This was our third cruise. Our first was with Celebrity (Galaxy-10 day southern Caribbean)and the second with Royal Caribbean (7 day eastern Caribbean). RC was good but Celebrity was more upscale-better service, fewer annoying announcements, etc.
I read other reviews where people were ripping apart the cabins, service and even saying the ship was creaking where they could not sleep. I have the opposite to state. Our cabin attendant, Efram, was fantastic! He provided constant first class service. He was always within sight with a constant friendly hello. And for those of you who like the "animals" left in your stateroom, we were always surprised by what we found after dinner.
Contrary to the last review I read, the food was outstanding, including the crab stuffed lobster. That meal was fantastic in addition to the steak kabobs, wonderful soups, appetizers and desserts. We've been Googling Celebrity's menu since our return to see how to make some of those meals. We don't have any complaints about the foods. We went to the lunch buffet and what a marvelous time to have it! No more having to stay awake until midnight, which is sometimes hard to do when you're relaxing all day.
Larger than the balcony room across the hall. Highly recommend.
