We were on the Grandeur for a 16 night cruise from Miami to the southern Caribbean then up the Charleston, SC and New York City. Overall, it was a wonderful cruise.
The highlight of the cruise was the dining experience. All the dining venues offered delicious food and very good service. Natasha and Monique were seemingly everywhere in the restaurants and helped make the experience as good as it ...
It all started when we arrived in Miami from Knoxville, TN. The Regent representative was amply notified of my requirement to utilize a mobility scooter. I was completely transparent about the scooter by sending the specification sheet that shows all the necessary weight, height and width of the equipment. At the MIA airport, which is far from my favorite, the Regent reps led us to the shuttle ...
Our Regent experience was pure luxury from the moment we boarded our included first-class flight to Miami, to the beautiful Biltmore Hotel pre-cruise stay included in the price, and the transfers to and from the airports to hotel to ship and back. I thoroughly enjoyed paying one price before the cruise, and then didn't pay a single penny more from the time we arrived at the airport. We even ...
The ship was nice, but it is made for seniors. I am an active senior but I spent most of my time in the room. I paid for 3 excursions and got to do none of them. In all, I lost over $1000 on excursions. They are not worth it. Just shop in the city near the ship. When reporting the excursions, the manager insinuated that we were stupid and should have known and if we didn't, it showed that we had ...
Overall it was a good cruise . We really liked some things like our cabin. Disliked other things like the lunch buffet at La Veranda . And thought some items were so-so. Like the excursions. I will say the staff and management were excellent. You book this class of ship because you want a smaller ship experience. ie no waiting in lines or fighting for pool chairs . Since the pandemic I have ...
My husband wanted a find a cruise in January, and this was among the few available on such a short period. Grandeur is a new ship, only four months in service, and it is all glitz and bling.
All rooms are suites, and our room was spacious, had a walk in closet, and good separation from the sitting and sleeping area. I love having a bathtub on a cruise, and the one in our bathroom ( with a ...
Regent really delivers luxury and at a high level. Naturally, there are occasional blips but this inevitable and does not take any from the overall experience.
The service culture is evident. Management is visible and engaged in daily operations. I had not observed this on other cruise lines. The service staff is well trained, some are working on their english but all are clearly guest ...
Wonderful ship, very beautiful and luxurious. Great multi national smiling and efficient crew. Food and wines and entertainment all excellent. Our itinerary was good and the excursions also well,organised and enjoyable. Our issues are with the beginning and end of the cruise. The night before we were taken to Sam Lord’s castle on the east coast of Barbados. It’s the windy side if the island, ...
We have always cruised the larger lines, Disney, Royal Caribbean, Celebrity. The Grandeur was our first premium luxury, smaller ship cruise and since the ship is new, this was only the 10th voyage it has made. It is more expensive, but the experience is worth it.
If you sign up for the hotel the night before, they put you in Trump Doral, west of Miami Airport. I think that is a huge mistake ...
This was our first Regent cruise and it lived up to all our expectations and more.....
From the moment we stepped on board we knew it was going to be Special. A bottle of champagne on ice and a beautiful white orchid on the table awaited us in our cabin.
The attention to detail with the ships decor was exceptional. Beautiful fresh flower arrangements were in all the Public areas and ...
