Celebrity Ascent Reviews
View Cruise DealsFabulous food, staff and facilities. a wonderful ship and cruise - thank you
Beautiful ship, friendly staff and service. Best shows/entertainment I have experienced at sea, and the food was excellent, with plenty of choice. However, it's a "big ship" with thousands of people, and on sea days ("unless you get up at the crack of dawn") getting a sunbed with a little shade, or even a seat on the sun deck, or around the pool areas could be a fruitless challenge.
A no hassle care free vacation booked with Iglu. Monica n Chris are better then my own family taking out n dealing with my techno fobia. I learned how to use the 24hr helpline chat about any of my booking concerns, chris came back with very direct promot responses with links of assistance. I learned how to print ,take care to remember passwords, find alternatives to a better understanding in 2026. Book with Iglu its slightly different but its like an agent chatting to you ,sometimes it gets in a loop n then u just raise a ticket n it still goes in a loop only because I was avoiding my action. Have to follow links, log in create pathways. Give yourself time n good reading glasses as the print on these e mails was a bit trying. With celebrity its nothing but 10* in all departments n I mean it. I am a very auditor type individual I look for something to report gaps in any system. I can only write with confidence nothing to correct A* n book because if u dont u r the loser in this short life on this beautiful planet. Enjoy life
The ship and staff were first class. Cabin lovely and food very good. Entertainment was also good. Overall no complaints
Amazing all round cruise, from the cleanliness of the ship. Friendly , helpful staff. Good choice of food. Excellent entertainment.
Just returned from a 10night Southern Caribbean cruise on the wonderful Celebrity Ascent. The ship was amazing with a fantastic choice of dining options, absolutely first class buffet, endless quality entertainment, amazing Spa and most importantly, the service from staff was faultless. There was also never a shortage of loungers on board or seating areas - as quiet or busy as you prefer. We sampled the speciality dining in Fine Cut, Raw on 5, Rooftop Garden Grill and Le Voyage. All we're excellent but to be honest, the 4 A La Carte dining options were all extremely high quality. Upgrading to the premium drinks package was worth every penny - definitely must to keep control of your account!! Shore excursions were a little pricey but the 2 we booked were certainly very good - especially the local tour and rum tasting in Antigua. I could write a endless review but the best way is just to book a holiday on the Celebrity Ascent and see for yourself.
We have cruised with Celebrity several times before and have always found them to be wonderful. However Ascent was our 1st time on the Edge class and we were blown away by the fabulous design and decor onboard. The attention to detail is amazing. The restaurants are all wonderful offering fantastic quality food. The entertainment on board is amazing and there are several places where you can sit and listen to music- something for everyone. The martini bar is in the heart of the ship and has a great atmosphere. There are two small plunge pools along with the main pool and an indoor one. The spa is a lovely area should you want treatment’s although they are quite expensive. Wonderful coffee lounge where you can sit and watch the world go by. We would definitely recommend Celebrity and will be returning as soon as we can!
2nd time holidaying on the beautiful ship. Complete luxury with amazing staff who were always professional but friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Looking to book again on this ship, so that says it all
First cruise and we are hooked The retreat area was brilliant Service and staff could not do enough for you Highly recommend it
The ship was fantastic especially the quality of the cabin we had, which was a Stateroom Balcony. The only disappointment was the quality of the food, as the steak in the steak restaurant wasn't very good and the signature restaurants were all the same type of food cooked differently. Most of the staff were friendly, especially the cleaning staff. Overall a very good experience on the Ascent. In one of the bars, which specialised in Whisky, one of the waiters did not know what malt whiskey was!!
