Review summary
In summary, we loved the entire experience. We are “virgin” cruisers compared to many people we met on ship so maybe our expectations weren’t as high as some of the posts I’ve seen about Celebrity and this ship and cruise elsewhere. All I can say is that the ship was spotless, modern and well-equipped for our needs, the food and drink and service were exceptional and the itinerary on and off-ship were a perfect mix – like any holiday, it’s up to you to make the most of it and enjoy it. We certainly did and would do it all again tomorrow if we could afford it and my waistline could survive it 😊Embarkation
