  1. And that’s what I love about cruising! There are different things for everyone. After that review of the RS, we will pass. We just got an AMAZING Move Up offer for a RS on the Apex at the end of June and would much prefer to stay in our Sunset Sky Suite.
  2. We booked Senses for our trip at the end of June. Very excited!! We LOVE dinning this way where we don’t know what to expect. (Going to skip any future posts on this topic so we remain surprised!) We already know we are going to do the Ultimate Experience.
  3. Hands down the Dolphin deck suites have HUGE balconies. But shhhh! Don't tell anyone. 🙂
  4. There is one poster that is always negative. Trying to enjoy a “live from” thread and really sick of seeing this person’s posts. Can I tag this person so I don’t see their posts only?
  5. So a purist would say that that is just a cocktail served in a martini glass. Martinis do not have anything with sugar in it. 🤪. Gin or vodka and some vermouth. But enjoy!
  6. VERY vague question. cons: the sunset bar is the worst of any Celebrity ship. Too small. pros: everything else! We love this ship and will be on her again in 6 short weeks! Give us more details and we can help you. Are you in the retreat? What do you like to do on cruises. My experience may be completely different than yours and influence what we think is great about this ship.
  7. Maybe there is something different. Let's see if someone from the ship can elaborate. My comment was without first hand Enchanted knowledge. Apologies.
  8. Yeah, we paid for the first night ahead of time and so the suite concierge arranged another night free.
  9. Yes, it is basically just the regular burger stand with additional items. I do appreciate the additions so that you have more choices than just a burger or hot dog. That tacos are good if I remember. As well as the pulled pork. A welcome (small) addition with more options for lunch without going to The Trough (my affectionate name for the buffet!).
  10. The Caribbean Princess is NOT a Royal class ship. She is a Grand class.
  11. That family problems were solve within a 7 day cruise instead of creating a whole bunch of new ones! 😜
  12. We loved Ally! He was so kind to us. Tell him hi from Chris & Derrick. We were his party of 9 that sat on the very front a few weeks ago! They all treated us like family.
  13. And there is the indoor pool so will definitely be able to swim. But laying out by the pool in the sun was probably more what you were asking. I’m doing the Baltics in late June/early July and not counting on super warm days. I’ll sit in a lounger with jeans, that’s okay with me. You can google average temps for that area to get some idea. But weather is a always a luck of the draw.
  14. Then they should get one. The only thing I hate more than “influencer” is “literally” and “at the end of the day”. Now get off my lawn!! 🤪
  15. I absolutely hate them! Sat next to one at dinner one night (and the tables are on top of each other) and they had to film each other eating dinner and giving their opinion the entire time. It was so rude of them. Its much more than just two people having dinner conversation. Then on the Apex a few weeks ago during one of the flare demonstrations we had someone with TWO cameras standing right in front, filming. No one else could see anything. These people think they are so important and providing a "service". They are just rude. Now, full disclosure, I love the videos of people filming their cabin to help me choose which one and maybe some general "here is the ship" type of content. But many of them (not all by any means) think they are more important than anyone else. (Could be said for anybody really, not just "influencers", I admit.) If there were considerate, I shouldn't even notice them and they wouldn't bother me. The best day was when the person from dinner above was RUNNING around the ship a few later because he lost his go-pro somewhere. Sweet revenge. 🙂 Just be considerate of other people and it wouldn't be a problem.
  16. And in the theme of the post, I too LOVED our cruise. The Apex is beautiful and the service is exemplary. I switched to Celebrity before the Pandemic because of the great service by the crew and this exceeded my expectations. Top notch crew.
  17. And I found her most annoying. She spoke in such a sing-songy fashion that sounded like she was talking to 4 year olds. I know the Cruise Director has to be upbeat but don't insult my intelligence. I'm still an adult.
  18. Just off the Apex on Saturday. It was definitely MUCH more crowded than our other cruises since the pause. But it never affected our cruise experience. Main pool was PACKED on the sea days. But we don’t hang at the main pool. Walking around, you definitely noticed a lot of people but once we got to our destination, it wasn’t crowded. Not sure where all these people were going but they weren’t doing the same things as me. Eden, Craft Social, specialty restaurants for lunch, even the martini bar weren’t that busy.
  19. The music groups in the Grand Plaza varied and there is a small dance floor. Some people with more formal dancing (ballroom?) were cutting a rug one night.
  20. How are the retreat hosts? With this being the hubbys 60th, I have a few requests for them. Not much. Any pointers for me to enjoy my cruise on the Apex for the first time? Checked into our flight and checked out of work! We are ready!
  21. Hey Gary! Don’t damage the ship too much. Try to leave it in good health for when we take over on the 25th! Interested in the boarding process since I’ll be herding a pack of 9 cats with me! Once I get them on the ship, they are Celebrity’s responsibility! 🤪 Just watched the ship come in on the Port Everglades webcam. Can’t wait!!
  22. My nephew was about the same distance away from 3 years and was not allowed. It is definitely a strict cutoff and not “around 3” type of thing.
