Review summary

Just finished our first BtB and couldn’t be happier it was on the The Celebrity Edge ! We are both in our lower 40’s and have sailed on Royal Caribbean, Msc and 2 other celebrity S class ships and this is now our new favourite. The cabins and also the public spaces are all absolutely gorgeous. We had a sunset verandah on the back of the boat for both weeks and were very happy to have stuck with the “real” balcony as we enjoy that outdoor feeling . The rooms had so much storage we never even filled all the shelving even with 2 weeks of clothing . The bathroom was the largest and most beautifully decorated we have ever had ... the shower had plenty of room for an average size person . I had brought a makeup bag to hang on the back of the door but never needed it as lots of shelving to put my things on . We never once had a bad meal onboard . All of the MDR’s are stunning with such wonderful food and service you would think you were at a specialty restaurant! We had select dining and only once had to wait (with a pager so we could go get a drink ) for more than 10 minutes . We also enjoyed the steakhouse , raw on 5 and Le petit chef which was our favourite .. all fantastic but honestly not necessary. We enjoyed almost all of the entertainment onboard other than the Eden show . Made no sense whatsoever... which was fine for maybe half an hr ... but when it was still going after an hr we left ... just a plain waste of our precious time onboard. Also highly recommend going to the club after the main theatre show each night ... always something entertaining going on in there whether it was the silent disco or extra special acts by the onboard entertainment staff who were all so incredibly talented and beautiful ! We honestly had no idea how anyone could be bored on this ship .. we hated having to make a decision on what we wanted to do more most nights .. I know #firstworldproblems. Really feel this is the gold standard of cruising now and think it will be hard to go back to any other cruise lines or older ships for us ... Highly recommend booking the eastern carribean itinerary , or even better yet a BtB ....a sunset verandah .... and as early as possible to get the best pricing ... so glad we did ! Enjoy !!

Did a Sunset Veranda on the Equinox. That is going to be my favorite! It's like you always have the best view on board. Way worth it, but don't pass it on please!

This is the first review that I’ve read by someone that has been in a Sunset Verandah. We originally booked a infinite balcony and switched to a SV. I am so glad that we did after having read both your review and so many negative comments about the infinite balcony. Thanks for the info!
