DJ a bit loud at the pool area.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Live shows very good, Celebrity live orchestra adds to the performances.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Stateroom steward refreshed the room several times daily and always perfect. Dining room waiters very attentive and helpful.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
Common areas were cleaned and sanitized continuously. Oceanview buffet configured in an odd design.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Cabin always clean and neat, typical size room and balcony. Very good location, center ship near stairwell and elevator on opposite side of ship.

Ship tip

Bring your motion sickness meds if that's an issue, don't think this ship has the new style stabilizers

Ports of call

George Town, Grand Cayman

3 out of 5
Seems like every cruise stops here, walked around a bit then back to ship.

Cartagena, Colombia

5 out of 5
Overnight. Fun excursion to private island day 1 and deluxe city tour day 2. Lots to see and shop in the old city. Possibly the BEST port facility in the Caribbean, there is a zoo at the port.

Colon, Panama

5 out of 5
Tour of the Panama canal and lock, followed by tour of old city Panama City. Great visit.

Puerto Limon, Costa Rica

3 out of 5
Excursion got canceled, so walked around the port then back to ship.

Cozumel, Mexico

3 out of 5
Excursion to Mayan ruins ok, ruins interesting but remainder of tour so-so.

Disembarkation

1 out of 5
Terrible !!! 2 or 3 customs/immigration staff to process over 1800 guests. Slow, hot, stuffy. And Celebrity pushed too many in a final crush to empty the ship. Horrible port for return.
