Review summary

I would recommend this 5 night itinerary, ship, and Celebrity Cruises! This was my first Celebrity Cruise after one RCL cruise prior. We had a great time on the modern, gorgeous Celebrity Summit and at our ports.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Barely any line at 2:00 pm.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Slow dining room service (I think understaffed - our waiter was very nice). Great buffet food and service. The only special restaurant we went to, Tuscan Grille, was very nice, great food, great service from our waiter.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Nice modern and clean ship and amenities. Celebrity has fewer side activities than RCL, but the standard pools, hot tubs, sport court, jumbo movie screen, gym, were all up to par.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Live theater program was par excellence. I loved all the stage shows. The live musicians were lots of fun wherever they were popping up on board.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Great service from our room attendant, Ms. Ninta!

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Beautiful clean and modern ship. The plank deck is small without access to the helipad.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
While our cabin was modern, there was masking tape on the room-adjoining door, and our balcony door did not lock completely. The bathroom and bedroom were otherwise well appointed. Good amount of cabinet and closet space. There is a mini fridge. There was adequate storage space for our full suitcases under the bed.

Ship tip

Consider skipping the slow dining room in favor of some restaurant reservations. The buffet was always great including at dinner as well.

Ports of call

Miami, Florida

5 out of 5
We did our own trips to Vizcaya mansion/garden (Beautiful!) and the Thriller speedboat at Miami Bayside.

Key West, Florida Did not visit port

Not part of our cruise.

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
Clean port , plenty of shopping. Our 6 hour excursion of Stingray snorkeling, Jimmy (Jeep-esque) off-roading, Cenote diving, with lunch and resort style beach time included, was a lot of fun.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Speedy disembarkation with overnight luggage portage
