Review summary

The best part of any Celebrity Cruise are the staff; they make or break a cruise and that's why my daughter and I will only cruise Celebrity.  The major factors that keep us returning to Celebrity are food, stateroom quality and benefits, activities and personal touch.  We are made to feel as though we are their only passengers aboard their ships.  The food quality in Blu and specialty dinning is superb and the quality of their services, servers, stateroom attendants are second to none.  You can do activities nearly around the clock or simply lounge by the pool with a drink in hand; it's all what you want to indulge in.  

Ship experiences

Blue was wonderful since we were in Aqua Class and the specialty restaurants; Qsine & Tuscan Grille were great.

Onboard Activities

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Bambang & associate were the best stateroom attendants ever! Servers and maitre d's in the restaurants made us feel like royalty!

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
good shape; especially the new top deck which features "Taste of Film"...the Summit shows a movie and gives you a 7 course menu that reflects the movie's theme or location. We watched "The Hundred Foot Journey" and our courses featured fabulous French and Indian food while sitting on fabulous sectional furniture, being served drinks and wrapped up in soft flannel blankets...like a drive in for the elite...it was perfection!

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
We for the first time had a cabin on the aft..was afraid of fumes from the ship but it was perfect. We were on the 11th deck and directly beneath us each night was a guitarist or group and a fabulous bar so while we lounged on our private deck we felt like we had a our own private concert and bartender; true perfection.

Ship tip

One tip? Never cruised before? Take this cruise to Bermuda...7 days isn't enough for our family but this cruise is great for getting one's soul and mind untangled from the day to day craziness; great ship, great port, great food, great staff, great pools, great entertainment ... great time!

Thank you for your review.  We are cruising on Summit on 8/28/16 (our first Celebrity cruise) and visiting Bermuda for the first time.  Your information was quite helpful.

I've been on the summit and going again the 28th and we've never waited for dining and have always had nothing but excellent service from everyone we came in contact on the ship I am so excited to go back 11 days and counting

We had no reservations and only waited one night they said 45minutes but it was actually 20. Sometimes everyone gets there at the same time so you have to wait in line to be seated but even that they keep moving

We are going on 28th of this month. How long is the wait for dinner. Read horror studies. ..up to 45 min with reservations. But you dined in Blu so that's makes a difference.
