Review summary

Economical cruise travel to a number of highlight destinations in a short period of time was efficient with very easy access. We did enjoy ourselves!!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Dining times in the Opus Restaurant were confusing and waiters were rushed and hectic with a number of trainees. Attempting to establish a fine dining atmosphere but a long, long way to go. The drink card rules and regulations are also burdensome and confusing and detract again from the establishment of finer dining. Buffets were well organized and efficient.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

Pool was crowded and too noisy to relax. Numerous children on board this cruise.

Service and Staff

3 out of 5

Our room steward was good, very helpful but again parroting all the burdensome rules and regulations which I, personally have never encountered on a cruise historically. Our cruise experience has been with Crystal Cruise lines so this was quite a bit different experience for us as a first timer to the Celebrity brand. The excursion desk staff were not helpful nor pleasant nor excited about destinations.
