Review summary

Great cruise spending full days in ports so no rushing. Food excellent and lovely winding down with entertainment at night. Very comfortable bed and room steward was excellent.

Embarkation

3 out of 5
They should have advised more clearly that the embarkation port was 3 hours outside Venice. Once we could finally find out about transfers, they were not listed on the Celebrity website, they should have provided clearer instructions to catch the bus “at the people mover.” Also, the emergency phone number for the transport company was not operational.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
We only ate in the main dining room as the specialty restaurants were quite an upcharge. The buffet was very nice as well for lunch or snacks.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
We used the pool on our day at sea and it was nice because it didn’t seem overcrowded like large cruises I’ve been on before. Didn’t care for the solarium as I thought it would be peaceful and quiet but wasn’t.

Entertainment

3 out of 5
Entertainment was fine with plenty of variety and the cruise director, Sue was very engaging.

Children's Programs

No kids

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
The design was great. Wonderful signage and directions. All areas always clean and varied designed bars for lots of variety.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5
It definitely needs updating. Very old and worn and really needs usb or plugs by bed for charging phones etc. No outlet in bathroom for shaving or blow drying hair. Did love balcony.

Ship tip

Stay mid ship as then it’s easy to get to anything.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Very organized except they shouldn’t have you wait in theatre cuz then the whole group has to get down at once and elevators were packed. Better to wait in common areas.
