Review summary

Officers were professional and accessible.  The Cruise Director was annoying in that he was seemingly obsessed by his nationality (Argentinian) and his height (short).  The shows were very good and working level staff were as good as on any cruise we have been on.

I have done Celebrity's own rating. The working level staff (waiters, room stewards, and bar staff were great. The Cruise Director, Alejandro, is one of the most irritating peolpe I have ever met on a cruise. He constantly brings up his nationality (Argentinian) to the point it becomes a distraction. He almost ruined and did delay scheduled evening performances by playing stupid party games when the show was supposed to start. I will never take a cruise for which he is the Cruise Director.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

Cabin / Stateroom

Good location and well maintained.

Ship tip

The best bar is the passport Bar on Deck 3 near the Dining Room due to quality of bartenders and servers. Bacio on Deck 5 is great for coffees and teas,, especially if you have a beverage package.
