Nursing home at sea? sounds like my type of cruise. I'm in my 30's but I'd rather have a nice chill vacation hanging out with the elderly than deal with the raucous drunk spring break crowd. Thanks for another great vlog.
My wife and I celebrated our honeymoon on the Solstice in 2010 and we loved it. After that the Eclipse 2011, Reflection 2012, Solstice and Silhouette in 2015. Apex last year and next month on the Reflection. We prefer nice and quiet cruise ship like the Solstice class. The elders always sharing their cruises experience with us. Yes this is my type of cruise.
Hi @leols! We really enjoyed our time on the Reflection too! We will be on the Ascent and Apex soon. We really enjoy Celebrity as well. Thanks for watching!☺️
I have taken one Celebrity cruise, and I have booked 2 more this summer. My husband loves Celebrity, while I love Royal! Yes, Celebrity is majority older people, and you will be moving to the side a lot for scooters, and the vibe and the music are older. I did feel out of place at times, but I simply ignored it, and reminded myself I am on vacation! Even the food was just ok to me, I love Royal dinning room food. We enjoyed the peace, really no kids, no chair hogging and the overall relaxed vibe, this is why we are going again. Like I said, I love Royal, but just know what to expect with Celebrity.
I like the idea of a breakfast dress. I do normally wear something different for breakfast too, but one outfut👍🏾 We've never cruised Celebrity b4 I'll have to put on my list of new cruise lines to try. Thanks for sharing ✌🏾 😊
Y'all are from Baltimore? Saw the Orioles hat. I've been gone from Charm City since '87 but I miss talking to good folks like yourselves. We are going on the Reflection in June and looking for a chill experience.
Thank you so much for sharing!!! I want to book a Celebrity Cruise, but first wanted to get perspective from an African American . This is not to be negative, but I want to feel comfortable before taking a kinda lengthy cruise. Looks like you had a great time!❤❤❤
Hi @maesams! You’re welcome. And we understand. We had an amazing cruise and are going on a future Celebrity cruise soon. If you are sailing Celebrity, we feel you will enjoy it, especially the Edge class ships (check out our Celebrity Beyond vlog series). We appreciate you watching!😁
We just did a cruise from Puerto Rico around the West Indies in the Caribbean on The Norwegian Viva that was a niceeee ship the speedway on deck 17 was amazing!!!
I loved when that we didn’t make it to Scotland and went back to Dublin and got to get off and on the ship as much as we liked to explore the city and got to stay on the ship as our hotel in Dublin
Hi @ScottLara! You’re on to something with that one!🤣 We have sailed HA, but for a chartered jazz cruise and during those sailings, it was anything but! 😄Check out our vlog series on those cruises if you’re interested. Thanks so much for watching!☺️
Hi @sharondalynnewton! We enjoyed the Beyond as well! We took a cruise on HAL, but it was a themed cruise and it was definitely NOT a nursing home at sea!🤣 We appreciate you watching!☺️
Hi @diquecannon! Yes, you have the option to eat at the buffet or main dining room, which are included in the cruise cost. Any speciality restaurant (ex. Steakhouse) is at an additional cost. Hope this helps and thanks for watching!☺️
My wife and I were on the Reflection the same week as the two of you. I have to admit we enjoyed our experience a bit better than you. I do agree it was an older crowd with very few children but was a really chill, relaxed cruise which I enjoy. Keep the content coming!
I’ve taken one Celebrity cruise. You will be well rested it is a calm and quiet cruise. Food was decent nothing bad to say about it. It was just too slow for me.
They sure were partying like a nursing home at sea. Lol! I'm in my 50's and looking to plan my solo cruise/treat to myself next year when I get my baby off to college. And after spending years cruising Disney and Royal I'm looking for a nursing home at sea. I just want to eat sleep and mediate.
Hi @misspenny! Sometimes a cruise calls for that kind of vibe. Thanks so much for watching and enjoy your “nursing home at sea” cruise when it happens!😂☺️
@andrewjanuary4996 I don’t remember the exact price, but they sent us an email offer for an upgrade to premium for around an additional $200 after we purchased the lower cost drink package. Hope this helps and thanks for watching!😊
Royal’s Adventure of the Sea was definitely a senior citizen facility. I will not be returning with them anytime soon. Maybe just Maybe the Icon of the Seas
Hi @ebonyallen! Sorry to hear that. It’s just with some cruise ships they are, like Forrest Gump say, a box of chocolates, you never know what you’re gonna get…unfortunately 🤣. We hope your next cruise is a chocolate that you will fully enjoy. We appreciate you watching!☺️
I took my first Celebrity cruise in April on the Celebrity Beyond. I called the solarium area the geriatric area. There wew a lot of Seniors onboard. I'd say average age of 80. I was fine with that though.
I loved my time on reflection, great food amazing entertainment and beautiful ship
Hi @crystaljones! We sure did as well. We appreciate you watching!😊

Going on Celebrity Beyond in June and Reflections in July. Actually looking forward to Reflections more, it seems more peaceful, almost Zen-like.
Hi @andib! Yes, we thought Reflection was little more mellow too! Enjoy both of your cruises and thanks so much for watching!☺️

Enjoyed your video. Did you have to go to your cabin to retrieve your room keycards before going to the Muster Station?
Hi @eleanora! Yes, we retrieved our cards from outside our cabin after our muster station visit. Thanks for watching!☺️
@@qnsvlogs Thank you. Good to know. Last time we needed the keys before going to Muster.
We did this ship before Covid in 2019 from Dublin Ireland to Iceland back to Dublin for a few extra days because we couldn’t go to Scotland
We just did a cruise from Puerto Rico around the West Indies in the Caribbean on The Norwegian Viva that was a niceeee ship the speedway on deck 17 was amazing!!!
Hi @bradys1girl! Yes, we loved our cruise on the Viva as well, but the Prima does hold a spot in our 💕☺️
I loved when that we didn’t make it to Scotland and went back to Dublin and got to get off and on the ship as much as we liked to explore the city and got to stay on the ship as our hotel in Dublin
Hi @bradys1girl! Now that sounds like it was so much fun. We need to get to Ireland as well! Thanks so much for watching!☺️
Love it!!! Holland America is more of a nursing home at sea
Hi @ScottLara! You’re on to something with that one!🤣 We have sailed HA, but for a chartered jazz cruise and during those sailings, it was anything but! 😄Check out our vlog series on those cruises if you’re interested. Thanks so much for watching!☺️
I loved my cruise onboard the celebrity ascent. Definitely not a nursing home at sea. However I’ve heard this about holland America line.
Hi @sharondalynnewton! We enjoyed the Beyond as well! We took a cruise on HAL, but it was a themed cruise and it was definitely NOT a nursing home at sea!🤣 We appreciate you watching!☺️
yes... the breakfast dress, all cruise. the reflection can only get about 3-4 days out of me. im not that seasoned.
Hi @autobotdiva! 😂 Thanks so much for watching!😀
Looking forward to part 2 😊
Hi @myangelsam! Thanks for watching!☺️
Nice views
Yessss I also have a breakfast outfit..
Hi @msmich! Yes indeed!👍🏾Thanks for watching!☺️
Do you have the option to eat at the buffet or restaurants or both?
Hi @diquecannon! Yes, you have the option to eat at the buffet or main dining room, which are included in the cruise cost. Any speciality restaurant (ex. Steakhouse) is at an additional cost. Hope this helps and thanks for watching!☺️
Oh and there were a lot of motorized scooters and wheelchairs as well.
My wife and I were on the Reflection the same week as the two of you. I have to admit we enjoyed our experience a bit better than you. I do agree it was an older crowd with very few children but was a really chill, relaxed cruise which I enjoy. Keep the content coming!
Hi @mlew! Glad to hear you and your wife enjoyed your cruise on the Reflection as well. Thanks for watching!😋

Hi @symonphoenix! We enjoy our sailings on Celebrity. Thanks for watching!☺️
We will be sailing on her next July 2025. We love Royal but we're giving Celebrity a shot.
Hi @neeh.5683! We think you’ll enjoy Celebrity. We love Royal as well! Thanks so much for watching!☺️
I haven't taken Celebrity yet and wanted to know about their Sail Away Party but you didn't attend...
Hi @angrob140! Yes, we didn’t attend it either time we sailed them, sorry! We appreciate you watching!☺️
Yall didn’t do silent disco night?!!
No @bradys1girl, we were too busy up at the Sky Lounge indulging in those “Libra” drinks🤣
They sure were partying like a nursing home at sea. Lol! I'm in my 50's and looking to plan my solo cruise/treat to myself next year when I get my baby off to college. And after spending years cruising Disney and Royal I'm looking for a nursing home at sea. I just want to eat sleep and mediate.

Did you pay for your drinks 🍸 with a package or a la carte ?
Hi @diquecannon. We had the drink package. Thanks for watching!☺️
How much was the drink package?@@qnsvlogs
@andrewjanuary4996 I don’t remember the exact price, but they sent us an email offer for an upgrade to premium for around an additional $200 after we purchased the lower cost drink package. Hope this helps and thanks for watching!😊

Hi @drguy! We cruised her as well and found it very relaxing and low key, just how we like at times! Thanks for watching!☺️
The video? Just OK.
Hi @ .! Thanks for the engagement!☺️
