Celebrity Edge

7 Night Western Caribbean (Ft. Lauderdale Roundtrip)

Sail date: March 31, 2019

Ship: Celebrity Edge

Cabin type: Balcony

Cabin number: 6116

Traveled as: Couple

Reviewed: 5 years ago

Review summary

90 percent of the people were 65+, and we have been on ships with older people and have had a much better time. I just am not sure how Celebrity got so many things wrong with this ship. Fortunately my kids did not sail with us, I think they would have been bored.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
The food in the main dining room was okay, nothing special, very limited menu, do to the set up of having 4 dining rooms. I have had better food on other Celebrity ships, food was good at the buffet

Onboard Activities

2 out of 5
trivia was good now that they went back to paper, did not like deal or no deal, not a lot of activities. The shops were very very expensive, hard time trying to spend on board credit, no post cards, Christmas ornament of the ship, magnets, no reasonably priced tee shirts.

Entertainment

2 out of 5
The shows were not good, we had good comedians, and the acrobats that were added 2 weeks ago due to the entertainment were fantastic

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
The service was good & the staff was polite

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
The ship was beautiful, looked like a luxury hotel, the ship was clean, the ship has no shade areas at the pool, lots and lots of uncomfortable seating on the ship

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Our room was changed to cabin #9122, room #6116 has an obstructed view overlooking the water, did not like the infinite veranda, if you opened the window the air condition shut off and the room filled with humidity almost instantly, they also locked the windows at times, we woke up at 3:00 a.m. due to someone close to our room opening the window, prefer a regular balcony, after you used the shower water all over the bathroom floor, shower head fell down after the water was shut off. The closet for long dresses was very limited and had a lower bar in the closet which did not fold up

Ship tip

We have always had a fantastic time on Celebrity, they certainly missed the mark on this ship. I would not book the Edge or the Apex which is its sister ship.
