Review summary

14 Night South East Asia Immersion Hong Kong to Singapore: Hong Kong Hong Kong At Sea Hanoi (Halong Bay) Hanoi (Halong Bay) Hue/Danang(Chan May) At Sea Ho Chi Minh(Phu My) At Sea Bangkok/Laemchabang Bangkok/Laemchabang At Sea At Sea Singapore Singapore I’ve cruised 21 times and this was my first cruise with Celebrity. I was a bit concerned after reading all the previous reviews however I was pleasantly surprised. Yes this is one of the oldest Celebrity ships in the fleet however it is very tastefully decorated and well maintained. Embarkation was smooth and I was greeted with a glass of bubbly. I have to say the service from every level of staff on this ship has to be the best I have ever had – amazing. A special call out goes to the staff at the Martini Bar who really are exceptional.(Performers more than waiters). The Martini Bar really was the “happening place” on the ship and a couple of nights I enjoyed the silent disco. Passengers are provided with headphones and select their preferred era of dance music – you then dance away to your own beat – absolutely hilarious fun. The cruise director Steve was also one of the best I’ve come across. He was very visible but not over the top. I don't usually go to the shows however I did get to a few of the guest performers and these were great and I would say better than average for a cruise. I mainly ate in the main dining room and the food was also, on a whole, above average. Had a terrific time with a great group of people from around the globe: 10% Aussies, 20% Americans, 15% Canadian and 15% from the UK. The destinations were incredible, especially Halong Bay and Hoi An. Having overnights in a couple of the destinations also meant you could experience more in these amazing places.
