Review summary

Overall, the cruise was most enjoyable. Made even better by the ship being brand new. Everything clean and space was well accounted for throughout the ship.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Flawless. No delays and lots of people to help if you needed it.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Last minute seating in all of the four main dining rooms was possible even without reservations. Different one each night added great variety to the ding experience.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Walking track and deck chairs more than adequate.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
Entertainment was good but could be better with greater variety.

Children's Programs

No children.

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
Good but could have been a little more personable.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Really excellent.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Great design maximizing all possible space for use. Brand new and spic and span.

Ship tip

Tour the entire ship early in your cruise. So much to see. If you discover it too late you'll kick yourself.

4 out of 5
Did the "Celebrity" Wellness excursion. Very enjoyable

Cozumel, Mexico

4 out of 5
Did the "Celebrity" excursion driving Jeeps around Cozumel. Jeeps were not the "cute" ones pictured. Jeeps were very old and dilapidated. Other than that, excursion was pretty good.

George Town, Grand Cayman

3 out of 5
Took "Celebrity" excursion that included swimming with the sting rays and beach time at Calico Jacks. Sting ray experience was fantastic. Celebrity should be ashamed for calling the second half of the excursion "beach time at Calico Jacks". Beach was overcrowded and we were not allowed to use the beach chairs. We were kidnapped to Jacks to get us to buy some lunch. Shame, shame.

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
Waited on bus to airport for almost an hour.
