Review summary

We loved the ports we visited for our first cruise I think we had a great time. I highly recommended these ports. Celebrity Summit was a wonderful ship it is newly renovated. I think they could improve service and activities. My son was injured mid way through our trip and they did try to make it comfortable for him. Bummer we couldn't do things as a family after though. We had a great time

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Easy going and quick taxi service. I would do the taxi service over any prepaid service. The total cost was only $24 and that was for 4 people and three suitcases. They do not charge per person! Booking through the cruise was $18 per person. Take the taxi. Fast moving line.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
They were open all the time but the food was just okay. The eggs were never done they looked really gross...i wish there was a little more variety and not so much oriental food. Sushi restaurant was disappointing. I would not recommend it.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
I wish there were more activities. The ship is def geared towards the older crowd. The pool deck is nice loved spending time there. Bar service is super slow. Not a lot to do for teens, they did have a basketball court area they spent time in and a ping pong table,however, the table was right with all the smokers which the teens hated!

Entertainment

Nice shows, wish there was more. I feel like they could offer more and better performances.

Children's Programs

I have teens (17 and 13). They have X Club but it was not any fun for them. I saw a lot of the younger crowd

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Always friendly! I loved Pasha, Karen, Floriani, Ida they were great to work with. Our room attended Fidelis was nice but at the end was super pushy for a tip.

large room for a cruise ship and good bathroom size. Loved it!

Ship tip

So many things. Combine everyone in your stateroom to one purchasing account. Get the drink package. Book excusions on your own

Roseau, Dominica

An island I had never heard of. Fantastic day of rainforest and sight seeing. Swim in the Gorge it's worth it.

Bridgetown, Barbados

We booked the Copacabana Private journey with Celebrity. My son ended up getting injured, taxi drivers are not nice to deal with. I would not go back.

St. George's, Grenada

we did the see, fun sand tour with the cruiseship. However, no sand was included. it was mostly snorkeling (2x) and eating at Calypso Island. The best part was listening to the history told by our tour guide.
