My daughter and I were very happy with Celebrity. Highly recommended! There are not as many activities as other ships but still lots to do. Don't bother going to shopping talk. Was a waste of time. In fact don't buy jewelry there unless you really do your homework on the pieces you're interested in.
Embarkation
5 out of 5
At first when we arrived to embark. It was mayhem. People all over traffic congestion. But when we entered the building it was efficiently running. Long lines but processing went swiftly. People assisting were very pleasant and helpful.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
We stayed in the Aqua Class. Most of our meals were in the Blu. Epic experience. Food was superb but honestly between my day and I we feel the accolades should go to the staff. Linda, Anista, Kaylia(sp?), Raymond, Budi , Sebastian, Yasir(?sp) and many many others. They went above and beyond. Ocean View was good. Ivan was so sweet, Amak was very kind too. It was very crowded at times with no place to sit. But the food was good. The ice cream in Ocean View was to die for! Oh and not to forget the Cafe al Baccio. Their desserts were heavenly. We did try Aqua Spa cafe. Delicious! Very healthy food and tasty
Onboard Activities
4 out of 5
Persian Garden was wonderful and so relaxing. Absolutely loved. We went on ports of call. Saw glass blowing show Different, very talented artists
Entertainment
3 out of 5
Pros: loved December 63, Frankie Valley group, James Stephens III, the silent disco was my favorite, salsa dancing
Cons: the bands that played in lobby and pools were mediocre at best. And no piano player in lobby! The musical shows were just okay. But acrobatic shows great. Talented people.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
See food and drink. Our steward Franciso was very good at his job. He was almost magical the way he cleaned our room. We asked for ice once and he ALWAYS remembered to give it. He was incredible!!!i wish him well. Everyone who we came in contact with was pleasant and smiling.
Ship Quality

Good layout. Very clean. People took pride in the ship. Impressive that there were even live orchids in the bathroom! Very classy ship.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
We were pleasantly surprised. Actually blown away. Aqua Class. Will always choose this class from now on. We were pampered. The balcony showed signs of wear with peeling paint on chairs but that didn't distract from the beautiful view. Every morning we ate breakfast on balcony. Glorious!!! Curtains a little dated. But that won't stop me from sailing Aqua Class again!
Ship tip
Fly into port the night before due to uncertainty with airlines. We didn't bring a power strip as many recommended and we were fine without it.
Loved Key West! We toured Hemingway's home. Tour guide was great and very knowledgeable. Sloppy Joe's is must visit. Key lime pie was delicious. Great shops too
We went to see Mayan Ruins. Larissa? I think is her name was very good. Very interesting. Shopping was not so great. My daughter purchased a ring that was fake.
We went to a resort with all inclusive beach chairs swimming etc. It was nothing special. Excursion staff led us to believe it was something that it wasn't.
