Review summary

First time on Celebrity, 3rd cruise overall. Loved it so much we put down a deposit for our next cruise. Would highly recommend this ship and itinerary. Many older passengers but did not impact us - except when they stopped with no warning right in front of us 😄

Embarkation

5 out of 5
10 minutes after getting out of the taxi we were putting our bags in our cabin. So many people guiding and helping..

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
No specialty dining since the 4 main dining rooms were like fine dining. Great service and great food. Buffet had lots of choice. They did reduce the food in the evening but still lots to choose from.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Swam in the solarium pool, main pool was busy all the time. Lots of games in The Club to participate in.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Loved every show we saw, huge variety, singers and dancers were top notch. Cruise director Tim and his team were very enthusiastic.

Children's Programs

No children with us.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Every single person we met and spoke with was happy to see us, enjoyed their jobs and seemed really invested in making sure we enjoyed ourselves. Our cabin attendant, Agniya, was amazing and a lovely lady.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Beautiful ship and sparkling clean.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
First time inside and was pleasantly surprised at size, lighting and comfort. Shower was great and bathroom quite roomy.

Ship tip

Explore the whole ship. Kept finding places on walks. Lunch in Eden is also extremely nice.

Ports of call

Ft. Lauderdale (Port Everglades), Florida

5 out of 5
Stayed at Riverside Hotel night before and explored the Riverwalk area and Las Olas Blvd. Very central. Would stay there again.

Philipsburg, St. Maarten

5 out of 5
Bus tour round the island, included rum tasting and cheese tasting. Open top bus not very comfortable, hard plastic seats.

Castries, St. Lucia

5 out of 5
Another bus tour, smaller more comfortable bus. Nice port.

Bridgetown, Barbados

5 out of 5
Shuttle into town and walked to beach for a quick visit. Gorgeous beach, very near Port.

St. John's, Antigua

3 out of 5
No tours, only went to Port area.

Basseterre, St. Kitts

4 out of 5
Original boat trip cancelled at short notice so went to Carambola Beach club. Disappointed at size of the beach.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Walked off with our luggage, no hold ups, straight out to a taxi.
