This was my 65 cruise cruising on 11 different cruise lines that include Carnival, Norwegian, Royal Caribbean, Princess, Holland America, Disney, Costa, Cunard, and Celebrity. This was my 16 cruise on Celebrity (I am an Elite member of Celebrity captain’s club program). I am 47 years old.

Hotel Info: We stayed at the Hampton Inn & Suites Miami/Brickell-Downtown night before the cruise. We had lunch at Perricone's Marketplace and Cafe that was within walking distance from the hotel. I rate the hotel and restaurant a perfect score. You are within the financial district and it is very clean and I felt safe.

Ship Info: Celebrity is one of our favorites when we are traveling with just adults. We sailed in November for 11 nights when school was in session, so the average age was probably around 60. Even if school was out, there usually is not as many children compared to other cruise lines that offer a lot of family activities (water slides, etc). The ship was extremely clean. We were fortunate to have Captain Kate on this sailing. She is very friendly and funny and I truly enjoyed having her as a captain. If you have the opportunity to have her as your captain, make sure you go to her question and answer session towards the end of the cruise. We love sitting in the solarium pool area because it is peaceful. The solarium also has a small healthy breakfast and lunch buffet in the corner I enjoyed. Read more
