Nothing Stolen? Not Ripped Off? Nothing Crashed? Is this really a Rob Ferretti production?

awesome deviation from the normal car stuff RF! love it! i’ve been on a few really nice expensive cruises. Seems like the Ritz Carlton does it really nice but the rooms are small for the $. thanks for upload bub always fun.

I love random rob videos

290 is about the maximum number of people I ever want to be on any size boat with

Was looking at this a few days ago, I think it’s great value but my friends were less convinced. Great to see an actual review

What a beautiful ship. This is how I would want to cruise. Thanks for sharing!

Ritz should’ve paid you for this… always said I’d never go on a cruise but this I would do.

I've stayed at the Ritz Carlton Club on St Thomas a few times. Like you, I prefer land. It's in a great location across from St John. The Club rooms are like condos with 2 or 4 bedrooms, kitchens. Really cheap in off season (summer).

Ritz Carlton is one of my favourites for luxury accommodation, they have a program which allows you to buy anything you like in there hotels (Paintings, Sculptures,Linen , furniture or even the mattress) which is cool, First time seeing there cruise, looks like a much better cruise option as well (Traditional cruises are too chaotic for my liking). Great Video, Happy New Year

Great content Rob! You should do more in other lifestyle/luxury areas like this on the channel! 👍

I went on a Alaska cruise with NCL in the Haven and it’s very intimate limited amount of suites for that area. Has its own pool and jacuzzi. So you’re never going to be too many people around. Plenty of entertainment if you so desire outside the haven. It was a great experience for the $$$$. Great video by the way was thinking of trying Ritz.

Yep, not a boat person! I’d rather travel and mingle with the locals. Thanks for the review. 👍🏻😊

OMG! This is an awesome review! Thanks. I've never wanted to go on a regular cruise because it just doesn't seem like my thing. I need space and more luxury. This seems like I may like it more. I'd consider this, although I'm still not crazy about cruises. Thanks again 🥰

Cinnamon Bay on St John is the most insane beach I've ever seen in person. Can't wait to go back--haven't been to the USVI since 2015... I miss it. Glad to see this as an option; we have never done a cruise due to all of the people.

My man. That was a GREAT review for someone like me. We’re similar age, etc. I was wondering what this would be like. Thanks much

Great breakdown, thank you.

It’s very very much exactly like a cruise ship. Just less activities to do. The cabin was pretty but not higher end than a suite on Royal, Celebrity, or a Carnival Excel class ship. Looks very much like a mini cruise ship so I really like it! Thanks for the tour!

I give you kudos for trying to cruise when you didn’t think you would like it. Great review . I think you kinda like cruising a little bit lol. You might actually like a regular cruise more than you think.

St John’s is nice. Ritz Carlton also has same size boat but the passengers onboard actually live on board and travel the world!

You should really go on a Royal Caribbean cruise, it’s on another level.

good looks on showing us this

Thanks for the review!

A nice in-between option for going on a boat. Ritz Carlton do thing well.

Thank you for sharing!! Was looking for a honeymoon cruise but this looks boring. Icon of the Seas it is!

This looks very nice but for the money you could go on a MSC cruise and go in the yacht clubs, which is like a boutique hotel inside a big cruise ship, exclusive pool, hottub, concierge, private dining and premium spirits all included, plus a larger cabin and a spa pass included and you’ll have $2-3k to save/spend on excursions

Thanks Rob, nice detour! I’ve always had my eye on The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection and I think I’ll give them a try now! In college I worked at Ritz-Carlton parking cars and along with Residence Inn they’ve been my go-to hotel when traveling. Both are part of the Marriott group, where I also worked as a lifeguard early on. Disclaimer: I owned

Been there, we took a pic of our Carnival cruise ship parked next to the Disney cruise ship in the Bahamas. yeah.. it's kinda sad.

I'm not a boat guy either, but this sure does look nice. I did a Disney cruise as a teenager. Loved it, but not in a rush to cruise again unless the circumstances are correct like your situation. I love being on my own kayak though 🤣

Thank you, well said.

Excellent summary. I prefer micro cruises, primarily because of the smaller ports-of-call.

I’ve been on five cruises now. Royal and Celebrity. I’ve always wondered about the Ritz Carlton. Their base cabin is the equivalent of a junior ocean suite on a standard higher end cruise ship with appx 3000 people. The Services is exactly the same one and cruise ship. There are people who tend to your room. Some are better than others I imagine, but we’ve never had an issue with anyone. This sounds like great value for money.

Rob, what is going on with your hair transplant? I don't see any extra thickness and growth in the front? Do another follow up video

I have been on Evrima for 5 nights in Feb 2023. Enjoyed it so much, doing it again for 7 nights in March 2024. 298 guests MAX! No shows, no casino, no all day overhead announcements, no roving photographer, to name a few things. Sit back, relax and enjoy the Ritz Water! The food is fantastic. Service top notch. We stayed in a Signature Suite, plenty of space. Nespresso coffee makers in all suites. They will stock your in room fridge with what ever you’d like. The great thing, it’s all inclusive!

I like this video. It was dope and different!

Thanks for this video, was wondering what they offer. You literally saved me some cash, I’d rather charter a small vessel for the family and relax without all the extra people.

Our nanny told us stories about Carnival and Royal Caribbean, she loves those boats. People fight and go ahead of everybody, drink too much, and the food is buffet-style mostly. I couldn't change Silversea or The Ritz if I had to take another cruise.

why didnt u like st kits? I am curious...what makes it diff from the 2 others?

As someone not a kid person, this looked fantastic, steep$ tho

Worked as musician on cruises large and small. Italian, Brit, Hong Kong (exclusive first class) and even Russian cruise lines (also smaller) and a lot of fun. There’s fun on either but did prefer the smaller more intimate atmosphere. But with the Ritz Carlton it’s certainly a step up in design and would definitely try it out.

Good review

Cool change of pace

The boat man stays with the boat

In this video Mr Spaghetti tries the all you can eat marinara sauce and decides it’s not really his thing.

Did you bring your suitcase concept? Would make a good test run

Love it! Thank you for your review. Simply do not mention the titanic, no, no no.😂

OK we are missing a lot here. Its the other cruisers on the ship. They will probably be older, wiser, well mannered, interesting, sophisticated and other positive adjectives of class. These are not the party hard crowd. Nor will they be the crowd that tries to impress you with themselves and what they have. They don't need to do that. The conversation should flow easily with your fellow cruisers and they will be world travelers with lots of good stories and tips to exchange with you and as we found on Azamara you will probably make friends with at least one couple and our Friends are from Sydney Australia and its so nice when you have friends in far away places looking forward to seeing them and we did and had a wonderful time and have kept up our friendship. They are coming to see us later this month. Just my two cents. PS I'm like the above and I fit perfectly with them. But to be honest. Ritz is a bit too steep for us, not that we could not splurge, but we have found you will meet the same people on Azamara and other lower luxury lines as I have mentioned and other lines if you stay in the Retreats, etc. Just my two cents. So no flames, I'm tired of people taking pot shots. If you have a negative comment, please do it in the vein of a discussion rather than a diatribe or attack.

Is the tambourine for twirling like Stevie Nicks?

Hahah! Looking at you from Emerald Sakara in background at 7:38 😀

Today mr spaghetti reviews Italian food overseas

I would have spent time in the cigar bar. They had some Davidoffs stocked. Wonder how much?

Totally worth the premium for " non cruise " type people.

Great video

If you want to try a slightly bigger boat, Regent Seven Seas is a good line that is similar, but you are on a slightly bigger boat, ~700 passengers. The bigger boat means more entertainment, including a casino, and more restaurant choices. The bigger boat is slightly more stable on the water.

The reason you felt all of that rocking is because you were on a smaller boat. Lol. Great video.

San Juan, Puerto Rico, my home! 🇵🇷

Rob is it the video lighting* or is the hairline not holding up after the surgery? Otherwise the majority of the boat looks like a older crowd with like you said not much to do. Much prefer a road trip with a decent car over this.

Wow, very nice and spacious compared to what I've seen.

Cruise ships are the Walmart of the high seas.

Does seem as family oriented… would you agree? I’m curious.

Made a video so you could write off part of your vacation? 😜

What didn’t you like about St Kitts?

Was the spaghetti good?

What brand of sweater is that? Where do I get one?

It does give off the chartered yaht vibe. What Ritz doesnt understand though is most people go on a cheap cruise to get wasted and see some islands.

Rob, I want that white sand beach and clear water. My 25th anniversary is in May and I need something cool. Where do you recommend?

I am very much a boat person. I think I would love the Ilma. Unfortunately, I am not a wealthy person.

Great review. I’m not really a cruise person either. This boat is beautiful, but appears that every single couple is coupled up. I doubt there were any single women on that cruise.

I’ll show the boss. This may be an option for us. I’m not a fan of large ques.

It’s a interesting price point as you are starting to reach starting prices to charter a small yacht for 5 days-full week.

Today, Mr. Spaghetti finds a fancy floating meatball.

I’m not fond of cruises although I’ve been on some for family reunions. I don’t like being in the middle of nowhere in the ocean. Especially in turbulent water like I was between Spain and Tangier, Africa. That was 1999 and I’m still traumatized.

Today Mr Spaghetti tells us that bigger pasta is not always better

I like the slick music, nice editing Mr spaghetti! And cool content outside the usual stuff, you’re the man Rob!

In England there is a special term for the type of mustache Mr Spaghetti is sporting, but I'm not sure I can put it in a KZfaq comment.

I’ve always wanted to try to go on a yacht, but the idea of not seeing land scares me

I take that trip.

Seems fine to me.

How difficult would it be to commit insurance fraud aboard the Ritz Carlton yacht collection?

Room was adequate and the price wasn’t paid. But it seems like since there isn’t much entertainment it would be boring. You really have to go with folks who are ok with always eating, drinking and talking. As an introvert I probably wouldn’t do this type of cruise.

Bigger cruise ships you dont feel the rock at all.

Meatball goes on a cruise 😂

Cruising is awesome. Best way to travel and see the world. Sit back, have a drink and do your thing.

less people is more in your case. since you wanted to just be with your friends you probably had more fun on this yacht than on one of those massive cruises.

How about the singles scene? That's what we're all here to find out. 😇

Today Mr. Spaghetti washes his noodles with Fiji water.

Pepsi? I would have packed up and left

I’d be worried about the age group on board. I’d imagine a cruise like that is mostly filled with much older passengers and not a lot of people in their 20s-30s

How many spinach lasagna noodles did this cost? Tried to make a dollar bill reference with pasta

Nothing about the food? I mean for me that's probably one of the main reasons why I would go on a cruise like this

Whatever floats your boat.

It would be nice if they had a small little luxury gambling den (non smoking) Maybe a roulette table or two. A handful of slots. A single card table. Done

Is there a casino on the boat?

i live in a cruise tourism city and everyone who stops off the boat is...not humanity's finest example to say the least

Mr spaghetti getting the sea meat for the ball

Always go with the largest, cheapest cruise. Otherwise you’ll get bored.

Cruises are for the exact people you would think they are. All you can eat buffets and booze kinda people. Not the type of people id like to be locked on a boat with. Atleast this looked a little more classy but cruises make no sense to me.

Wouldn't bother me if it had been a hurricane. As long as its not sinking the show is worth it.

I would've rather preferred seeing the yacht itself. Not just hearing a description 😂

This is yachting? Not my idea

average age onboard?
