*Princess

Thank you so much 😊

Thank you for your kind words😊 And thanks for watching 👍

Ohhh, and aqua sky suite will be incredible. Glad you enjoyed this little snippet of what you have to look forward to 😊👍

@@visitwithus Reviewed your video again before our Retreat experience starting later this week. 10 days in a Retreat AquaClass Sky Suite. Thanks again!!

So glad you found it helpful. Thanks for watching and commenting 😊

Thank you Rico for your kind words and for watching it twice 😁👍 We’re glad it helped you make your decision and hope you have a wonderful cruise 🚢 😊

Thanks Jamie 😊 So easy to spend most of your time in the Retreat on the Beyond, it’s such a beautiful area 💙

Thank you Mike 😊 Hope you have a great time in the Beyond 👍

Thank you for watching and for your lovely comment. Have a great cruise 👍

Thanks for watching and for your kind words Paul 😊

The dichotomies of the march of progress 😆 Thanks for watching and commenting.

Thanks for watching 👍😎

100%. I will walk by cafes on land they don’t share their tables. Hate sun glare and have no desire to burn. It’s the 21st century: people are more aware of sun damage than ever and it seems businesses just ignore this to save money.

Thanks for watching 😎👍

Thank you for watching and commenting. We’re glad you liked Celebrity. Like you say the Retreat is a lovely treat if you can afford to splash the cash but the rest of the ship is lovely too 😊

Thanks PJ 👍 We haven’t sailed on the Apex but were impressed with the Sky suite and Retreat on the Beyond.

Thanks for watching 😊

Indeed. The entertainment was amazing 👍 As always thanks for watching 😊

It’s huge and was extremely expensive to build. Really quite remarkable. 😍

Thanks for watching Pamela 👍

Awesome, let’s hope so 👍 Thanks for watching 😊

I too love aqua class, Blu for me is ok but the spa experience is what I am all about..unfortunately i am going on the Beyond as a solo the next time so I will need to get that thermal suite reserved very soon🚢😊PS who can get tired of your voice…not me!

@@eminiarvii We always compare the prices of Aquaclass against a balcony and paying for my hubby for a steam room pass for the length of cruise as he loves that. I don’t as i hate the heat. Every time we compare just getting a balcony and paying for his pass, is hundreds of $$$ cheaper.

We love aqua class too, Blu is our favourite restaurant (apart maybe from Eden on the Edge class ships) Though the Retreat experience was amazing and the Sky suite gorgeous ❤️

@@visitwithus I do like Blu a lot as well.

I’m looking at booking Aqua on next cruise. Blu included. Spa access but not treatments. Tips included. Wifi (but is it premium streaming wifi?), Drinks (but NOT premium drink package.). That will run you about an additional $17/day. Time to crunch the numbers.

We did, and she’s just as lovely in real life - she stayed and chatted to us for ages even though she’s a very busy lady 👍

Bless you Debbie (and fiancé). Made my day. ☺️

We have never sailed in The Haven so would be interested to hear how you think the Retreat compares. Our cabin was midships and the Retreat is right at the front so it was a little walk but you know, with all that delicious food you have to get the exercise in somehow 😆 Thanks for watching and your kind comments 👍

Thanks for watching - please don’t stop 😁👍

Hello 👋

Definitely seems that way 😔 Thanks for watching 👍

Thank you 😊 We’ve yet to do a Northern lights cruise I’m afraid 😞 Hopefully soon 🤞 Thanks for watching 👍

Blu is one of our favourite restaurants on any Celebrity ship and a real bonus of booking aqua class in our opinion. We would highly recommend also trying Le Voyage and Eden and if you like a steakhouse then fine cut is nice too. Magic carpet is a unique experience and worth doing if you want that, however it’s very pricey and the food is good but not exceptional - you’re paying for the experience of eating on the side of the ship in our opinion, which could be docked in a not so attractive port so beware of that. Thanks for watching and enjoy your cruise 👍

Yes, apart from the main dining rooms, Luminae and Blu suite guests still have to pay for the other extra cost restaurants. Have you see our Dining Guide? ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-wAP4plFdc4w.html Thanks for watching 👍

@@visitwithus yes I have watched it twice , really liked the le petit chef . Looks like great fun . Don’t know if le voyage would be worth doing because Blu & luminae look so good . What specialty restaurants would you think would be worth a visit .

@@tonyhayes8298 Have seen reviews the food at Le Petit Chef is underwhelming.. more of an amusing experience once but not worth a repeat.. children are big fans!

Not at the moment, sorry. In all honestly we think we would prefer Celebrity Retreat - but let us know how you get on.

I was referring to an old Monty Python sketch from the film The Meaning of Life where there’s a restaurant scene and the waiter (who was ‘French’) asks Mr Creosote (the diner) if he would like one more ‘wafer thin mint’. He pronounces it like I did. I don’t normally say it like that. 😆 BTW, don’t watch the Monty Python clip - it’s utterly revolting. 😬

Oh, sorry. Who would have known. I think we left the UK at the height of their popularity, 1975. But we did not find it very funny anyway. You are younger than us, so you must have seen re-runs. LOL take care , like your vids

We would say mostly dressy casual rather than dressed to the nines 👍

Thank you 😊 👍

Hurrah! I was right! 😆 Seriously though like you said - disappointing.

It was a sea food party in your mouth.

Are you from Maine? 😂

Thanks for watching Tony. We were in a regular Sky Suite and we were allowed in Blu whenever we wanted. I wonder if they’ve changed the rules?

@@visitwithus i was just on the beyond in a sky suite transatlantic . And we could go to Blu anytime :)

@@TheTonyedwards1958 Indeed. It's our favourite restaurant too! :D

We love both Celebrity and Regent but they are, like you rightly point out, two very different products. We’ve never done the ABC island but love the eastern Caribbean but would probably pick the regent Alaska cruise in all honesty. The inclusion of some excursions in the price would be a huge benefit in Alaska and our Regent experience on the Splendor was simply top notch. If you want some more advise we would recommend giving Panache cruises a call, tell them we’ve recommended you and they’ll be able to discuss both options with you in plenty of detail. Let us know what you decide and how it goes 👍

Thanks for watching 👍

Interesting.. I love them tucked around the corner for a little break from splashing.. :)

Haha! True! 🤣

Really? Interested to hear why. 🙂

Our sky suite was located between the struts supporting the magic carpet. Problem was that at night, we believe it was what created very loud pops and cracking noises, similar to your house settling at night. First night we thought it will go away, but it was relentless. Even my wife who sleeps more soundly than me, could not sleep. This went on all night long. We complained to our butler who told us other of her guest had also complained about the noises in there cabins. She recorded the noise and told the hotel manager who came down himself, listened to the noise. He agreed it was unacceptable for celebrity and especially suite guests, unfortunately he told us no other suites were available. So five of our nine nights were relegated to catnaps(10-15 minutes). On the sixth day they found a different suite on a different floor and away from the magic carpet. We had to takes naps during the day to get any rest. So our cruise was ruined.

@@Catmeaner Wow, that sucks! We almost booked that exact suite. I may an last minute decision not to. Wife was aftraid the M. Carpet would pass by our room when she was in the buff with the shade pulled back LOL. I would not abandon the ship though, just book a suite away from the m. carpet.

@@jamielorence4792 I agree now. It’s a beautiful boat and we enjoyed being on the magic carpet to have a drink. Hopefully they have addressed the problem and remedied the problem. When they finally moved us to a different sky suite different floor and away from the carpet, it was so nice. But after so many sleepless(literally) nights, our cruise was ruined.

Thanks for watching.
