Review summary

This was cruise #12 for me and the other 11 have all been on Royal Caribbean. I thought since Celebrity was owned by RCCl, that it should be a comparable cruise experience. Unfortunately,  it was not. The rooms and ship in general were not as clean, the food was good, but not on the same level as RCCL. I have always looked forward to quality entertainment, however we left after about 20 minutes of each nightly show beginning. The ships "production staff" reminded us of attending a high school musical. There were very few things to do on board during "at sea" days, and any on board shopping wishes were dashed with very high prices. We had a good time, but we went for the sole purpose of relaxing and not really wanting for a lot to do, but we will definately stick with RCCL from now on!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
The specialty dining experiences were very good, however the main dining room menu was not as good as other cruises.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
Small pool, and resrtictive smoking policies forced us to sit in smoking areas when we use electronic cigaretts.

Entertainment

1 out of 5
Hig School musical quality, and other entertainers that were brought on seemed as if they would rather be somewhere else.

Children's Programs

N/A

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
The staff were all very friendly and helpful, and especially the dining staff in both the main dining room, as well as in the specialty resturants.

Ship Quality

3 out of 5
Nice, and somewhat elegant, but not as clean as expected.

Ports of call

Cozumel, Mexico

1 out of 5
Dirty, noisey and too many high pressure trinket sales people between the ship and town. Felt we were running the gauntlet to get to town.
