Review summary

This was our 6th cruise (second on Celebrity) and by far our best! We had a fantastic suite which really makes the whole experience SO much better . . . in fact, we're ready to do the whole thing over again next summer and booking it tonight! Same room, same itinerary and sister-ship since the Summit is no longer sailing that route.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
Most cruise ship food is spectacular - this seemed like institutional food quickly produced. We did however, like the food in the specialty restaurant much more.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Well let's see - I hit a slot jackpot in the casino . . . does it get any better than that???

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
The ship was beautiful and clean and layed out efficiently.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Fantastic! All the way down to the flat screened plasma TV's and the Bang and Olafsen stereo system. Floor to ceiling windows that fanned out over the ship . . . we really didn't even want to leave our suite - in fact one night we didn't! We cozied up on the couch with a blankie and ordered in! A great way to end a long day.

Ports of call

Icy Strait Point (Hoonah), Alaska

Whale watching - it's incredible!

Skagway, Alaska

3 out of 5
Narrow gauge train ride is ok. I think I would rent a car and take the drive myself next time.
Don't Miss: Brew Pub

Juneau, Alaska

5 out of 5
The Taku Lodge is certainly a must see.
Don't Miss: Alaskan King Crab at the Crab Shack . . . again!

Ketchikan, Alaska

5 out of 5
The best salmon fishing - really. We caught over 60 lbs and had it processed and shipped home.
Don't Miss: Don't miss the Alaskan King Crab at the Crab Shack - it's KILLER!

Pros: First class room & butler

Cons: hmmm . . . what cons? . . I didn't win bingo?

Recommends Celebrity Summit? Yes!
