Not much to do except enjoy the pools

Entertainment

2 out of 5
Very poor entertainment which did not cater for all age groups. Resident female singer was awful. Also disappointed at leaving as no Caribbean music or cocktails being served unless u asked could have been more of a party atmosphere. The only decent shows on board was uptown & motown singer

Children's Programs

No children

Service and Staff

I don’t believe that Celebrity is known to have a party vibe. I believe that is more with Carnival from our experience. We found while Celebrity is nice, it is definitely more on the low key side. There are so many variables though...has a lot to do with who is on your cruise. I am sure that the length and time of year contribute to that.
