We sailed aboard the Celebrity Silhouette December 21-28, 2014, and had a great time.

The embarkation process was surprisingly easy. We received a voicemail several days before, letting us know when the best time would be for us to arrive, based on our cabin location. We arrived between 2:00P and 2:30P and sailed through. Once on board, we went to make dinner reservations. Unlike other cruise lines that we have sailed on, if you want to make dinner reservations before the ship sails, you have to pay for them in advance. We wanted to use our shipboard credit to make these reservations, but we could not use it to pay for anything until after we boarded. So, although we made reservations first thing after boarding the ship, we could only get reservations between 5:30P and 6:30P, and even that took a bit of work, as we had to see which restaurants could fit us in on which days. It would be nice to be able to make dinner reservations in advance without having to pay for the upcharge until after we ate the actual dinner.

We ate at the Lawn Club the first night. Although Celebrity bills the Lawn Club as a “cook your own food” destination, we did not have to do so. We had salad, pizza, (which they call flatbread) and the rib eye. We really liked the pizza, and found it to be excellent throughout the ship. Our waiter was super.

Cabin Review

Deluxe Veranda 2B

Cabin 2B

This is a forward cabin on the starboard side with a balcony. We loved our cabin and spent a good amount of time on our balcony. Our cabin attendant, Viviana, was wonderful! She answered any and all questions and took very good care of us. Being in the forward part of the ship was nice, and being on the starboard side meant that no cigarette smoke came up from below.
