Review summary

This is a holiday cruising so the crowd is a mix of kids, teenagers, young people and older people. We love Celebrity because the type of passengers tend to dress nicer especially during the evenings. Celebrity offers exceptional client service. Its ships are beautiful and look very new! The dining experience is amazing with many delicious meals. The itinerary is nice except St. Croix where there is not much to visit or do.

We liked two comedians. Celebrity singers and dancers are average.

We do not have young kids cruising with us

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
We have many amazing waiters, and bartenders who have made our cruise so enjoyable! They work long hours to make sure we are having great time.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
The ship looks beautiful! Celebrity goes extra miles to keep its ship spotless. At every port, ship painters are painting the body of the ship where it has stains or paint being chipped. The pubic restrooms during show time always has an attendant to ensure the restroom is kept clean.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Our cabin is spacious with a large couch. The room attendant cleans our room every time we leave the room. This is the part that I like cruising a lot. You messed the room but upon return each time, your room is spotless.

Ship tip

Try not to book a room on deck 11 because deck 12 (pool deck) is right above your head. It gets noisy during party times with foot stumping.

Ports of call

Punta Cana, Dominican Republic Did not visit port

Due to bad weather, we were not able to dock at this port.

Frederiksted, St. Croix, U.S.V.I.

This port does not have much to offer so we just walked to a local beach to spend a day.

Philipsburg, St. Maarten

5 out of 5
We love St. Maarten. It has many beautiful beaches, the shopping is amazing plus it has many restaurants. I always look forward to going back there.

Roseau, Dominica

5 out of 5
It is a very lush and beautiful port!

St. George's, Grenada

5 out of 5
This island has variety of spices. I bought a lot of them. The excursion to visit the island is very interesting.

Castries, St. Lucia

5 out of 5
Enjoyed visiting local markets within walking distance of the port.

Basseterre, St. Kitts

5 out of 5
This port has changed to much better than a few years ago. The island is a newly developed luxurious resort area which is so beautiful. The port now has many nice shops where I bought lots of good stuff.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Passing US custom is a breeze.
