By far, this was the most relaxing, luxurious cruise we have ever taken. We have sailed on three other different lines, but the truth of the matter is, we have absolutely fallen in love with Celebrity. We especially loved their smoking policy, and the smokers stayed in their designated areas, so it made it easy to avoid those places. That being said, there is just one other comment we must make regarding the smoking areas, and that is we were wondering why Celebrity would have a smoking area right in the middle of the jogging track. Seems like they could have done better in that regard, as it makes no sense to take a healthy walk, jog, or run through a blue cloud on one corner. Other than this bit of information, we thought that Celebrity beat RCI, HAL and Princess hands down in all regards. We loved our wait staff at our 8:30 dining seating, and we were amazed that all other attendants who were there to tend to our needs called us by name every single day, even from way down the hall. Our cabin was perfect in every way. So, we can't say any more about how wonderful our cruise was. Just picture in your own mind the most perfect cruise, and you'll be there with Celebrity.
The lifeboats have a great paint job on their tops, with wonderful life rings as we had a wonderful view of that from our balcony cabin. Note to self.....make sure you check with travel agent about the exact view you will be getting from your balcony on your next cruise.
