This is our first cruise with Celebrity and it won't be our last. We were delighted with the level of service of the crew and their attention to detail.
We are fairly experienced cruisers, usually cruise once a year. We make our own travel arrangements and usually arrive at least a day early to visit family in the area, which is what we did this cruise.
Boarding was very easy and convenient. We arrived at the terminal at 11:00 am and by 11:20 we were onboard. As the rooms were not available until 1:00 pm we made our way to the Oceanview Bar just beyond the Oceanview Cafe. We found a table easily and in this spacious comfortable area, with sofas and chairs, as well as tables and chairs. While my husband went for lunch, I propped my sprained ankle up on a chair (this is relevant later). Upon his return, I then decided to maneuver through the Cafe, albeit a bit slow, to check out buffet. The buffet was a delight with interesting salads, including a Caesar Salad, made to order, hot entrees from India and Mexico, as well as the standard buffet spread. There is also a sandwich bar, a multitude of fresh fruit and ice cream made on the ship each day.
Great view, spacious balcony and bathroom, very convenient to all of the action.
