Review summary

Outstanding Cruise, Itinerary, & Service!!! Kudos to Celebrity & the Reflection Crew! I will most ALWAYS cruise with Celebrity, unless booking a smaller, "boutique" river cruise, or similar...

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Flawless! Celebrity Rocks!!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
We cruised Aqua Class with exclusive access to BLU restaurant and it was Excellent. We dined at Murano twice while on board and it was an awesome experience, both times!!

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
We enjoyed both pools, but especially the indoor Solarium, adults only pool. It's cooler (air conditioned) in there for those hot, sea days AND it's 16 years of age & up...

Entertainment

4 out of 5
Most shows that I attended were quite enjoyable!

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Our stateroom attendant, BENEDICT, was awesome - he couldn't have been more helpful!!! The "flair bartenders" at the Martini Bar are also amazing - Peter, Ari, Iputu, & Michael are TOP SHELF, just like their drinks!!! The overall service in BLU restaurant is incredible, from the Maitre D, to the hostess, sommelier (Allan) & our waiter, Elvin, was incomparable!!!

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Outstanding...

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Our Aqua Class balcony stateroom was perfect & those showers in Aqua Class are great for a cruise ship!

Ship tip

Go Aqua Class so you can experience great staterooms, balconies, & daily access to BLU restaurant for breakfast & lunch!

Puerto Limon, Costa Rica

5 out of 5
Fun Rain Forrest excursion, but THOSE ROADS!!! haha

Colon, Panama

5 out of 5
We had a wonderful tour of the Panama Canal (original locks) & toured the old walled city & "new town"!!! Our guide, Julian, was awesome!!

Cartagena, Colombia

5 out of 5
Also, a fun tour of the old, walled city, but the "street hawkers" are quite aggressive & annoying!!

George Town, Grand Cayman Did not visit port

FIVE cruise ships in port & you had to be tendered in on boats; didn't care to deal with the crowds!!

Cozumel, Mexico Did not visit port

Again, multiple cruise ships in port & I have been to various locations in Mexico on previous vacations!

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Basically walked right off the ship & through immigration! We took advantage of the express valet luggage transfer service offered by Celebrity. Once we placed our luggage outside our stateroom the night before disembarkation, we didn't have to deal with it again until arriving at our home airport!! Awesome!
