clairebearinaus Posted 13 hours ago #26 Share Posted 13 hours ago Kids on cruises don't really bother me, until I fancy a dip in an outdoor hot tub of an evening, to relax and watch the stars. Only to find they're all absolutely bursting with splashing, diving, squealing children. (Goodness knows what kind of eye and ear infections they end up with from sticking their heads under that water!) So I'd settle for half of the hot tubs being adults only - and properly policed by the staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being pale and pasty I'd hate to think of how many bottles of block-out I'd have to slather on for sun protection. I've worked hard for this ghostly white look, it's either that or looking like a boiled lobster.😀 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laslomas Posted 6 hours ago #30 Share Posted 6 hours ago I would love to be able to book a cruise on Celebrity, sailing from the UK, in July or August when it is the best weather. But due to the UK summer holidays I have always avoided this time as the ships are sailing at capacity with a large number of children. P & O have adult-only ships which they manage to keep sailing constantly, but I really much prefer Celebrity, so it is a 'Yes' vote from me.

Same idea for the Solarium..with limited family hrs (but not to include children using the hot tubs.) They could put in a small spray park on a upper deck to cool off kiddies! on somd ships they had kiddie pools but took them out! BUT NOT IN FAVOR IN ADULT ONLY CRUISES ON X, as previously stated.

Cruise a holic Posted 4 hours ago #32 Share Posted 4 hours ago (edited) It would be great to have that option. On our last Royal cruise we were in a suite. Went to the suite dining room and a couple had their twins their nightly for dinner. One was always crying loudly and the parents just ignored. Happened many nights. I think that the considerate thing would be to take the child out of the dining room and order room service, or get food from the buffet- the screaming upset many people who were trying to enjoy their dinner. So an adult only cruise would be a great option. That is why Virgin Voyages is becoming popular. Edited 4 hours ago by Cruise a holic 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iamcruzin Posted 1 hour ago #34 Share Posted 1 hour ago (edited) If everything stayed the same, the price and itinerary was right I would definitely book an adult only cruise. Even when my kids were school age we pulled them out of school for a week in may just to avoid spring break and summer vacation time. I have a mediterranean cruise booked for mid May 2026 on Princess hoping to avoid to avoid a lot of kids and summer tourists.

Royal has been one of my 3 go to lines with Celebrity and Princess being the other two. I know what I'm signing up for when I sail with Royal. With that said I don't sail on anything larger than an Anthem class ship. I'm not trying to walk 3 football fields to get someplace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy planning mom Posted 5 minutes ago #36 Share Posted 5 minutes ago If Celebrity were to offer such a sailing, it would most likely not be offered during the summer but during the Fall. Why would Celebrity want to turn off families during the summer? I don't mind kids either but agree Celebrity is not the best for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
