Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. Thanks AZ Wildcat, and come to think of it, the porters have a manifest and hopefully our names will reflect the express designation. Early delivery is important because it takes me forever to hang and put away everything I cram in my 30" luggage - and I always end up having to request a bunch of extra hangers!!
  2. One of the perks of Premium Access is expedited luggage delivery to your stateroom. Our luggage tags were assigned and ready to be printed; then we purchased Premium Access. I was expecting the tags to automatically change and reflect the new status. Didn't happen. I called Celebrity and was told the tags were already issued. Will I be able to receive the express luggage tags at the pier - Port Everglades. After all, this is one of the perks we paid for. Thanks!
  3. We were on Reflection in April, 2023 in Aqua Class so Persian Garden was included. I loved it! Multiple choices - dry and steam rooms - from aroma therapy to Hammam. You might want to wear a baseball cap in the Hamman because some water droplets fall from the ceiling. There's also a dry sauna located in the Ladies locker room and probably the same for Gents. I like going from dry or steam heat to a cool shower located just outside the heated rooms. Come any time within operating hours, go to the checkin desk. They will hold your card until you are done. If I remember correctly, the lockers have instructions for setting the code.
  4. We were on this ship almost a year ago. Everything was clean - except for the steam and sauna rooms! We had wanted to buy the spa package for the whole cruise, that is until we checked out these specific rooms on embarkation day. Awful! Everything had needed torn out and redone and retiled long before we arrived. The rooms smelled (one person in our group said like dirty socks) and water damaged ceilings evident. The ceilings needed to be tiled, not painted plaster. I hope this is no longer the case!
  5. Thanks everyone! I'll watch for openings on deck 8 and above. I didn't think to originally post another question about the soot that falls on the back balconies - that would actually be a worse problem than the noise for me (if it's pretty constant) so if anyone has experienced that I'd most definitely appreciate hearing about it. Thanks again!!
  6. Just booked the last available SV stateroom on the Ascent. Stateroom 7326. Enen is just below. Has anyone stayed in one of these deck 7 aft-facing cabins on the Ascent? I didn't realize Eden was a nightclub till after booking. I'm a light sleeper and am wondering if my white noise machine will drown out Eden noise. Also, when does Eden close for the night? Thanks!
  7. Hey, Pickels! Yes, we had the small room all the way in the back on the left of deck 3 MDR on the Equinox and loved the location! More intimate and so much less noisy! That is interesting that you chose MDR over Luminae. I checked out their posted menu almost nightly on the equinox and there was always something special like filet mignon, etc. that was more appealing to me - but of course, to each his own. 🙂
  8. Thank you :)...for our booking, I did the math and we are ahead with the following being included: gratuities, drink package, spa pass for the week, blu or anytime dining in MDR, and WiFi. I do hope the steam and sauna rooms are nice because we were interested in purchasing the pass for the entire cruise when we were on the Equinox but ended up not purchasing because those rooms needed a major refurbishment a long time ago! They both had an odor (someone in our party mentioned smelly socks) and the steam room didn't have the ceramic tiles on the ceiling, just plaster, and it was obvious there was water intrusion.
  9. Thank you all so very much! Blu sounds like a definite winner. And thanks, Nado44, you are probably right about choosing Beyond balcony over Aqua Class on Reflection. However, we just cruised about 5 or 6 weeks ago on Equinox and I'm pinching pennies lol. Everything that is important is included. Plus, I I like the itinerary on Reflection better. We really enjoyed ourselves on the Equinox so this AC experience on Reflection should be good.
  10. Is dining in Blu a step up from MDR on the Reflection? I read in a review that the food is a disappointment and has changed in negative ways since covid. The reviewer also stated that other cabin classes now can dine in Blu so it can sometimes difficult to get a a table right away. Is this true - what other classes are now dining in Blu? (Trying to decide between Reflection and Beyond - Reflection Blu much more affordable!) Thanks!
