Review summary

mediocre type cruise...2 small pools...1 was only 3' for the kiddies..the other small pool only 6'..

not enough outdoor dancing/music...food in main cafeteria was just 'ok'.

dining room food was not 5 star culinary...many dishes had much to be desired.

most important...my husband suffered abuse from another celebrity cruise guest, and matters were not taken seriously by Hotel Director, security officers lacked supervision during this time.

we were told by Christophe Belaubre that he did not have 3,000 security officers to protect the 3,000 guests....but this was not the best thing to say on his part....there should have been adequate supervision during the early morning tender ticketing that caused another Celebrity guest to be upset at having to wait long period and cutting in front of line..to front of my husband who was 1st in line. pushing him to the side, and finally released his anger by punching my husband in the face causing a 2-3 inch crack opening his skin under his right eye/over his cheek, bleeding all over the floor, probably required stitches that were not given..just put together back with tape..i have photos...i have requested to preserve the surveillance video and send to me, along with all witness reports that others wanted the abuser off the ship, he was a threat at this point !

we were robbed in our hotel lobby...not enough supervision, as we were checking in, bags were stolen, it is on surveillance video, apparently this happens too often, even police don't take it too seriously as we filed a report at police station and there was a line of visitors with same issues....very sad ! :(

Spain has a 25% unemployment rate.  It is known for pick pockets and muggings. When you travel outside the USA things are different.

Sorry your cruise did not go well.   Best hopes that your next vacation is all you want it to be.
