Review summary

Our second cruise with Celebrity and thoroughly enjoyed it yet again. The quality of service and food is what has kept us with Celebrity. These EDGE class ships are as good as you can get nowadays. The process is almost always smooth for ports and embarkation/disembarkation which leaves you to just enjoy the ship and your ports in the most ideal way.

Eden, Rooftop Garden Grill, Le Voyage, and even the main buffet Oceanview Cafe were consistently great.

Onboard Activities

Pool, Solarium, and spa facilities were great. Wish the spa could be expanded upon with separate men’s & women’s areas.

Entertainment
