Best Time Ever

June

Pros: Staff, Entertainment, Cabin, Smiles

Cons: Making Dinner Reservations

Recommended: Yes

Our trip to Alaska was everything and more than we expected. The Edge was our home for 7 glorious days. We can't say enough about the staff and their efforts to make us comfortable and happy. We loved all the activities and entertainment. Always something to do and that makes everyone happy. The swimming was fun and boy did we love the hot tubs. Our only rub was making dinner reservations. At one point one of the hostesses was actually rude and on the last night they put us at an uncomfortable table and the server was non attending to our needs and he kind of left us hanging. We think he was put out with our being in his station. I think on our part we should have made dinner reservations in advance but this was for sure a learning experience as far as dining. Our seating time was 6 and we always felt upon arrival as a bother. That was uncomfortable. Sorry. Other than that misfortune we loved everything about Celebrity Edge. The baristas were the best!!! Bradley entertained us with his best. Always made a us laugh and we looked forward to seeing him at our activities. He is your real star. The buffet staff were always so welcoming and so helpful. The selections of foods were right on and always very yummy and hot. Much appreciated. All in all we had a trip of a lifetime. All of our excursions made through Celebrity and all three excursions were well planned out and organized. This is second time with Celebrity and I know it will not be our last. Thank you Celebrity for making our trip so memorable.

Celebrity sailing

June

Pros: excellent dinning options

Cons: high prices on drinks . The Shops prices are extremely high

Recommended: Yes

We were lucky to great weather in every port visited. Very spacious bath room

Alaska on the Celebrity Edge

June

Pros: Solo cabin and dinner each night in a different dining room if you wished. Also loved the coffee and tea specialty cafe. Also loved the specialty restruant Roof Top Cafe, great steak.

Cons: Hard to understand the dining experience if you had never had it. They do not have a central dining room rather 4 separate dining rooms which need separate reservations or can walk up.

Recommended: Yes

Love the trip and loved the large windows for viewing all around the ship. Good food and service.

The cherry on top!

March

Pros: A beautiful ship, friendly, capable crew, gregarious captain and officers

Cons: We had to come home

Recommended: Yes

We have been cruising for more than 40 years. This experience on the Celebrity Edge was the cherry on top! We felt like royalty throughout our 33 days on board. Every day was a new adventure whether in port on an excursion or a day at sea. It was difficult to say goodbye to the ship and crew. An incredible cruise that blew the lid off our expectations.

Celebrity Edge = New Zealand

March

Pros: Rooms were awsome. Loved the window in the room. We would not change anything in the room. Entertainment on the ship was great.

Cons: Excursions were expensive.

Recommended: Yes

Cruise was great.

Celebrity Edge

March

Pros: Very few kids, excellent staff, infinite veranda

Cons: Some of the upholstery needed cleaning - couch in stateroom, dining chairs, etc.

Recommended: Yes

Loved our cruise! Will definitely choose Celebrity again for future cruises.

Headed to Alaska!

September

Pros: Excellent service , friendly staff, good food, room was good size with a great deck

Cons: The only con is having to pay extra for the speciality restaurants.. which btw were really good!

Recommended: Yes

I would personally do different excursions due to the overcrowding on the two we purchased. Great view from all sides of the ship..port valet to our luggage to the airport for us which was super nice and convenient! Definitely would do a celebrity cruise again!

Alaska edge

August

Pros: Friendly helpful crew including dining room staff, wine steward and cabin attendant. clean attractive ship

Cons:

Recommended: Yes

Guest services as well as the stateroom attendant solved the problem with my luggage.

Andrea Clark’s review

August

Pros: Excellent service, food, and accommodations

Cons:

Recommended: Yes

It would help to schedule shows slightly later to allow 5:30 dining to not be rushed.

June family cruise to Alaska

June

Pros: The staff, service, dining options, port activities, staterooms, layout of the ship

Cons: Would prefer a different location on the ship next time (between the stairways), but we booked late

Recommended: Yes

Our family included 2 parents and 2 teenage boys. We reserved 2 cabins in Aquaclass right next to each other which worked perfectly. Aquaclass gave us exclusive access to Blu, where we had dinner every night. We loved it. We booked a couple of shore excursions through the ship the day of, and that worked out great. We knew what the weather would be. We also booked our own excursions when we got to a couple of ports, and that worked out great as well. We all had the opportunity to relax or socialize with others. Our high school graduate was at an in between age for activities, but found his groove with activities as the trip progressed. There were many areas of the ship that felt open and uncrowded, if you wanted to meet others, hang out, or read a book. The staff was very welcoming and warm. We lucked out on the weather. There was perhaps one day of misty rain, but not at any of the ports. There were folks in the hot tubs, and some in the pool. I hit the thermal spa instead (included in Aquaclass).

Recommended: Yes

Excellent trip highly recommend

First cruise

May

Pros: Great room/staff

Cons: none

Recommended: Yes

This was our first cruise, and our room had a little veranda with a window that we could put down. It was great for the Dawes Glacier view and pictures instead of standing up on deck with scores of other people. The one thing I would caution, and if you are a seasoned cruiser, you know this, pack cold remedies. All in all we had a great time, saw some beautiful scenery and of course those whales.

Beautiful Ship

May

Pros: Balcony, showers, dining options, solarium chairs with cushions, storage

Cons: Food hit and miss, not consistent, miss promenade/pub on Royal Carr.

Recommended: Yes

Except for lobster/filet night in Blue, steaks very disappointing. Desserts were mediocre. Red velvet cake was horrible, even Color was wrong. Most desserts were so so. Whoever made croissants and hummus- best things I ate all week. Loved pasta station on buffet, fabulous. Our room steward, Jadyson was outstanding!!

What an amazing ship!

April

Pros: 1) The ENTIRE crew 2) Elegance, Cleanliness and Beauty of the ship 3) Food (my god the food!)! 4) Edge Entertainers and Orchestra 5) Wide array of activities. There were so many I couldn't possibly list them all!

Cons: 1) Hard sell at the spa even after I spent quite a bit on services to begin with. 2) Group fitness room was too small but the gym itself was fabulous!

Recommended: Yes

Had an amazing time on the Edge from Sydney to Honolulu. It was the perfect mix of relaxation and fun! The Cruise Director, Giuseppe (and Dominic as well) were so entertaining and fun! The Captain was very communicative and didn't hesitate to engage with everyone. I can' t think of any crew member that didn't greet us with a smile and hello every time we saw them! OK maybe one but we broke him by the end of the cruise! lol. Our cabin was cleaned so quickly every single morning and our cabin steward Loreen did it with a smile. Even if she was in someone elses room cleaning up if she saw us pass she would yell.....HELLOOOOOOOO! The organization of the tenders was really a sight to watch, so well done. Entertainment by the Edge Singers, Dancers & Band were so so so good. The rest of the entertainers were a bit uneven but even they were pretty good!

Refined elegance

March

Pros: Good food, excellent service. Great entertainment. Stunning ship!

Cons: 2 rather than 3 elevators(the usual) can make for a long walk. The Infinite balconies is not for everyone. Smpunts yo more cabin space bs try being able to be outdoors. I also don’t like there being no Skypunge area in front of the ship to see ahead.

Recommended: Yes

Overall a very good, classy ship.

Excellent Destinations but Crowded

September

Pros: Beautiful Ports of Call

Cons: Too Many Passengers and Bad Wifi

Recommended: Yes

Re: Wifi - Celebrity should NOT even offer this Basic package, which meant nothing other than texts on WhatsApp worked. Texting through Kakao Talk, e.g., broke down for some folks. No video and no photos. What kind of useless Wifi is it in this day and age? It's a shame even to refer to it as "Wifi." You should call it WhatsApp Texting. Better yet, don't offer the Basic package. Food was generally good, but salty. Need to use less salt. In places like Portofino, releasing close to 3000 people from Edge into tiny towns like that really could not be managed well. At Palma, we had Edge and MSC, where passengers came off the ship almost the same time (8000 people?). Celebrity needs to rethink these ports and their ships and coordination w/ other cruise lines for crowd mgmt. Not sure what % of people from Celebrity went to Cinque Terre from La Spezia (we did), but some of these tiny towns were just being overrun by people. And, I suspect Edge played a fairly significant role in adding to the crowd issue. For these small towns like Portofino and Cinque Terre, Celebrity needs to offer smaller ships.

Amazing cruise

July

Pros: Beautiful boat, food was good and very clean

Cons:

Recommended: Yes

Overall this boat exceeded my expectations from the food to the staff and the cleanliness. The entertainment was next level and we will continue to go on Celebrity.

Fabulous ship

May

Pros: Great staff, great food, great retreat suite

Cons:

Recommended: Yes

Loved our stay in Retreat Suite. Beautiful room, great pool dining areas and wonderful lounge with exceptional concierge service. Would highly recommend. We put a deposit down on another cruise !

Southern Caribbean Panama Canal

February

Pros: Entertainment. Stateroom. Staff.Eden. Cruise and Director. Ship Activities.

Cons: Restaurant reservation system. Excursions that promote purchases, poor value.

Recommended: Yes

Cleanliness of ship exceptional. Entertainment was as good as we have ever seen. Friendly staff. Giuseppe stands out as one of the best cruise directors we have had! Excursion value in all ports on the ship should be addressed. Additional area to get speciality coffees.

Edge

February

Pros: New ship, very different in features and design

Cons: Way too many guests, did not like the fact you had no Verhanda

Recommended: No

I love Celebrity brand, however I did not enjoy this ship. Too many people, took forever to get elevators, food was mediocre at best, did not have a main dining room, 4 smaller restaurants requiring reservations. Could not find brochure in room that explained the ship and where to find things, charge for room service (other than continental breakfast), never saw SR leaders around the ship. Music in all venues was very loud.

Has the Edge

January

Pros: Food, entertainment, ship layout , friendly employees

Cons: Pre cruise reservations, hygiene

Recommended: Yes

Food was amazing! Entertainment was mostly great. Loved the ship and the employees. The pre cruise reservations for specialty restaurants was horrendous. They have to figure this out. Had sinks to wash hands going into buffet but no one washed. Have to force that.

Beautiful Ship

January

Pros: The infinity veranda is spectacular

Cons: Still a little slow with service

Recommended: Yes

We absolutely loved the infinity veranda and spent a lot of the days at sea reading and relaxing in our room since it was so beautiful. The Eden cafe was our favorite lunch spot since the salads were prepared fresh and the sandwiches made in front of you.

Our second cruise on Edge - Southern Caribbean

January

Pros: Still a beautiful ship. Love the infinite veranda and had good to excellent food in the restaurants. An interesting itinerary.

Cons: Staff seemed undertrained and there were supply issues in some venues. Bad experience with the maitre’d in Blu. Chaotic shore excursion in Cartagena (other excursions were good).

Recommended: Yes

We did our second cruise on Celebrity Edge, third on the Edge series and fifth Celebrity cruise overall (36 total from all cruise lines). We enjoyed the days at sea and had good excursions on Grand Cayman, in Curacao, and on Bonaire. We missed an excursion in Aruba due to very loud street noise nearly all night near where we were docked (beginning of Carnival). We had a horrid excursion that was not a fun day in Cartagena (a misnamed Hop-On/Hop-Off tour). We ate at three speciality restaurants, with the Fine Cut Steakhouse being the best meal on the entire cruise; food was good to great for most meals. Our stateroom was well-maintained (minor issues resolved immediately) and we love the infinite veranda. On the negative side: Staff is poorly trained (many seemed new to their jobs) and there are language barriers; there were issues with getting certain drinks and in the right glasses at some of the bars; the ship has some overall maintenance issues (e.g., visible rust, damaged floors, Magic Carpet that only stayed on one floor and had only one function). We had a very negative experience with an arrogant and rude maitre’d in Blu (the hostess wasn’t much better - the wait staff was good) and we wrote this up to send to Celebrity. He belittled people and argued with them and was insufferable when we tried to have a table for 8 on the last night. Overall, it was a very good cruise, not the greatest cruise we have been on. We still would recommend these ships.

Celibrity Edge

November

Pros: Veranda staterooms

Cons: dining, entertainment, on-board stores

Recommended: Yes

Didn't really care for the 4-dining room concept. Best to make a reservation a day prior (two max) or you could be standing in line, waiting to be seated. By not having an assigned dinner table, the wait staff doesn't get to know you and your preferences. Often, just a waiter to serve our table; no asst. waiter (bus boy). A knowledgeable sommelier was non-existent. A number of wines we wanted were out of stock. Food was great except for the first day meal that gave my wife food poisoning. Because of that (and a queasy stomach), did not walk the ship very much. Concierge class veranda cabin was nice. On-board stores were "high-end" and not for the majority of passengers. Had prior booked another cruise on the Edge in March 2023 but after that, it's the Solstice class ships for us.

Greece

September

Pros: Service

Cons: Skip Naples, I have no idea why you would give that city any tourists. They didn't care if we were there.Excursions were too long. I was traveling with my mother & there weren't any excursions we could do that interested us.

Recommended: Yes

Loved everything!!

Mediterranean Cruise September 2022

September

Pros: Staff, staterooms, food, weather, ports of call

Cons: Entertainment, limited hours

Recommended: Yes

We found the entertainment in the theater uninspired but the music around the ship was pretty good overall. For the mentioned Pros consider them all excellent as I do not want to break them all down. The biggest Con was limited hours (likely due to staffing issues but that is a guess). During the day the only place to grab a drink was the pool bar as interior restaurants and "bars" didn't open until after 4pm and most of them not until after 6pm. Overall this was an excellent trip with very limited 'cons"

Wonderful vacation!

June

Pros: Great cities and excursions to go with them!

Cons: Not enough time to enjoy the whole ship!

Recommended: Yes

We had top shelf service on board! Every employee were outstanding! Meals were elegantly served and most delicious as well! It was the most incredible vacation experience!

Best trip ever. The food, the room, the service and the activities were 5 Star. The crew made it their point to take care of you. We felt very safe and the ship was very, very clean. Don't delay, if you are considering booking on the Celebrity Edge. It's the best vacation you will take.

Cons: Port calls were short. Casino small and machines don't pay out much. Would have liked more small pubs and places to watch sports. Would have liked more diverse activities

Recommended: Yes

Beautiful Ship. Personable Captain.

The best cruise

December

Pros: The ship is beautiful and the food was great. The entertainment was and the men a women were very helpful and polite

Cons: The only thing that was a little disappointed was the room - the bed was so big that it didn't leave much room. The next time I would prefer the bed be closer to the bathroom to leave us more room

Recommended: Yes

Everything was first class and the crew were terrific

A Change for the Better

March

Pros: Infinity Balcony; Eden; Spa Thermal Suite; Food; Diverse and Interesting Entertainment; Open and New feeling all around the ship; Bathroom in cabin was much roomier; the App was very helpful; Service from all crew members remains a Celebrity signature

Cons: Gelato moved to OceanView thus eliminating my favorite drink in Cafe Al Bacio, No hooks anywhere in the cabin; There are no reading lights over the bed; makeup mirror lighting poor; dividers in drawers not necessary; safe seemed to be too small; TV does not swivel

Recommended: Yes

Overall, the feel of Edge was terrific. The open public spaces are used well and the wall signs made for easy navigation on each deck. We thought the entertainment was especially geared for our generation...lots of Rock and music from the 60's and 70's. Service in Blu was once again first class. Don't quite understand the location of Blu with the lifeboats blocking the view, but it did not detract from the feel of the restaurant. Specialty dining in Eden was a spectacular experience. We had lunch in Raw on Five, also a great experience. The Sea Thermal Suite with the new rooms meant a great experience every day. Everyone on The Edge was well aware of the Coronavirus and precautions were taken at all times. We look forward to our next Edge cruise.

The Edge

February

Pros: The staff, the ship itself. The captain.

Cons: Bar service in Solarium was non-existent. Previous sailings had salmon bar, at lunch buffet, every day. This sailing only had it once and guests were looking for it.

Recommended: Yes

Loved the ship

Edge cruise 2/9

February

Pros: Service, shows,boarding and unboarding

Cons: Slightly obstructed views

Recommended: Yes

Enjoyed the cruise. Third time on Celebrity

Edge February 2020

February

Pros: Excellent Service, Food, Modern Staterooms.

Cons: Blu disappointing (noisy/small/no ocean view), Entertainment was very limited and not for a Celebrity crowd.

Recommended: Yes

If you like Aqua Class with the Blu restaurant, you are better off on the Solstice class ships. Blu restaurant was small and very noisy with only a view of the life boats. Evening entertainment was better this time than a year ago but still very limited; ship's productions (which are still very weird) or comedians. Think we will stick with the Reflection or Silhouette.

Celebrity Edge Cruise

January

Pros: Great Ship, Staff, Service, and Food!!! The ports were all Great!!!

Cons: Couldn't think of any.

Recommended: Yes

This was one of our most memorable vacations. I look forward to visit some of the other parts of the world on the Celebrity Cruise Line.

Living on the "Edge"

January

Pros: All staff were very attentive. Loved Eden and the Roof Garden and the outdoor pool.

Cons: Food in cafe was somewhat repetitive, chicken overdone, music in cafe was too loud. While I'm eating, I. would prefer quieter music and better lighting. The restaurants were fine.

Recommended: Yes

The shows put on by the on-ship performers were adequate but not what I would call excellent. The music talent brought in were great. The stateroom was much more than I expected and offered some very nice features that were not present on the "Celebrity" we were on last year.

Celebrity Edge

January

Pros: Beautiful ship, comfortable staterooms, wonderful shows,

Cons: Very small veranda, having restaurants instead of main dining room, no library or quiet areas, gym bathroom not kept clean as well as other bathrooms, Martini bar area too small, No grand foyer

Recommended: Yes

We are used to Solstice Class ships. Therefore, felt the areas throughout ship were smaller & lacking. We were not aware when booking our cabin that it did not have an infinity veranda, therefore, rarely used small veranda.

Beautiful ship

Pros: I really liked the layout of the ship

Cons: Service was slow

Captain Kate and Giuseppe were delightful

Fantastic ship and crews

January

Pros: New ship

Cons: Nil

Recommended: Yes

Outstanding ship with extremely friendly staff. We had the pleasure to sail with Captain Kate Mccue (first female Captain) and her fantastic staff. From the various bars and restaurants, there is something for everyone to enjoy. Entertainment on board is somewhat limited but the late shows at night were incredible. We found two gold nuggets on board, the first one was Nazareth who took care of us like king, keeping our stateroom first class every times. The second gold nugget was Eva from the Cosmopolitan restaurant, she made us feel special every time we had the privilege to spend time with her. Will keep outstanding memories from this wonderful cruise.

group vacation

December

Pros: size of ship

Cons: issues with regard to theater shows. Early seating was to attend 9:30 show-the reason they are dinning early is not to wait til 9:30 to see a show/late seating went to early show but show didn't end til 8:30 when dinner was to begin at 8a

Recommended: Yes

loved the size of the ship but dinning was not wonderful and the inability to get to see but one show was disappointing. Loved the days at sea but would have liked one more port(that was different from the usual).

Good times

November

Pros: The entertainment was awesome with lots of choices for everyone. The food was excellent. Great service in the dining areas. The decor was like nothing we had seen before.

Cons: The infinity verandah was not as we expected. Liked the extra room it provided, however once the window was open AC didn’t work. Would choose balcony going forward.

Recommended: Yes

Great value for the money. Loved the all inclusive. Evening shows outstanding. The design and decor was spectacular.

Not as good as I expected

November

Pros: Infinite balcony window open made cabin feel like a beachfront cabana

Cons: Captain can lock the balcony window and salt blocked the view 7 of 9 days

Recommended: No

Beautiful ship and good for those who are looking for a different onboard vibe, limited seating outside in true shade, food was good, entertainment was on par with other ships but I found the musicians sub par, I was surprised by the excellent coffee in the buffet: Lavazza, no promenade deck, jogging track went up from deck 15 to 16 and back down again, activities were unexciting unless you like trivia and pool games, Magic Carpet does not move when you're on it for drinks or dinner, Magic Carpet dinner was $95 and only available twice in 9 days (book asap if you are interested!), Le Petit Chef specialty dining was delightful: $55, there are no drawers in the single infinite balcony room and all singles are right above the life boats, your iPhone can control the room and TV if you download the app, the tour app requires a 3D device, Select dining (any time) usually had to wait for a table if arrived at dining room during the 7:00 hour, the Eden room was smaller than I expected with limited seating to watch the show unless you eat there.

Edge 11/15 to 11/24/2019

November

Pros: Everything was great

Cons: None

Recommended: Yes

We loved the ship. It was a beautifully decorated ship. Our cabin was absolutely beautiful and very spacious. The entertainment was terrific. We especially enjoyed the Performances of the Singing and Dancing. The other entertainment was also very good. Food in the Dining Room and the OceanView were delicious. The ship staff from top to bottom were friendly and would go out of their way to please.

Pros: Loved the new balcony and bathroom. There was plenty of space for our clothes. Staff was great.

Cons: Shore excursions were iffy.

Recommended: Yes

There were lots of places to settle in and get comfortable. Almost didn't miss the library. Entertainers were great. There seemed to be lots of space for everyone. We never had trouble finding a seat or a bathroom. We love the attention to details, such as directional signs, lights indicating the direction of elevators, restrooms, etc.

Amazing Trip on 11 nights of the Amalfi Coast

May

Pros: Infinite Veranda, Shore Excuresions, casino, amazing food choices and tastes, Stateroom Attendant

Cons: Need Premium Drink Package and Internet Package a must

Recommended: Yes

Our first ever cruise and we wanted to do Greece and Italy. It was so amazing and a trip of a lifetime we will never forget. The only complaint, some of the shore excursions were so packed at stops, we didn't have enough time to shop or eat. Especially when Celebrity had several buses going to the same place and other cruise lines were there at the same port and destinations! These need to be stagered and add more or different stops.

Pros: Brand new ship. Great dining.

Cons: 0

Recommended: No

Sail Celebrity!

April

Pros: Gorgeous Ship with plenty to do for adults looking for a cruise with little to no kids. Infinite Veranda Stateroom is perfect for 2 and a great view. Plenty of food options and restuarants to dine in. Staff is friendly and helpful. Excursion options at each port. Excellent Spa and Solarium services. Theatre entertainment was fun and enjoyable. Fitness zone to get your exercise.

Cons: The shower does not drain well and floods around the toilet. If you want a cruise to bring your kids, I wouldn't recommend this ship. Limited stuff for kids. Plenty for adults. Getting aboard the ship was easy. Disembarkment was a mess. Once you get off the ship, there are no signs to direct you to Celebrity transfers to get to the airport. Staff outside seemed completely lost as well. Very frustrating. Onboard shops are very expensive and wish they offered more options that were affordable. Blu and Luminae are only open to The Retreat and Suite members. Wish Celebrity explained more about what is inclusive with your cruise package and what is not. We were a bit confused the first day being first time cruisers. The Celebrity App does not always work very well and we ended just calling Guest services to make reservations. If you want Internet on board it is costly and it doesn't connect well.

Recommended: Yes

For a first time cruise we were very happy with Celebrity Edge! Would definitely sail away again on this ship.

Really different from Solstice and Millennium class ships

February

Pros: New decor, lots of outside seating, food and dining, new theater design.

Cons: Infinite veranda, Eden lounge, Magic Carpet

Recommended: No

Good, but NOT Up to Hype

January

Pros: Celebrity's High Level of Service; Visual Appeal

Cons: See Comments

Recommended: Yes

"Infinite" balcony is NOT a balcony; it is a sitting room with a big window. It can't be used "after hours" as shade is drawn from a central location and can't be opened at night. Theatre is too small for the size of the ship. Its circular stage and visual effects are impressive, however it has only about 860 seats. That is an effective capacity of about 1,700 for two performances on a ship with 2,800 to 2,900 passengers. Some performances were Standing Room Only, for which the cruise director apologized more than once. One of the shows could only be characterized as hard rock in an effort to appeal to a younger demographic. Don't they realize that 40-somethings have children and there are no attractions such as water slides, surf simulation, ice skating, and rock climbing that would be appropriate for children? All the show did was alienate Celebrity's 60-something plus base. Fewer, but larger elevators, which means that every elevator ride will include stops at nearly every deck. Shopping is limited to high-end jewelry. Cruise ship shopping is generally impulse-based. Passengers do not shop at Bulgari, Cartier, and Tiffany on impulse. Bulova and Citizen watches were available from push cart format venues. That was condescending to those who may have purchased popular-priced watches. No game room and no library. Passengers play cards and read in eating areas. Top end specialty restaurant (Eden) is focussed more on its novelty show with costumed characters than on a solid dining experience. It is not worth a subsequent visit with a $65.00 cover charge. It does not compare to Murano on Solstice class ships at $50.00. Fine Cut Steak House is comparable to Tuscan Grille on Solstice class ships, but why is it $55.00 vs. $45.00 for Tuscan Grille? In conclusion, this was NOT A BAD cruise. Every Celebrity enthusiast should experience this ship. BUT, as long as the Solstice class is available, that is where I'll cruise.

Maiden Voyage

January

Pros: The vessel is beautiful & there was a warm feeling. Staff made us feel part of the family

Cons: It took too long to disembark. Passengers we’re getting very upset

Recommended: No

Mixed feelings

January

Pros: beautiful public spaces, superb food and service

Cons: new infinite verandah is just a window

Recommended: Yes

I love this new ship's public spaces - airy, modern, spacious, beautifully designed and appointed. The cabins themselves are also lovely. BUT - the new highly-touted 'infinite verandah' is nothing more than a floor-to-ceiling window that opens. The far end of the cabin has a small space defined by folding clear glass doors that delineate the 'verandah' space. It holds two deck chairs and a small table. Then there's the window, with a shade that pulls up and down by pushbutton. So, you cannot go out on the verandah to see the view without flooding the entire room with light. And since there's a ceiling as well as side walls, it's really just a window. Disappointing! I would sail on this ship again, but I wouldn't pay a premium for it.
