Additional details
The journey out went without a hitch apart from the Celebrity cruises Meet and Greet service at Miami airport, that wasted an hour whilst they tried to locate the transfer coach, not what you want after a long flight for the UK. Celebrity really let themselves down in this area and on reflection next time we would take a cab. Mind you the return transfer was even longer because of extra drop offs at Miami port.
Celebrity booked our flights with US Airways, although next time we would fly direct to Miami instead of a 2 -3 hour stopover in Charlotte, it just dragged the whole day out. When when did get to the Sheraton on Seabreeze Blvd in Fort Lauder dale, it turned out to be rather nice and our room was large and right on the beach. Nothing like the negative reviews on Trip advisor.
Just a shame that we only had just a few hours next morning to go for a stroll and walk around the beach area. But I did find a nice Diner, Bahia Cabana over the road from the hotel for breakfast. Just time to buy some wine to take on board and then a swift 15 - 20 minute coach ride and a very smooth transfer onto the ship. Very impressed with the whole process, although I think it helped that we had paid quite a bit extra to have a Concierge class cabin with priority boarding.
Cabin Review
Concierge Class 2
Cabin 9044 - Concierge Class - deck 9 mid-ships - starboard side.
Large overhang but kept room cool in Caribbean.
Bright, clean and fairly roomy, but gap between wall mirror and bed narrow and care should be taken by the ladies not to damage themselves.
Matteresses could do with changing and en-suite a little small, but managable.
Shower is not a power shower.
Just about enough hanging and draw space for a two week cruise. Suitcases can be stored under the bed.
Air-con seemed to cope well with Caribbean heat.
