As members of Captains Club and Concierge Club we were well looked after eg heli pad for sail in / away with drinks. Nice drinks gatherings/ events . Thank you. 👏
Entertainment very good.
Milos, the naturalist lecturer a fantastic and different asset.
Ocean view food excellent.
Good selection of excursions though mark up was high compared to walking off ship and paying at venue.
Upcoming Refurb is good news as rooms a little tired.
Shame glass blowing being removed as it is something different on a ship -it was booked up and popular. -being replaced with yet another restaurant
Dining in main restaurant Epernay - service good but menu limited and dull and repetitive eg spaghetti bolognese/ chicken or steak and chips. Only 2 evenings of 7 felt like fine dining at end of week.
French Rosé for drinks package had run out for whole cruise .
Celebrity starting to feel like $$$ to eat well- need to go to speciality restaurants @ $60 + extra pp .
