Sail Date: Sep 2011
Cabin: AquaClass 2

Embarkation and Disembarkation: The process was excellent at both ends of the cruise and better than what I have experienced on a couple of other cruise lines. Celebrity knows how to swiftly and conveniently move a lot of folks who are either anxious to board or get to the airport at the end of the trip.

Cabin: We were very pleased with our Aqua cabin on Deck 11. The room was very well appointed, meticulously clean, and had a very nice verandah. My wife (who is particular about such matters) was impressed with the bathroom. The shower was large compared to other ships and the location of the shower head and lower nozzles made us want to take longer showers than we normally do. The no fogging mirror is a great touch. Our cabin steward (Sebastian) was attentive and very professional. He seemed to anticipate our needs and fulfilled requests quickly. We also enjoyed the fact that there were so many free first-run movies available. My only nitpick is that there was no soft reading light near the couch so that I could get up early to read without disrupting my wifes sleep.

The Ship: What a pleasure it was to be on one of the first sailings of this magnificent ship. It was spotless everywhere, spacious and tastefully decorated. Not sure if this is due to layout or clever scheduling but with a couple of exceptions, we never felt crowded. In fact, we never had trouble finding a deck chair. There were also plenty of places to wander, including several interesting bars (Michael's, Martini Bar, etc.). We absolutely loved the fitness area, with plenty of great equipment and it was never too crowded. Again a small nitpick but I would have liked better yoga classes.
