Additional details
Having cruised Celebrity from Southampton for the last 5 years, we chose the September cruise to the Med because of its itinerary, we normally go earlier in the summer.
The ship continues to look better than others newly refurbed although she is due hers early next year. Food was awesome and we struggled to choose most nights in the MDR. The crew were fantastic!
Only gripes I would have was that our 15 yr old son was the only teenager on this cruise so struggled to keep himself entertained as most of the teen activities were cancelled, but he still had a great time. The lawn Grill food was excellent along with the service but left us a tad cold regarding the cost and that the menu didn't have chips to go with a wonderful steak, so ordered a baked potato, only to find that I could have ordered them anyway, why not state this on the menu? Please Celebrity lets stop the Café Bacho becoming a library on sea days!? If folks aren't taking a coffee/tea etc they should be moved on, not be allowed to sit for hours just reading a book!
Cabin Review
Deluxe Veranda 1A
Clean, tidy and well appionted, we like deck 7 and tend to book the same cabin/area each year.
Port Reviews
Marseille
We should have researched this port of call more to see the sights but had a great walk round the old City
La Spezia (Cinque Terre)
Beautiful place loved this tour!
Corsica (Ajaccio)
Very busy, market on at the time which was interesting as was Napoleons house!
Barcelona
Self tour of a beautiful City, very clean with loads to see and buy!
Lisbon
One of my favourite destinations, a walk through the centre and the narrow lanes with a stop at Napoleons Port shop, where we were very well looked after with many tastings of different ports etc, and of course bought a few! We will definately go back!
