Review summary

Overall we thought we were in heaven.  We were in Aquaclass and had a classic beverage perk among other things, which made our trip special.  We did not eat in Blu all the time.  We had Select Dining in the Main Dining Room, and most of the time we liked their menu better than Blu.  However, we did eat breakfast in Blu most of our trip.  ALL the staff on this ship is wonderful and spend most of their time pampering you.  We wanted for nothing.  We came over from 10 years on Carnival, and booked our second Celebrity Cruise after 3 days.  My best advice, make a reservation and come aboard.

Cabin was very nice, but we will always go port side from now on for better views. Nice bathroom, beautiful shower. Bring some large clips (found on Amazon for beach chairs) for beach excursions and for hanging your bathing suits on the chairs on the balcony for quick drying!!

Ship tip

Be aware there are only two outlets in the cabins and they are not in the bathroom. Other than that, have a wonderful time, like we did.

@leerich So Celebrity is better than Carnival? We are Carnival cruisers but Celebrity has different destinations and longer cruises. Celebrity seems to b pricey. We are in our sixties and would love fewer kids. Thx for the review.

Hi we have booked an inside cabin for 2017, we normally sail with Princess. But we are excited about celebrity as we have heard such good things, just hope it meets our expectations. And sounds lovely like it will.
