The EDGE is a different experience in cruising. Try it.
Embarkation
5 out of 5
We requested a wheelchair for my wife for embarkation and disembarkation. Celebrity made this an easy experience, with the chair and "pusher" available before we got in the building.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
The 12 of us ate at the Cosmopolitan each night (except for one night when they scheduled us wrong). Some had planned to go to a specialty restaurant, but the food and service was so good at the Cosmopolitan that we stuck with it. Winosta was our waiter, and he was the best we have had in some 20+ cruises.
The offerings on the menus--and most food at the cafeteria--are labelled as to gluten, vegetarian, etc. We really appreciated this, especially in the cafeteria.
Onboard Activities
4 out of 5
Did not use on-board activities. I wish there was a game room and/or a library. We played cards in the cafeteria but were chased away once because diners needed the table.
Entertainment
4 out of 5
This, I think, is the weakest part of the Celebrity experience. No piano bar. No regular comedians like Norwegian and Carnival have. There were two comedy shows in the large theater, but no room dedicated to comedy.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
The room steward did an excellent job and learned quickly when we would be out of the room.
The highlight of service, however, was the waiter Winosta in the Cosmopolitan restaurant. Two of our group of 12 have dietary restrictions, and he helped us with knowledgeable advice.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
I like the design, especially the track. I run/walk most mornings, and the two-deck figure 8 track is excellent. Imagine hills on a cruise ship track!! My GPS says that it is 0.20 miles around.
I like the fact that one does not need to pass through the casino to get from one end of the ship to the other.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
The EDGE may have the largest oceanview cabins on a large cruise ship. The bathrooms, and particularly the showers, are actually people-size. Plenty of storage.
I would recommend that you consider a room with the bed nearer the window. rather than near the "closet" to make access to the closet easier. On the other hand, if you want to sit on the couch and look out the window, . . . ..
We have been there before and learned a lot during a visit to the ruins. On this trip we were unable to go to Costa Maya because of some kind of union troubles there.
