  1. I'm not a morning person either but will get up early if a vacation is involved and I have to be somewhere at a specific time. We don't care for the bench seats either. My husband has severe back issues and a hard object like a bench puts him in great pain. I'm petite and I doubt I'll be able to sit back during the show. So sorry for your back pain and having spasms. Have a good evening!
  2. Thank you very much!! Have a fantastic evening! Cheers!🍷
  3. Great menu! If you have a chance (If not, no worries), could you find out when the Pinnacle lunch is for the next cruise? Our friends that we are sailing with are Pinnacle and it would help us plan our dinner reservations. Many thanks in advance! Enjoy!!!!
  4. Thank you!🙂 Looking forward to our cruise next week with our friends. Thanks for posting and will enjoy reading your reviews/seeing pictures! Cheers!
  5. We'll keep our fingers crossed and hope for the best. Greatly appreciate you making us aware of what is going on. Have a fantastic day!
  6. Thanks so much for letting me know. Will get there early to deal with the mess. Great job finding a prime parking spot!🙂
  7. We have a 10:30am check in. How early should we arrive due to the 'mess'?
  8. Perfect! Looking forward to your reviews. Will be on Wonder next week. Have a fantastic cruise and have a great time!
  9. Happy to help. Here's a link for a detailed tour. Celebrity Apex - Edge Villa Tour
  10. Yes it does. The TV drops down from the ceiling. I looked at a few videos on YouTube to get an idea of the layout.
  11. PROMO! Edge Villa Exclusive to Celebrity Edge series, these six, two-story luxury residences are the first of their kind in the fleet. In these private oceanfront villas, indoor and outdoor living is seamlessly blended. When you book The Retreat you also get a private restaurant, a lounge and a sundeck all exclusive to guests of The Retreat. From $1,300 pp $650 USD pp Note: The $1,300 is struck out in the email. I couldn't believe the starting bid either. How did you like the Sunset Suite?
  12. Your welcome. Our cruise is in early November and the email was sent to me on Wednesday.
  13. For our cruise, the minimum bid is $650 per person. It may vary by cruise. This is the first time we've done this so I'm not sure if we'll get it or not. Best of luck to you if you decide to bid on an Edge Villa.
  14. Thank you, all, very much for your input, it is greatly appreciated! I always pack earplugs to be on the safe side since we had issues in the past. We put a bid in and hopefully, it will be accepted. If not, we'll still be happy with our sky suite and will try again on a future cruise. Have a great day and happy cruising!
  15. Hello: My husband and I will sail on the APEX for TA later this year. I received an email from X noting that I can bid on an Edge Villa. We are very light/late sleepers and my concern is hearing noise while sleeping. Your input and pros/cons would be greatly appreciated for those of you who have stayed in an Edge Villa. Thank You!
  16. Hello: My husband & I will be sailing on Celebrity Beyond in January 2023. We are interested in two tours but not sure which one to select. For those of you that have done these tours, could you please provide pros/cons. Many thanks and happy cruising! __________________________________________ Puerto Plata and Cable Car Experience Overview Get acquainted with Puerto Plata's rich history and Victorian architecture at Fortaleza San Felipe and Parque Independencia after enjoying a cable car ride from the highest point on the North Coast, Mount Isabela de Torres. Highlights Ride a cable car down Pico Isabel de Torres Mountain, high above the lush forest, with stunning views of the Dominican Republic. Drive to the grounds of Fortaleza San Felipe, a Spanish fortress built in the 16th century to defend the northern coast in part from pirates seeking gold and silver, where your guide shares historical details and takes photos. Make your way to Parque Independencia to learn about the historic figures of the restoration period and see Victorian architecture and the famous cathedral. At 2,555 feet above sea-level, enjoy a guided stroll among the beautiful gardens to see a representation of a typical countryside house or "casa tipica" and take photos of the Christ the Redeemer Statue. Continue your drive with some photo stops along the Malecón, a thriving boardwalk along the Atlantic. _________________________________________________________ Monkeyland Park Adventure Overview Share an unforgettable experience for a close-up view of life from the Dominican locals to the friendly squirrel monkeys at Monkeyland. Highlights Visit a Dominican country house to discover organic products, learn native culture, and try delicious Caribbean coffee, fruits, and cocoa. Get to know the friendly squirrel monkeys at Monkeyland, the beautiful 5-acre lands they have made home and prepare to share snacks and selfies.
  17. SHIP: Summit (Nov. 2022) CABIN #: 6012 (Ocean View Accessible) DECK #: 6 CLASS: 04 AREA: Starboard, forward, over the theater BED NEAR: In the middle of the room (right side). Chair on one side, loveseat on the other side. QUIET?: Can hear the rehearsals (morning)/shows (evening) in the theater and feel the vibration from the loud music. Vibration of thrusters. If the Captain has issues docking due to high winds on the starboard side, it will sound like a helicopter landing on the helipad. Needless to say, it scared the daylights out of me when we were docking in Cozumel. BALCONY VIEW: - BALCONY SIZE: - WIND A PROBLEM?: - SOOT A PROBLEM?: - PROBLEMS/COMMENTS: We loved the size of the accessible cabin and that we were able to store our luggage under the bed. The chair in the room is wide but very uncomfortable. Good amount of storage. Only storage in the bathroom are the shelves by the sink. I packed magnets so I can hang my toiletry/cosmetic bags in the bathroom. You will feel more motion due to being in front of the ship. Not near the elevators. FYI... For those of you that need internet to check email, the connection was horrible throughout the entire ship. Even the crew complained that the connection was bad.
  18. Hi Everyone: I received an email from Celebrity this evening. This is for those sailing on the SUMMIT out of Miami tomorrow. Hope this helps. Safe travels to all of you! _______________________ ABOUT YOUR UPCOMING TRAVELS Dear Guest,   We look forward to welcoming you aboard Celebrity Summit® for your 4-Night Western Caribbean Cruise departing tomorrow, from Miami, Florida. Before you arrive to the pier, we have some important information to share with you.   Due to Tropical Storm Nicole, the Port of Miami was closed today, however, it is expected to be open tomorrow morning by 9:00AM. To make your embarkation smooth and seamless we ask that you do the following: Please do not arrive early to the terminal or within your selected arrival window. Instead, arrive one hour later. If you have not completed Online Check-in please do so. If you do not have a selected arrival time and have not completed Online Check-in we ask that you arrive after 12:00 PM. The ship is still scheduled to sail according to the original itinerary at this time, and all guests must be checked in by 3:00 PM. The weather may be questionable in the early hours and a shift south could impact arrival and driving conditions. Please drive safely and with caution. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. We can’t wait to Journey WonderFULL with you in the Caribbean. We will see you soon!   Sincerely, Celebrity Cruises
  19. Thank you everyone for your feedback, it's greatly appreciated! Happy Cruising!
  20. I'm so happy that you met Putri and Kyle. Putri is amazing and hubby/I are looking forwarded to meeting Kyle. I just sent Putri a message that both of you said hello! Thanks for the cruise wishes. Just hope Nicole doesn't delay us getting on the ship. Most importantly, just hope that everyone will be safe.
  21. Another review from Generation X!!!! 🍷 🙂I am so looking forward to reading your reviews on the BEYOND. My husband/I will be on the BEYOND in early 2023 in an ocean view accessible cabin. Hopefully, we'll have Captain Kate/Bug! We are sailing on the SUMMIT in a few weeks to see our amazing friend, Putri (Café Al Bacio Server) and her fiancée, Kyle (solo guitar player). It's a surprise and can't wait to see them. I enjoy your reviews and your enthusiasm is outstanding! Enjoy and have a great time! Hope to meet you on a future X cruise! Have a fabulous cruise! Let the party start!!!
  22. Hello: If paying in advance, is there a discount in price compared to arriving the day of debarkation? How far is the garage from Terminal G? First time cruising out of Tampa and not sure where to park. We prefer a garage compared to a parking lot. Will a porter take our luggage to the garage? Will make sure he/she gets a good tip! Many thanks and happy cruising!
