Gosh, it's hard to believe we were on the same ship as previous posters. Yes, opinions are just that - opinions, and everyone has a different one. I found the ship and particularly the crew excellent in most respects, with just a few things that were not quite right for us but may be perfect for others.

This was our 4th cruise, with the others all on Royal Caribbean (Vision and Radiance class), and we boarded this ship with great apprehension after reading so many negative reviews. A lot of this review will be a compariosn between Royal (Radiance) and Celebrity (Millennium) , and I found both lines similar but different. (If that makes sense...)

We were a group of 3 families (14 of us) and our friends were first time cruisers and they are now completely hooked and planning their next cruise. After being greeted with champagne or a Mimosa, my first thought was Wow, what a beautiful ship and it does have a more upscale and classy feel than Royal Caribbean. Our teenage kids preferred the look and feel of Royal, but I liked both in different ways. It was nice to have a change from Royal, and the adults in our group all loved the Millennium. The pool deck is brilliant, bigger and more open that what we have seen previously, and all loungers are cushioned with many luxury loungers around the pool area. The cruise was full and the weather was hot, yet it was never a problem to get a lounger at the pool. Towels are plentiful and there is no need to check them out, you can just help yourself, and beach towels are provided in your cabin for shore days.

Cabin Review

Very comfortable stateroom, good size window, plenty of storage. Easy to store 2 large suitcases and 2 carry-ons under the bed. Very quiet, we couldn't hear anything from our neighbours, although we did hear people in the corridor, and doors slamming ocassionally, but I think you would have that in most cabins. We were very happy and would book this location again if we went with an oceanview and not a balcony.
