Tired boat in need of a refresh. Food was unimaginative, poorly labelled, and of substandard quality. Entertainment was unprofessional.

Review summary

First and last cruise with Celebrity. I prefer Royal Caribbean.

Embarkation

2 out of 5
Port of Vancouver was poorly set up to handle a small crowd of people. No Nexus lines. Took too long. Disorganized.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

2 out of 5
Poor quality. No variety. Inadequate labelling. Crew did not know the ingredients.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
Fitness centre was good, but running track was beside the smoking area.

Entertainment

3 out of 5
Onboard performances were amateurish.

Service and Staff

3 out of 5
I don't think that anyone was excited to be employed on that ship.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
The ship appeared to be clean, but this ship is due for a refresh soon, and it very dated.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
It was no better or worse than other cruise lines. The cabin appeared to be clean. Bed was comfortable.

Ship tip

Book with Royal Caribbean instead.

Since Royal Caribbean owns Celebrity, they won’t be too upset.

Actually I’ve cruised 2 Royal ships and have returned to Carnival. A much more fun cruise line, and I’m a senior citizen. Way more grab and go food options and more variety on Carnival. I totally disliked CATS on Royal. It may be Broadway, but it was awful and too long.
