We've been cruising a long time and have been on well over 30. We all agreed that this was one of the best if not the absolute best cruise we've ever taken. It wasn't the biggest or fanciest ship we've been on, but the excellent crew, entertainers and superb cruise director David, made thus a memorable experience....

Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
Food and service in all venues were excellent. We have been on many cruises including the Equinox just a few weeks ago. The Equinox was very good but the food and service on the Reflection was actually a bit better!
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
Always lots of stuff to do. More activities, live bands and poolside activities than on the Equinox.
Entertainment
5 out of 5
Great shows. We've seen singer Ashlie Amber before, as well as the comedian. Both are fabulous. Same shows as other Celebrity cruises we've done, but glad we saw them all again since the production crew on thus ship were fantastic.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Room steward, MDR staff and crew all over the ship were great. All were very friendly and truly wanting to provide excellent service.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
We like this class of ship. Well designed and just the right size. Easy to navigate. Crew kept everything spotless. Shipman refurbished in 2023 so looks new.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
Room looked new. Comfortable bed, air conditioning worked great. Good water pressure, TV and lots of storage. Only outlets and now usb ports like on newer ships, but we bring a cruise approved outlet expander with usb ports.
Ship tip
See all the shows. Enjoy the live bands and talented musicians. Many cruiselines are doing away with this option and using pre recorded music or a solo musician half playing over backing tracks.
We live Taino Bay. Been here several times. The pool, lazy river, bar and music are all fantastic. The shops and port area are so nice. The Dominican Republic did a fantastic job with this port.
Thanks for sharing your cruise experience with us and including the details of the trip you enjoyed. We're Celebrity fans too and enjoy the live music investment in people on cruises. Reflection is our next ship. Great to hear everything is ready for us in March!
My husband and I are going on our first cruise ever in May on Reflection. From your personal experiences on the many cruises you have completed, is the Specialty Dining package worth it on this cruise, or any others for that matter?
So glad it was a great time and great cruise. Celebrity is a wonderful cruise line. 5 stars all the way. Beautiful ships, delicious food, great staff and fantastic ports.
