I chose this cruise for the dates and itinerary. It was my first time on a cruise and I traveled solo. I was recommended celebrity by my travel agent and it was a good choice. I have been to Sydney and Fiji before but not the other ports,
Embarking and disembarking went smoothly. There were lines but they always moved along. Before I knew it I was on or off the ship. This was also true at the ports, particularly when tenders were used. I had spent 5 days prior to boarding in Sydney with family (doing sightseeing) and flew home the day we left the ship. I did get off quite early based on my stateroom but I was able to get my flight home changed so less time hanging around at the airport.
My cabin was well maintained and worked well for me. I didn't mind it's location or that it was inside. I would book it the same again.
It was forward and vey quiet. The room was spacious enough for one and very well maintained. I'd definitely book it again. It was a non standard layout as it was sideways. The room attendant was thoughtful and left me extra towels and ice without asking, just seeing I had it and had laundry to dry.
Sydney always has a lot to see and do.
I enjoyed wandering through the market and taking a swim in the ocean. It was very relaxing.
