As longtime Disney and later Royal Caribbean cruisers my wife and I were looking for a more upscale cruise for just the two of us. We heard good things about Celebrity and jumped when our travel agent found a good deal on this cruise.

Embarkation at Miami went smoothly, with bags delivered to our room by 4 pm. Cabin small but efficient with sufficient storage space. Lack of any clock annoying and the TV channel selection poor.

We bought the 3 restaurant package online and were able to quickly reserve all nights before we left the port. Reserved 4 dinners at the Opus and was able to get the same quiet, out of the way table by the window every night. Very good food and service. Murano, Tuscan Grill and Qsine were all fabulous, with outstanding food and wine, and superior service. Breakfast at the Oceanview Cafe proved too noisy, hectic and we ended up going to the AquaSpa cafe by the end of the cruise. Best meals we have ever had on a cruise! Read more
