Review summary

We will do Celebrity again. Comments from other cruisers helped us to take advantage of the amenities and ports. This was a President's cruise - we had a chance to do a Q&A with her - she is amazing and will make you a believer in her vision for Celebrity. I expected service to be excellent with her on board but people said it was as good as it always is - a tribute to the high standards she is setting.

Service, food, service, room, service, amenities, service, entertainment, service, bars and service were all wonderful. Did I mention how good the service was?

Their on-board talent and musicians were tops.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
In today's day of prepaid gratuities, these people still hustle and offer excellent service. Memorable experiences were plenty.

Classy

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Size was normal. Balcony on the port side was fine. Bathroom was actually bigger that expected. Plenty of storage once we figured out the bolsters above the bed opened! (long time since dorm life)

Ship tip

We chose Concierge Class along with the upgrade to Premium drinks. Really worthwhile on both counts. We might try Aqua Class next time.
