Review summary

The ship was beautiful, and the food was outstanding.  Food in the main dining room was very good.  We also ate at Qsine and Murano.  I can't say enough good enough good things about both restaurants, especially Qsine.  Many unexpected twists on recipes that were outstanding.  If prices weren't so high for the specialty restaurants, we would have ate at other places ($45 pp for Qsine and $50 pp for Murano).  In my opinion, the charges were far too high considering the amount we paid for the cruise itself. 

The nightly activities were sparse at best.  We were celebrating our 20th anniversary, and my wife and I are each 46 and 47 years old.  There wasn't much to do after dinner outside of the main theatre.  Pools and hot tubs were closed by 11 PM each night.  The main nightclub (sky lounge) had an incredible view and décor, but hardly anyone was in there.

Despite this, we loved the cruise but will probably not go back on a Celebrity cruise until we're much older.

Very little to do at night. Activities seemed to run one after the other instead of multiple options to choose from at any given time.
