Marella Celebration Review
Rating by category
Additional details
From checking in at Stansted to boarding at Tenerife it was all "plain sailing" excuse the pun. We hardly had a queue for embarkation and were taken straight to our cabin and our cases were already there, so we dumped out hand luggage and went on a tour of the ship. Although a smaller ship the Celebration had the traditional wrap around promenade deck which was lovely to walk around especially after each meal - a lovely way to keep off the pounds.
The cabin was larger than we were expecting two single beds and two pull down bunks, four wardrobes, in cabin safe, dressing table and chair and chest of drawers - ample storage room for four people. The bathroom was larger than on our previous cruise. The only downside to the cabin was that they only supply soap and shampoo no shower gel so we had to buy some from the shop on board.
The food was plentiful in both restaurants and we found we used the buffet restaurant most as you could eat as much or as little as you want, although the food was served to you I think this was to prevent the norovirus as there had been an outbreak on other ships at the time and we did notice a heightened awareness of hand cleaning and sanitizers all around the ship.
Cabin Review
526 great cabin near the lifts largest we have had four wardrobes in room safe plenty of room for 4 people two chairs dressing table didn't feel too small when we were all in it which was two adults and 15 and 16 yr old (size of four adults really). Would recommend this cabin as we had no rocking even in the bad weather I use the laundry on deck 3 (two below us) to iron a shirt and the corridor was narrower and you could feel the ship movement much more so would definitely recommend deck 5.
