRUISE. still great staff BUT the organisation re travel was lousy. Forced to fly via Heathrow both ways when direct flights available, dumped on day of departure in a beach club that was 1 star and over crowded to a level that was crazy. Put on a minibus with 10 passengers plus all luggage, crammed in ...
