Review summary

We booked the flight and the cruise together.  The flight down was canceled and we barely made the boat.  Once this bit of drama was over, the cruise was relaxing and we were pampered.  When we got to the cabin, a chilled bottle of champagne was waiting for us.  The evening of our anniversary, the waiter presented us with a cake.  (we did not mention our anniversary other than at time of booking).  We had two days at sea which I found quite relaxing.  We took excursions at three out of the four ports that we visited.  I enjoyed the excursions, but I found that they were a little slow initially getting things underway.  We waited in the hot sun on one for nearly 30 minutes for transportation. The nightly entertainment was excellent on most evenings.  (Only one evening I would rate as just fair) The food was good, but not exceptional.  The presentation and service were excellent. I found the entire crew to be very helpful and accommodating.  Overall, it was enjoyable and I would definitely book Celebrity again.

What a nice way to celebrate your anniversary.  Finding a chilled bottle of champagne in your stateroom was a nice additional treat.  Gloria
