Review summary

Wasn't overly impressed with the ship. Entertainment could have been better. Didn't like how they packed you in like sardines in the main dining hall. Not the best cruise for young kids I noticed.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Super quick and easy. Probably the quickest embarkation I've ever experienced.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
I was expecting the buffet to be a bit fancier as I was told Celebrity is a step up from from RC. Side note, I was shocked the ship didn't have washing stations before you walk into buffet.

Entertainment

3 out of 5
Could have been better. The production Broken Strings was boring. I walked out with a few other people. The comedian was funny though.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
I found staff to all be very friendly

Ship Quality

3 out of 5
Ship was clean but nothing special. Definitely a bit dated. Heard it's going to dry dock soon.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Clean but bit dated.

Ship tip

Overall a nice cruise, but would I do celebrity again..probably not. I think I'll still with RC.

Perfect Day At Coco Cay, Bahamas

5 out of 5
Had a great time. Thrill Waterpark was fun but, as an adult I definitely had just as much on CocoCay itself. Luckily I got the Thrill tickets for free.

The hand-washing stations at the buffet entrances are fairly new. The first time I remember seeing them was on the Harmony of the Seas. I also doubt that they would mzungu that extensive of an update during any dry dock.

Sorry you were disappointed. RC must be more familiar and therefore you prefer it.

The reflection just came out of dry dock. I did not fine the dinning room that crowded. It was full but not shoulder to shoulder.

Celebrity is not a cruise line for kids, do Royal Caribbean next time, make sure it’s at least an Oasis Cllass ship
