Review summary

Overall a great cruise with the exception of food choices for vegetarians (main dining and buffet). I appreciated the fact that the ship stopped by at Freeport to provide relief supplies to the hurricane victims.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Fast embarkation process since we had checkedIn online.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
Main Dining room - Dinner entree options were good for non-vegetarians. However for vegetarians the options were limited to one, which also was not good. When my spouse asked for something different, they were not ready but eventually 'whipped up' something.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Good fitness center experience except for 'foot-doctor' clinic (It became a sales pitch for heel support products when the test equipment did not work)

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Good stage shows with excellent singers and orchestra.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Room attendants were exceptional

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Clean and well laid-out. I liked the art pieces

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Very comfortable room and the bed was okay.

Ship tip

Focus on cruising and not 'silly' on-board entertainment

There were a lot of vegetarian options when we sailed. Unless you are a very fussy eater, you should gave been able to enjoy a great variety. Did you inform Celebrity of your diet? We went with vegans and they were catered for awesomely.

U can't expect everyone to cater to a vegetarian diet...it's not the fault of the ship because someone doesn't eat meat or fish.
