watchdiva Posted July 8, 2008 #104 Share Posted July 8, 2008 Anca is off the Dawn now for a much deserved rest and she's thinking that her next contract may be as a floater (temporary replacements for concierge who go on vacation). She's a fantastic concierge and anyone lucky enough to sail with her are in for a treat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lil buddy Posted September 10, 2008 #108 Share Posted September 10, 2008 Anshuman is a delight and we have had him as a butler and now consierge on the Dawn. He is going home in Nov ( I think, he said ) and will be gone for about a month. We will be on the Jewel soon and I only hope that we have someone as great as Anshuman. Claudio has been gone for several months and will be missed by many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CKBBUG Posted September 10, 2008 #109 Share Posted September 10, 2008 Any idea who is replacing Anshuman on the Sun? We were on the Dawn in late August. According to Anshuman, Belkeys is the concierge on the Sun. We had Belkeys as the concierge on the Majesty last year. She is WONDERFUL :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wayneh70 Posted September 10, 2008 #111 Share Posted September 10, 2008 Virginia is on the Sky as of last week, she was great! (not that I have any comparison but we felt very well taken care of) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kathylovescruises Posted September 10, 2008 #112 Share Posted September 10, 2008 Our last round in the CV we had the "wonderful" Mr. Forbes. He treated us with complete disdain and seemed to cater to the large family from Australia in the Garden Villa. I do not know if it was because we have children, but he was rude, unresponsive and not helpful. If not for our butler we would have been really ticked!We , as well as 3 other families in the CV's,were VERY unhappy with his "service"- 2 of the families refused to give him a gratuity.:confused::confused: I am glad he has left the Jewel- hope he won't be back before our next year's Jewel cruise! We were actually concerned that he would be on our next Pearl... I mentioned CC boards to him at embarkation and he snorted and said" no one that knows anything reads that ..." then I told him that is where I had heard his name , spoken highly of! We had a pleasant conversation, but ended up doing most of our own concierging... But he is good looking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has returned to the Jewel as of August 9th. We were on our cruise from August 11th-23rd and were treated like royalty by both Alex and his assistant. He went above and beyond our expectations as he also did on our last cruise with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He couldn't have been nicer to us, and we were in the lowest-level penthouse suite. He is very aware of the CC boards and was at our CC meeting on the Jewel in February (where at least 6 groups of us were among his PH and owners' suite people). I'm completely flabbergasted by your post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OceanDreaming2 Posted September 11, 2008 #116 Share Posted September 11, 2008 Alex was more than kind to us - and we were in a lowly balcony and our friends in an OV. The post bashing him just doesn't sound right. :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kathylovescruises Posted September 11, 2008 #117 Share Posted September 11, 2008 :confused: I am not 'Bashing" Alex- I am telling you our experience with him. He was not helpful to us and was curt. My husband and I were both shocked, as we had never had any concierge treat us like this- didn't realize that I wasn't allowed to share my experience without being accused of "bashing"..

parkey Posted September 11, 2008 #118 Share Posted September 11, 2008 Does anyone know what ship Ruth is on. We met her on the Sky in 2002 ( I think). She was great we even had dinner with her one night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JetSetJen Posted September 11, 2008 #121 Share Posted September 11, 2008 Does anyone have an e-mail address for Alex? We are going to be in the GV on a TA that departs next week, and 3 of us are travel writers -- we wanted to give him the "heads up" because we would really love to interview some of the chefs, sommeliers, and the spa director and possibly get some behind the scenes tours. My grandmother who is also going on this trip sailed on the Jewel and had Alex as a concierge before - she says he is simply the best that there is. (and good looking to boot!)

JetSetJen: Alex gave me his email address so that I could give it to a good friend who was going to cruise with him later. I have emailed Alex to ask if it is okay to give it to you. Email me (address in signature), and when I hear from him, I will let you know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
