Review summary

Very relaxing, only about 600 people on the ship so we were pampered and spoiled more then usual. Met some great people and ate fabulous food the entire trip. We would definitely sail the Millennium again

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Ate breakfast in the buffet everyday….Eggs Benedict were cooked perfectly every day. Great cornbeef hash, fabulous omelette station. Burgers and fries at the grill were very good Main dining room was delicious. Waitstaff was attentive but not hovering

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Fabulous entertainment!! LOVED the comedian, Fred Bevill…laughed so hard I cried. Acrobatic show was amazing, reminded me of something you would see on Americas Got Talent. Broadway production show was top notch

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
No matter where you were on the ship the service was fantastic! The service around the pool was great, never needed to go to the bar to get a drink, staff was always coming by asking if we needed anything. Room steward, Peter, was wonderful! Asked for a different type of pillow because of neck problems and he accommodated me immediately…slept like a baby the entire cruise.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Ship was clean!! Everywhere you looked someone was cleaning! Public restrooms were spotless, cloth hand towels rather then paper towels was a nice touch. Pool area was clean, even the smoking area. Sunset bar area was where we ate breakfast each morning. No plates were left on the tables for any length of time after people got up….staff cleared everything and wiped down the table immediately…they had staff that came to your table to take drink orders which was nice rather then needing to goo the the bar.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
We originally booked an exterior cabin with a window (we don’t spend much time in the cabin so we feel the money can be used better elsewhere). We got to our cabins and unpacked around 1:00 (after we had lunch), then went back up to the pool area to sail away…around 4:45 we were back in the cabin and received a call asking if we would like to move to a balcony cabin. We moved and are happy we did, cabin 6073 was great! More convenient to the elevator and we enjoyed leaving the balcony door open at night to hear the sound of the ocean

Ship tip

The ship is small but great…I would do open dining or early seating if you want to catch any of the shows. I think celebrity has cut back on the entertainment on the ship because of Covid-19, typically they have 2 shows a night but now it’s only 1 show at 9pm. The shows are definitely worth seeing do dinner at 8:30 won’t work

Ports of call

Nassau, Bahamas

2 out of 5
We’ve been to Nassau at least a dozen times but this time was disappointing. So many stores were gone, lots of for rent/sale signs. I’m sure the pandemic and hurricanes recently have really hurt them in a way that some are unable to recover.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Fastest we’ve ever had!
