Celebrity Cruises - Celebrity Ascent Reviews

Celebrity Ascent is top notch. The captain was the best captain that we’ve had in 40 years of cruising. It flows from the top down resulting in an outstanding staff. We loved the four themed dining rooms which made the ship seem smaller. The food was generally very good. Our Cruise out of Rome to Greece and Turkey provided wonderful days of adventure. After a good dinner, we went to the shows. The entertainment was also excellent. The cruisers were international and the ship buzzed with laughter and fun throughout the ship in the evenings! I highly recommend the Celebrity Ascent for couples in their 20s up to fit 70 year olds.

Excellent. Ship was great. Food was good

Enjoyed ship facilities, activities, food, staff and entertainment. Only negative is "creaking" infinite windows when seas are above about 7-10' wave height. This creaking disturbs the nights sleep. Based upon conversations with fellow passengers, his "creaking" problem is not new. RCCL is clearly aware of this problem and listened to our complaint, but could not provide a solution. One work around is to slightly open the window. The noises occur primarily when the window is fully closed (raised). The drawback is that air conditioning ceases to operate and the balcony blind must be fully raised which admits outside light and air. Fortunately during our transatlantic cruse waves were not high more than a few days and outside temperatures were cool which did not significantly impact sleep environment.

Outstanding, fun where the Captain and crew provided us all with a memorable crusie.

We took our first Celebrity cruise on Celebrity Accent and it was an amazing cruise. I would definitely sail with Celebrity again.

The Ascent was beautiful and like new. Our suite was great. I can’t say enough good things about The staff. Always upbeat, smiling and willing to go out of their way to help. The entertainment was excellent. The only drawback was we could have been more knowledgeable about what our plan included before we got on the ship. A highlight was the tour of the whole ship the first morning at sea … better than the excursions!

Ship was lovely. Entertainment was great! Weather could have been better hahaha cloudy and windy a lot. Drink service could have been better. Didn't necessarily take who was next but who they wanted to serve. Infinite veranda was locked by captain often, due to winds I guess. Would be nice if that feature was mentioned before booking. Might consider going back to traditional balcony next time. Overall cruise was enjoyed.

Planned a trip with 3 friends that haven't seen each other in 30 years....a great reunion

Nice 9 night cruise on new Celebrity Ascent

Beautiful ship, awesome itinerary

Not enough words to express this once in a lifetime trip. We relaxed in luxury for the Atlantic crossing and stopped at the highlights of Portugal, Spain, France, and Italy. So much history to see, so little time. Bring your best walking shoes and a barrel of energy, there is so much to see and do on every port. Prepare for crowds, I phrased it a sea of humanity washing over streets of antiquity. Loved it is a poor description, but says it all.

The cruise is excellent. Everyone of the restaurants is good. Excellent food and service. Enjoyed all the shows also.

The Ascent is a gorgeous ship with a wonderful staff.

Fabulous vacay to San Juan, Tortola, St Kitts, Nevis. Tortola was my favorite; it is a beautiful place! Our room on the 7th deck at the very back (AFT) of ship was lovely. We had a sunset open veranda! We even laid out two of the days and didn't have to fight overcrowded pool areas! A beautiful new ship with good shows, great food & service! Our only disappointment was a Celebrity excursion on St Kitts described as a Coastal boat ride (never saw the coast) and it took an hour back & forth to get to the beach. Old rickety boat with terrible smelly exhaust and very noisy! Included 3 drink tickets. But had to buy water & pop for $3 each! The life preservers looked faded, worn and rotten. Crappy boat! ? if you got drunk like a few of the younger people did on the way back you probably didn't notice...the excursion said there would be a steel drum band....only one guy playing & we couldn't hear him because we were at the back of the noisy engined boat. I think they said it was a 90 ft boat...but it was a horrible experience!!! I prayed we'd make it back to St Kitts! We did. Otherwise Celebrity was outstanding! They should delete this particular excursion for sure. Classless junk!

Everything on the actual cruise was great. The only thing I would do different going forward would be to NOT book Celebrity Shore Excursions. Ours was crowded and overpriced. Big delays (40 minutes) to even leave the meeting location.

Everything went smoothly from getting onto to the ship to getting off the ship! Well planned out. Decor, staff, entertainment was incredible !

Celebrity Ascent! Over the Top. When i booked this trip I really was not concerned with the Ports, I've seen them all. What I wanted was a week of pampering and entertainment. I got what I wanted.. The staff, the ship and the entertainment were all stellar. The specialty restaurants were all worth the extra costs.

Beautiful ship , great service and excellent attention from all on the crew, the different food selection at the buffet was awesome everyday they had a surprise on the menu. We, all in our group of 4 couples had a wonderful time to bad it lasted only 7 days.. John Muñoz

The ship was elegant, the food diverse and delicious, and the service provided by the crew was over the top!!! Once again, Simona at Avoya travel assisted us in finding an exceptional cruise vacation!!!
