Review summary

This was the first cruise for Celebrity after the COVID-19 shut down. The staff was super excited to be back to sailing, the captain was awesome, the entertainment was great for adults and okay for teens.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Easy to move through embarkation as long as all documents and vaccination records are in order.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
All the food was outstanding. The buffet is now served entirely by the staff which actually made it a bit quicker.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Adult activities were plentiful and organized well. Teen activities were lacking, and there was not a great selection of family activities.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
The musicians were terrific, and the variety of music was excellent. The shows in the theater were not great, and the singing talent in the shows was a bit intermittent.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
We felt welcome and the staff was friendly and professional.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
The ship is comfortable and relaxing. There is a variety of art everywhere you turn.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
The cabin is typical of a cruise ship cabin. It was clean and well maintained.

Ship tip

Know that the free wifi provided is super slow, and the paid wifi is only slightly better.

Ports of call

Ft. Lauderdale (Port Everglades), Florida

5 out of 5
Easy to get in and out of the port, although road signage is a bit lacking.

Philipsburg, St. Maarten

3 out of 5
Not much to do

Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas

3 out of 5
Not much to so

Nassau, Bahamas

5 out of 5
Lots to do and the people are great

Disembarkation

Very easy process and the port has transportation available.

I am curious if you go on one of the snorkeling excursions if the mask, snorkel and fins are provided or if you need to bring your own?
