Review summary

Positives:  beautiful  BIG ship, 1041 feet(length). Inside cabin is modern & spacias. Enjoyed a nice breakfast in the Moonlight Sonata, however their breakfast ends @9am in port & 9:30am sea days. Ridiculous!  Breakfast, lunch & dinner buffet in the Oceanview Cafe was "ok."Cabin steward was very nice; excellent service.  Good itinerary with one overnight in Curaçao. Disembarkment was "excellent."

Negatives: Worst embarkation ever!....many closed windows. NO seats!  Stood in line for 2 1/2 hours!!! Unacceptable. Dinner menu was terrible. No comfort food items. I slipped on the tile floor in the Oceanview Cafe...I reported it. Nobody ever followed up. Horrible customer relations! Spa & men's sauna closes @8pm. Absurd!  Crowd was much older & snooty. Low energy. No comedy shows. Entertainment was not my cup of tea. 

 

I do NOT recommend this cruise line for people under 50!  Expect terrible customer relations too. 😒😤👎👎👎👎👎 Don't waste your money...pay restaurants are grossly overpriced. So overpriced that they had to discount them by 30%. They did this several times too!  Casino was dead; like a morgue!  They waived the 5% fee (a few times)if you wanted to buy chips on your shipboard account!!!

Ship tip

Not for people UNDER 50/55! Do not waste your money. I just happen to catch a great deal. However, looking back in retrospect, I would have been better off paying more. Celebrity is NOT for me.
