  1. I know how a business works, LOL, but thank you. If Disney and Universal can charge less to get into one of their parks, than clearly something is amiss. Labor isn’t more expensive in The Bahamas.
  2. Not much on these private islands in The Bahamas is free. Food, swimming and sitting on the beach are free. Everything else comes with a cost. Agreed. It’s just too much
  3. Yes, burgers and dogs are included, but food has always been included on any line’s private island I’ve been to. It shouldn’t factor into the price.
  4. I’ve been to a lot of water parks in my life, and have never paid the insane price that you have to pay to get into the private island’s waterpark. It’s “on sale,” for $152 pp right now. That’s about double what the expensive water parks in Orlando charge. Has anyone done this park? Is it so over-the-top amazing that we should suck it up and pay the cost? I’m a roller coaster enthusiast who loves the water, so water parks and I are BFFs. I’m just not sure we’re $300 for one day BFFs
  5. Any word on the cost? Might prove to be cozy!
  6. That list of features didn’t include anything about Sabatini’s. Is there no more breakfast?
  7. We have our first Celebrity cruise coming up, soon. We always love to try the specialty restaurants on any line, but the cost on this line is excessive, IMO. We’re debating on Murano, but it’s about $65/pp.
  8. Thank you everyone for the helpful information!
  9. After over a dozen cruises, we are finally getting a chance to experience Celebrity (Reflection.) We are so excited! It’s been on our bucket list since we started cruising, but the price/itinerary combo has never been right. For reference, most of our sailings have been on Princess. A few questions I have 1. Can someone describe the process for getting drinks with the package? Do we have to sign? Can we get a couple at a time and put some beer in our fridge for when we want quiet time in our room, or is it strictly one at a time? Can I use room service to get drinks? 2. Is there a live dealer for Hold ‘Em or is it the electronic table? 3. What is the lowest bet available for BJ? 4. I know it’s subjective, but how are the pillows? We are in a position to bring our own. I’m curious if people generally find them too hard and/or too squishy. I haven’t spent much time in this forum, so I’ve no idea. 5. Is there a 24/7 place to get food, drinks and/or coffee? 6. Are the cabin walls magnetic? 7. What are the room service charges? 8. Is there a wrap-around promenade? I couldn’t determine based on the deck plans. Also, any subjective information you’d like to add would be appreciated. One never knows what one doesn’t know. If there’s a thread on “wish I knew it ahead of time,” stuff, please point me to it. On the Princess forum it’s called Princess Secrets. THANK YOU!
  10. Wow is that a helpful spreadsheet! Yeah, we come out wayyyy ahead booking the package deal. TYTY!!
  11. We are considering our first Celebrity cruise. We have two prices, with/without drink and WiFi packages. It’s a huge difference. In trying to do the math, I am struggling to find what the cost PP/PD is. The best I found was on The Points Guy who says it’s $42-$106.80. Is there anywhere to see what my cost would be for the specific cruise we are considering?
  12. Flip flops are fine for every dining venue, including MDR for breakfast and lunch. Women wear sandals all the time, regardless of meal. There are reasons to not wear flip flops in the MDR at night, but safety isn’t one of them, or they wouldn’t be allowed anywhere. I’ve heard far more frequent crashes in the buffet.
  13. The people exercising and line dancing from decks 6 & 7 was probably my biggest annoyance. We really didn’t spend much time in the Piazza on our last cruise. The Lido deck used to be the noisiest place on the ship, but not anymore.
  14. My review of Enchanted earlier this month wasn’t overly negative. While there were certainly negative points, like the noisy Piazza and bad buffet food, overall, it was a fantastic cruise and we’ve already booked another cruise with Princess for a few months from now. I predict you will have a fabulous time. Where we find challenges, we seek workarounds. Nothing was insurmountable. Have fun! Please come back and tell us about your cruise.
