Who is on the Fantasy Concierge staff right now?

Last week it was Amanda, Chris & PJ.

We love PJ. We're hoping he and Tracey are on board in November.

We're sailing concierge with a family of 11 next summer. One royal suite and two one bedrooms. The trip of a lifetime. How are tips figured?

The tips for your room host and dining team are calculated as normal...$12 per person per day. Concierge staff is tipped separately...you decide on how much you tip them, and don't forget the bar tender in the lounge!

I tip the bartender well the first day. My whisky glass tends to be pretty bottomless the rest of the week.

I thought we were the only ones!! On our B2B on the Dream last year we realized that we might have tipped too well on the 1st trip...I had to have the drinks made a little less strong LOL nothing like trying to walk in 5" heals after a super strong drink (or 2)!

Are you sailing on the 7th? We are too!

Tawanda was on our cruise in late January and had his break coming up. He indicated he'd be back for my May cruise. I assume things can change, but...

We just got off this past Saturday and we had Amanda, Christopher and Tawanda all were wonderful!
Our bartender was amazing too! Very nice guy! We tipped at the end and he always made sure my glass was full and that my dh had a beer ready for him. Even if my daughter and I were stopping to grab something before we came to the gathering he would hand us a beer to give him! Lol. He even made my kids so fun 'fake' drinks.

Yes we are on the 7 May cruise. We have pre tipped the bartender for years. You never want to run dry. Our favorite place on earth. We are set again for Dec 3rd and the 2017 11 day southern Caribbean.

Amanda, Christopher, Tawanda on the 4/16 to 4/23 Fantasy. All fantastic - but we've never had a concierge host we didn't love. Chris from the Philippines was our bartender, and we loved him so much. He knew our favorite drinks, made our teen son fun drinks of his own, and surprised us with his "drink of the day" cocktail each day. Virgilio and Devina were the food service hosts, and they were also very friendly and we enjoyed their company. We tipped everyone, and this is the first time we have felt compelled to even tip the service hosts - they were that wonderful.

How fun. I will be there with my 3 year old son. We'll see you in the lounge. We are also booked in March on the Fantasy and June on the dream I'm wondering if I can give up the 1 bedrooms for a more cost saving approach. But now we spend a lot of time in the cabin.

Devina was wonderful in January!!! I have a food allergy and she was outstanding! I hope she's still on!

Can we order lunch off a menu for room service in our cabins (1br) or just the stnd room service menu like you can for dinner?

 

[Skiton]

We had PJ, Amanda, and Tawanda. We loved PJ and Amanda. I think Tawanda was close to his break and more than ready for it, because you could tell he was sort of half-in, half-out.

We had Tawanda and Amanda they are great. Never hand Christopher.

For other poster, Tawanda is the supervisor and gets very busy if she needs to train someone up

You might be thinking of Kimesha. Because Tawanda is male.

Yes, Tawanda is male. I think the other poster is thinking of Kimesha, who I mixed up with Amanda, because we didn't have Amanda, we had Kimesha (who was lovely). Could I make this any more confusing?

 

[jlemieu1]

You are correct, sorry my bad. I got the two names switched
