Sail Date: Sep 2016
Cabin: Deluxe Veranda 2C

First time on celebrity had a great time, loved the ship it was very laid back and relaxing never noticed beds being reserved on decks as on other ships. Loved the lawn club,didn't see the need for a lawn at sea but it was like the icing on the cake. The only negative we found was that it wasn't always clear how much the extras were, for example Pilates or yoga classes would have an * or ** beside them in the cruise news but didn't say how much they were. Also we had a classic drinks package and on the first few days there was a lot of pressure to upgrade to premium but we felt we would be fine with the classic, couldn't see why if you chose from the premium selection that you had to pay the full amount and not just the difference, but that didn't spoil anything. Depending on the price I probably would buy the premium package before my cruise. Would like to have tried the speciality restaurants but found 50 dollars each plus gratuities too much when the Main Dining room food was very good. Overall our favourite cruise so far which upto now for me was Azamara. We had been to most of the destinations before so did our own thing everywhere, would have liked longer in a few of the places Palma in particular.

Cabin Review

Deluxe Veranda 2C

Cabin 2C

Cabin was comfortable and we had enough space, the balcony did give a feeling of space and wouldn't want a cabin without one. The bathroom was fine no bath but that didn't matter to us.

Port Reviews

Amsterdam

Easy to do on your own

Bilbao

Took the shuttle to town

Seville

Stayed in cadiz

Cartagena (Spain)

Easy to walk into

Palma de Mallorca (Majorca)

Should have taken shuttle to cathedral as a long walk in the heat, hire a bicycle is a good idea

Florence (Livorno)

Didn't take the tour as don't like long time on coaches, would do city break in Florence another time
