Review summary

This was our first time sailing Celebrity. It was fun and I will sail them again. Because this was a shorter cruise, they had alot of things going on at the same time. So while we were at Karaoke, we missed Abba sing a long and some deck parties. If we had more time, some of these activities I do not feel would have overlapped as much.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Extremely quick. On the ship within 15 minutes.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Some of the best buffet I have ever had on a cruise. We wanted to try Qsune, but was never able to as whenever there was availability, we had other plans.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Karaoke was alot of fun with the live band, but they did not know any Spanish music. The band that plays Spanish music did not do Karaoke.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Enjoyed all the shows. Also enjoyed singer Jen Maldonado for her show. Liked the live band at all the shows. No soundtracks. All the ship entertainers were very good.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Everyone that we interacted with was very nice.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
Ship was very clean and looked pretty good for as old as she is. I felt the Atrium area was a little too dark. I understand it was to give a more elegant look, but I would have preferred a little more light. I know, this is nit-picking.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Cabin was very clean. Bed and pillows were uncomfortable. Once we talked to our room steward, he was able to get us better pillows and he put a thicker pad on our bed. Loved getting chocolate on rhe pillows at night.

Ship tip

Make sure to go to the Sunset Bar at back of buffet to enjoy a sunset with live music and a drink. It is what cruising is all about for me.

Ports of call

Miami, Florida

4 out of 5
I drive from Tampa, traffic in Miami is horrible.

Nassau, Bahamas

5 out of 5
The new cruise terminal looks pretty nice though we did not get off the ship.

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
Had a great time just wandering around the port. Lots of shops and a couple of fun bars.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Had 1 of the last luggage Tage to depart ship, but was no issue. We always take our time, eat breakfast then work our way off.
