Wonderful cruise, but only because we had a suite.

Review summary

Great cruise if you have a suite. This was our first cruise on a mega cruise ship. It was too crowded most of the time so you stood in line for everything. Don't have this problem on Celebrity.

Embarkation

4 out of 5

No advantage to having a suite.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

Able to eat all meals in the Coastal Kitchen (reserved for suite guests). The only day we went to the Windjammer, there was nowhere to sit. Ship was crowded.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

Bought a Spa Thermal Suite pass but would not do again. temperatures in saunas were inconsistent. Ridiculously small thermal suite for such a large ship (only four heat beds and most of the time no locker was available).

Entertainment

5 out of 5

Water show, Ice show, stage show, and "Cats" performance were incredible. Best I have seen on my 25 cruises.

Grand Suite was fantastic. Plenty of room, storage and large bathroom. Shower was great.
