Review summary

Favorite part was the cooperation of the weather.  Just beautiful our whole trip. Along with the friendliness of ALL staff members.  I did not pass one crew member that didnt say Good morning, hello, hi, a nod whatever.  And yes, the food especially at the Ocean View Buffet was just tremendous.  But everything served should be labeled.  Not everything was to determine what the dishes were.  There were not enough servers on the decks when sitting in lounge chairs on 15, and indoor pool area.  We had to get up to get our drinks which made the bars full and lengthy in time getting our drinks.  the picture prices are quite high.  Im sure there is more waste in trash of pictures than bought.  I bought two only and I didnt even get a cardboard holder for my prints to keep them safe in packing and now storage with the celebrity cruise on the folder.  Carnival does that!!  I even asked for one.  The guys said sorry.  Keep in mind we have to travel home.  We dont want those expensive pictures bent up in our luggage as the folders would protect them better than plastic.  The shops werent that overwhelming to me.  Very high-end in fact too much high end, too many watches!!  The green areas to me was much wasted space.  Additional pool would be nice.  seems like more bartenders are needed at all bars!  Waiting time was too much at different bars!  Also you sell Rum Chata at the duty station on the ship BUT you do not serve or sell at ANY bars at all.  ??? Nice pm drink to have.  YES, I would extremely recommend this ship to anyone I speak to....I already have!!!  Beautiful ship!  All the crew...EXCELLENT!

Service and Staff

Nur Cipta. Very professional, nice smile to see everyday. Very helpful. Customer Relations got an excursion for me late. Their system was down and he (wish I had his name) guaranteed me that I would get it and would deliver my tickets that nite. They were with a message on the phone. Thanks!

Ship Quality

Very each to roam. Love the elevators! very smooth and always at your need. Also loved the Today papers everyday. I had one with me always. BUT need to keep them in quantity at the Customer Relations stand. I had to wait for a bit when it was empty for them to refill.

Hats off to Nur Cipta!!! Very professional and hard worker! He kept our cabin spotless and equipped every morning and evening! Nice to see his smiling face everday! Cabin nice, clean, and i felt the big bed was very very comfortable. I slept like a baby!

Ship tip

I believe we set sail from the Sunset Bar and we actually ended it there also, saying this is where it all started! Enjoyed all the outside bars. Go to the hamburgers, hot dogs and fries lounge. Oh very yummy! with all the fixins! The only tip I would give is to enjoy the whole ship!

Ports of call

Miami, Florida

San Juan, Puerto Rico

walked all around. Fun! But a little too late to come into port at 3:00ish. The buses stop running, we had to beat feet up the hills to the fort. Whew! But it was nice to see at night, the ship all lit up beautifully. And ate at night too atone of the restaurants in San Juan.

I honestly enjoyed this vessel as well. She's such a beauty. Enjoyed everything on board and at one point I didn't want to get off to do my excursions. Love your review

How expensive are the pictures? Will be on the Reflection in about a month (for an anniversary) and will want to buy pictures. Thanks!
