Review summary

You will not be disappointed in picking Celebrity.

Embarkation

4 out of 5
For some reason even though we were in a concierge cabin, we were put in a line that took a little longer to get through. Still, the process was fairly smooth. I encourage anyone wanting to get through this quicker always do the online check-in before.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
I cannot say enough about the service as well as the food. We found that the main dining room was incredible. More. Than enough choices every night that were fantastic and our waiters were very personable and wonderful.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
We played bocce on the lawn, and watched the glass blowing. The silent disco night was extremely fun! The cruise director, Dan was out in front always and made everything fun.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
The shows were very good. This is a good mid-level entertainment. Not direct from Broadway , but not the high school drama club. The entertainers were extremely talented and put on a good show.people are

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Our concierge was great. This is the first time we took advantage of his service for our trip home. He helped us check in early for our flight and told us where to be so that we could be off the ship quickly. Our wait staff in the main dining room were fantastic. Toys, a good cruise director is always out in front and Dan was outstanding in getting the party started and alive!

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
People are slobs and the staff did a great job at keeping clean towels in stock, empty dishes and bottles cleaned up and tables washed, ready for the next group. The ship is easy to get around and has a good flow to it.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
The cabin was nice. Not too small for two people with enough storage for 8 days. Room 2144 is a concierge cabin on the starboard side almost at the end. It was quiet even though it was almost under the aft cafe.....we never heard one scraping chair. We have never been as far to the rear as we were with this cabin and there was more of a rocking motion than at the front...(not a problem for us, but it might be for others). I recommend the ordering a continental breakfast to eat on your balcony at least once.

Nice ship, great staff and good service. You will not be disappointed.

Not a great port. You get tendered in and there is nothing past the few shops that were open.

Nassau, Bahamas

4 out of 5
We have been to Nassau many times before. This time we located a brewery in the downtown...Pirate Brewery. A good place to chill and have a pint.

We were able to get from Miami to Ft. Lauderdale in time for our early flight by being at the doors at 630am. Quick trip thru customs
