BEYOND is a beautiful ship, clean cabin, bathroom's and every nook and cranny around the ship, great entertainment, delicious food....and Captain Kate and "Bug"! What more do you need or want?
Embarkation
5 out of 5
Very fast, we were in the comfortable waiting hall early, short wait and then after a quick talk with immigrations, on the ship in less than 45 minutes!
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
Delicious foods in the MDR...we decided not to change from our assign Cyprus MDR table for the week but our waiter just brought us the other restaurants menus, so we got a chance to sample from all. PLENTY of great bars, big and small, so you should have no issue with that....but get there early if you can, especially if an "event" is going on! The Oceanview Cafe always had a great selection of food and plenty of tables, if you look on the fringes of the room...go get the PIZZA...thin crust, fresh and delicious!
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
Only went to the Solarium pool, just exactly what "adults" want...no kids and calm! Again...get there EARLY if you want a seat in the shade!
Entertainment
5 out of 5
BEST we've seen in 10 cruises! Matt Johnson (magician), was terrific, STILL trying to figure out things he did. If REBEL (three man rock group) is playing....definitely see them, they are GREAT! All the shows in the Theater and at Eden were great and the performers were very talented!
Children's Programs
No kids on this cruise!
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Simply put, tremendous! From our cabin steward to our waiter and assist. waiter and EVERY employee on the ship, we were made to feel welcomed! Our room was immaculate and every thing we could have wanted from our table staff was provided before we even had to ask!
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
BEYOND is a DREAM! Only two years old so everything is clean and put together well. If you don't love this ship, it's YOUR FAULT!
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
Just right for an inside cabin and all we needed! Kept immaculate by our cabin steward! Plenty of storage space crammed into this room, which makes it a little tricky to access the clothes closet but we managed.
Ship tip
Oh that is an easy one....by all means, go see Captain Kate's "talk" about her becoming a cruise ship captain, or her book signing or go see "Bug Naked" trivia about her cat....but GO SEE HER! She is the reason we went on BEYOND and were so glad we got to meet her! Have never met a more outgoing, friendly and "down to earth" captain on ANY cruise ship we've taken. She was even down in the dembakation hall saying good by to the passengers getting off, taking pictures...etc. She is a goldmine to Celebrity!
Took a "snorkeling" cruise to the Marine Park and Klien Island...it was nice but if you really want to see fish....you may have to take one that does not go to these places? Somewhat protected environment? On second though...probably should have seen the salt flats and/or flamingoes.
Simple wait, timely exit, luggage pickup was quick and immigration was also quick...a breeze. Throw in seeing Captain Kate in the hall saying good bye to the passengers...PRICELESS!
I wish I had been on it that week. Things were a lot different 10/13 sailing. We had bad weather, missed port sick capitan, therefore no BUG, etc. Just my luck😒
We were on it in April and it was great.
