Review summary

This was our first experience on a Celebrity cruise ship - we will definitely sail on the Celebrity line in the near future. All of the staff does their utmost to make you feel like a "celebrity"!

Embarkation

5 out of 5
It was quick - we were on the ship in 15 minutes.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
The buffet had many food choices. The main dining room had a professional staff & the food/drink choices were great.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
The Solarium was great - 2 whirlpool spas & a wave pool - you had to be 18 or older for access. There were also spas & a pool for all ages.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
The Equinox Orchestra was phenomenal. Jesse Hamilton Jr's performance was beyond excellent. The other bands/singers had folks up & dancing.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Room steward, photographers, buffet & dinner staffs were very professional & ensured our needs were met.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
It is a large ship - a lot to maneuver at first. All common areas were clean & well-maintained.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Our cabin was great - we especially enjoyed the shower, as it had glass door closures. The bathroom had a lot of storage areas.

Ship tip

Bring nice dress clothes, as the main dining room has a dress code.

Ports of call

Key West, Florida

5 out of 5
We did the train ride around Key West - the port is on a military base.

Costa Maya (Mahahual), Mexico

5 out of 5
We did the Mayan Healing ritual - will definitely do this again. You will have a LONG walk from the ship to the actual port.

Cozumel, Mexico

4 out of 5
The port has a lot of shopping/eating venues. It was rainy & chilly so our beach tour was not too great. The sea had seaweed as well.

George Town, Grand Cayman

5 out of 5
You will take a ferry from the ship to the port. Due to weather conditions, we had to go to another port on the island & our 7 Mile Beach tour was canceled. The jewelry shops have great deals.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
We were off the ship & through customs in less than 30 minutes.
