3/2025 - Celebrity Edge provides the best shows among all cruise ships we have taken at many different areas like a main theater, EDEN and, etc., which made us not boring at all during the entire cruise period, in addition, it offers the best buffet daily. The main dish at three main dining restaurants each night is so so...or not impressive, for example, the giant and think pork chop looks so cool, but upon a bite, stop eating... The cuppucino at Café al Bacio is still the best. read more

The wife and I cruised on the Celebrity Edge the second week of June, on an Alaskan voyage. We paid, via Celebrity, for a round trip bus ride to and from the SeaTac airport. This was a great deal, as far as we were concerned. Once we made it to the cruise line's bus terminal we never had to handle our luggage. We had purchased the drink package ahead of time and hit up the Martini Bar first, and then meandered around the ship exploring the layout. We are not yearly cruisers, with this being our 4th cruise and our first on Celebrity. This ship was by far the most beautiful as well as laid out ship we had been on. It had a very elegant, contemporary design to it. The main dining restaurants, as well as the buffet (Oceanview Cafe) were easily located and accessible when we chose to go. The food, both at the restaurants and buffet, was exceptional with a wide variety to choose from. There were many favorites on our list from the dining restaurants, including melt in your mouth Oxtail, French onion soup, salmon, etc. If you want a fun experience pay a little extra to eat one time at Le Petite, an interactive dining experience. Each restaurant and lounge had their own specialty cocktail offerings and were well made by every bartender. They had two pool areas, including one in an enclosed solarium. Even on a sea day when everyone was on board you could find a place to sit an relax. The entertainment was excellent and they had many, many, things to watch or participate in throughout the day if inclined. Our cabin was well maintained and the steward assigned our cabin cleaned it twice a day. The standard room was plenty big enough, with a fairly spacious bathroom. The shower stall was plexiglass enclosed with ample room. In the common areas of the ship there were many, easily accessible, restrooms, which were never crowded and also very well maintained. Lastly, Celebrity offered luggage service from your room to the airport which include checking it in for us. We did not have to handle the luggage on debarkation day and never saw our luggage again until we landed in Ontario, CA, which included one plane change. TLDR - It is a beautiful ship, great food, drinks and entertainment. We would cruise on the Celebrity Edge again, or maybe any of Celebrity's Edge class ships. read more

Took a cruise on the edge a while back and is still my favorite to this day! So many amenities and just had the best time.

Okay let me begin stating I'm not a travel agent what do I have any affiliation to celebrity or their parent Royal Caribbean Cruise line. I'm just an average Joe customer, I travel 50% for business in the average year and we like to cruise. I'm in my 50s and I have sailed with my spouse on 68 Ocean voyages across several cruise lines... I've sailed out of Japan, in the Mediterranean, countless times in the Caribbean, Mexico and Alaska. Plus one Panama canal Transit. We have well over 200 days at sea... Our favorite cruise lines at present are Disney and Celebrity. So the Edge was launched in 2018 with a cost of about $900 million. The inflation adjusted replacement cost is 1.2 billion for a ship that's 1,004 ft long on 130,000 tons with a max capacity of about 3,500 passengers. According to Captain Kate it's the most expensive ship of its size. For the money I would say it's rather exceptional and very much to our liking. Where to begin? I'd like to say that Cruz staff into cosmopolitan main dining room, the sailing that began July 17th, 2011 at table 333 with Dewy and Queenie was expert professional, gushing with courtesy and attention... Zero missed opportunities and deserving of our highest recommendation! My spouse and I were in cabin 8,313, and our daughters and 9,115. Our cabin stewards were exceptionally polite attentive with no missed opportunities to impress. We had negatively questions and issues which were instantly resolved and rendered inconsequential. To be fair all of our staff contacts from having a word with the maintenance guy on the window washing scaffold who is painting rust inhibitor as he rolled past our cabin... To the frequent contacts with staff into buffet cafe roaming the floor and serving portions.... To even include the numerous staff who were just walking by sprinkling smiles, a word of good afternoon or good evening to us, or to many occasions when staff would pause and ask with sincere and patient timing how are cruise is going? We've only recently started sailing celebrity... The prior sailing was on the millennium out of Alaska. That was impressive... However the Edge is easily on a level that matches and actually exceeds any Disney cruise ship! We typically pay twice as much to sail on Disney and they are far distance ahead of competitors. We found most of the entertainment to be impressive for technical reasons as well as for the sheer power of their performances. We had a magician whom I think was named Joel? We had a vocalist for 2 performances, (tribute to Aretha Franklin and a montage of classic hits) ... Who performed with her daughter... Her voice was powerful and impressive. She carried on her performances with an aura all her own. Then there was the ships' production dancers and orchestra. The dancers had precision and grace. From the audience you can tell the orchestra which consisted of maybe seven or eight instrumentalists was charismatic, and right on the beat! Our daughters love celebrity because they love the quality, variety, presentation in cuisine. They loved everything about the dining. The only specialty restaurant we visited was Raw on five... We went in twice. They also earned maximum marks for service and cuisine. Almost every day our daughters asked if we could go back in to raw on five. So the ship itself boasted some features and changes to the mix of expectation that nudge it higher and higher, further ahead of all competitors except Disney who put on a race to the finish line against them. I love the fact it's not like carnival with a loudspeaker from the bridge inside the room. The only time we heard Bridge announcements were on debarcation day (speaker on verandah. Some might quip certain design elements strike You as coming from IKEA. No I think it's pretty obvious The level of quality is a healthy cut above. It is contemporary, and innovative... And dare I say it really strikes you just right as being simply beautiful again and again and again all over the ship. Taking a step back for objective comparison... Other ships are just simply tacky. Other ships are just heavy-handed with their design elements. Most other ships have a ship's library... This one doesn't on the edge. In fact on Deck 3 they have intentionally left a segment of the wall revealing the interior structure of the hull? That's innovative thinking That's really cool for those with any kind of engineering or construction background. Captain Kate, we missed her at the captain's club reception... However we met her in the theater, at the captain's talk and on the debarcation ramp. Her presentation in the "Meet captain Kate" talk was insightful, Entertaining and impressive. Our impression was that she was innovative and groundbreaking... The first American woman to captain a major cruise ship ... it's quite an accomplishment. Her cat, Bud Naked is it real charmer. At any rate we will be going back specifically to sail The Edge again... You should too! read more

Best ship I have ever sailed. I truly believe this ship suits me and my hubby the best. It was like it was created for us with all our favorite things rolled up into one. Let's start with the decor and colors of navy blue and orange. Once onboard we get a drink on the Magic Carpet which is beautifully done with the accent color if orange. Of course bottles of Veuve Cliquot to match prominently displayed in their matching orange ice buckets. From their I head to our cabin I definitely do not want to leave. The bathroom is all marble a d generously sized shower. The bedding is nice and comfy accented in purple and beige. Definitely need to redecorate when I get home. The TV choices are many including first run movies included. I have zero time for any TV at home and they even have my beloved HGTV. So on to the important stuff the food. It would probably take me more than one cruise to try everything but we tried. We had brunch on one sea say at the Le Grand bistro this included lobster tails and crab. Mimosas were flowing which lend itself to a nice afternoon nap. Instead of one main dining room there is four to choice from Tuscan,Cosmopolitan,A French one and a Greek one their names escape me right now. Tonight we have reservations on our last night for the steakhouse called Fine Cut. Now for breakfast I have always sworn the dining room but their buffet at the Oceanview cafe the choices were numerous as well as many items are made to order. I had a two egg omelette yesterday with fresh veggies that had me thinking about it all day this included the fresh asparagus and jalapeno just the perfect amount nothing overwhelmed the other ingredients. In the gym they had my favorite Pure Barre classes. But for today more lounging in the Solarium just the joy of peace and quiet. I love this ship and lucky for me I have booked Apex it's sister ship coming out next year. read more

We have recently returned from an Inaugural Caribbean Cruise on the Celebrity Edge. Although we prefer smaller ships,we thought we would give this new ship a try. From the beginning we were wowed by the smooth and quick boarding process. The Celebrity App allowed us to expedite boarding with their Express Pass. After a short wait in a lounge, we went right on board and to our cabin to drop off our carry-ons. Booking a Sky Suite was the best thing we did. It allowed us to avoid crowds by using their specific Luminae Restaurant and The Retreat which had their own bar, pool, sunning area, jacuzzi and lounge. As a suite holder they allowed us to try all the dining rooms, even Bleu. The food and service was exceptionally good in all the Main Dining Rooms as well as Luminae and The Buffet. We did not care for the food and service at the Specialty Restaurant, Raw Bar. Our suite and bathroom were wonderfully spacious! The beds were firm but very comfortable. Our Butler and Steward gave excellent service. The shopping on the ship was limited to very expensive jewelry stores, and a handbag and liquor store. The Shopping Guide on the ship is fantastic. You not only learn of how to save on Port Shopping but she gives away lots of merchandise to those attending who sit in he front rows! The coupons given out are well worth it. Although many complained, we were in awe of the modernistic theater built in the round. The performers were excellent. The shows were as good as any we have seen on Broadway. On the Chic Nights which were evenings of Sea Days, Suite Members have reserved seating in the balcony of the theater. We preferred sitting downstairs and three rows back. It really made a difference in viewing the shows. The Spa was enormous and full of modern equipment and new services usually not offered on ships. You have to at least take a tour of it. Book exercise classes the first day as they close out quickly. Great reduced deals for the Spa are offered at the free seminars. Disembarkation was a breeze! It was so fast getting off the ship,collecting our luggage, and going through customs. It all took no more than 30 minutes. We loved the cruise but wish the Trivia was the old way. It used to be a great way to make friends on the cruise. We missed Bingo as well. Dancing on the ship was limited. All in all it was a great cruise and beautiful ship with an excellent crew and staff. read more

Let me start with a disclaimer that I am a non-cruiser. I've been on one other cruise in my entire life 10 years (Carnival Fascination). When I think of cruising I think of all the typical stereotypical stuff like ugly neon lights, nautical decor, cheesy shows and bad food. The newest ship to the Celebrity family is a game-changer, especially for people like me. We sailed a short 3-night preview cruise from Ft. Lauderdale to Nassau. The decor in the ship is impeccably designed from the bathrooms to the chairs to the restaurants. Gone are the days where you're required to sit at the same table each night to eat. There are like 20 different restaurant/bars/coffee shops on the ship for you to explore. The food overall is very good considering you're on a ship. The specialty restaurants we tried (Luminae and Le Petit Chef we're both excellent). I would definitely say this is more of an adult focused ship as there's no crazy water slides or flow rider or go karts, etc. It's for eating, drinking, and sleeping, the three food groups of cruising! Fave bar, hands down, was the Martini Bar, which seasoned Celebrity cruisers will be quite familiar with (no ice bar here though). Great bartenders, all from Indonesia, with their fancy tricks like pouring 6 martinis all at once. If you've never had a pickle martini try it here! Celebrity ships are not known for their entertainment/shows and I could definitely see the attempts made to improve upon this. The Eden performers were....interesting, but made me feel weird. There was also a band one night that sang a lot of Bruno Mars. Another night was a comedian. My favorite was probably the Silent Disco Party. It's just funny taking off your headphones and not hearing any music, but seeing people dancing and/or singing at the top of their lungs. We splurged on a sky suite since this would be the least expensive way to enjoy a suite with the Retreat amenities on a 3-night cruise versus a 7-night. I will say it was well worth it, to have access to Luminae, which had significantly better food than the included restaurants (we tried Cosmopolitan). Also included with the suite amenities is access to The Retreat Lounge, Pool, and Sundeck, which are all at the front top deck of the ship. The main pool got really crowded on the day we had at sea, so it was nice to have our own secluded area. What's weird is that alcoholic drinks are included in the Lounge, but not at the Sundeck which is right upstairs. Kinda wish it would just be included since you're paying the premium. Would love to sail a Celebrity ship again! read more

So far I am not that impressed. I am used to the bigger ships like royal Caribbean harmony of the seas. When boarding at Fl Lauderdale port Everglades, you enter through the 5th floor which is like the area for auction and art gallery. You don't get to see an atrium or lobby. Have to mine our way to the guest relations which is a bit hard to locate. The ocean view cafe buffet has glass for Ceiling to floor which is very beautiful. The food at buffet is better than Royal Caribbean but not by that much as others stated online. The room we had was veranda but the sofa was stained. Not cool. Few other misses: the housekeeping is *really* bad. We noticed that the floor was not cleaned. We picked up debris and rice on the floor. Did they really vaccuum? Also, when we tried to replace the toilet paper with the new roll, we noticed that it was shriveled meaning it's was wet before. Then I noticed poop stain on one end. People must have dropped it in toilet and replace it. Gross!!!!!! Oh btw-the window component is loose as we hear the subtle popping sound whenever there is waves. And the expensive Wi-Fi we paid for is extremely slow compared to last year when we went on harmony of the seas. Other than that it feels very cramped and small in the whole ship. I wouldn't pay more than 3000 for 2 honestly. Not worth it especially it's not met my expectations. read more

As I begin this review fresh off a pre-inaugural sailing of the new Celebrity Edge I am hearing Lady Gaga's 'On The Edge' in my head. "I'm on the edge of glory And I'm hanging on a moment of truth" As the spanking new entry to the Celebrity fleet it was touted with a lot of press and high expectations. New ship. New terminal at Port Everglades. New design concept. For this experienced cruiser and his own high expectations, this voyage was full of moments of truth. The Edge not only did not disappoint, but it delighted me at every turn. There is too much to detail, so here are a few highlights: 1. The interiors are STUNNING! It was like walking into an issue of Architectural Digest with unlimited premium booze. 2. The ship has made a commitment to be 'zero landfill' meaning that the systems (double osmosis water filtration making your toilet water drinkable should you want (no judgment if you do)), turning waste into fuel, recycling everything including changing plastic water bottles to aluminum which are unlimited in their ability to recycled, rewarding the crew for recycling on board, etc. this ship is an environmental revelation. 3. Eden, a public space, restaurant, bar and entertainment space architecturally-based on Fibonacci principles is a place of magic. 4. The staterooms are sophisticated and thoughtfully designed to maximize storage for passengers while not sacrificing comfort. 5. The crew from officers to bartenders were all joyous and proud and so they should be. I'll stop gushing here. If you're a cruiser like me you get my drift and I look forward to my next voyage on the Edge or her sister ship to be released in 2020 the Apex. If you're not a cruiser or believe cruising isn't for you the Celebrity Edge will change your mind and have you singing: "I'm on the edge with you Oh, oh, oh, oh, Oh, oh, oh, on the edge with you" read more

Celebrity Edge is the newest ship out there. State of the art! I loved my week on her. Everything is sleek and new. Modern but tasteful touches throughout. New style of dining, with four different dining room restaurants to choose from. I'm not a fan of buffets on ships but this one blows it out of the water (no pun intended). Fantastic service everywhere! I would sail on her again tomorrow! Words do don't do her justice so please check out my photos of Celebrity Edge! Enjoy! read more

I am writing this post in protest of your inconsiderate, insensitive, cold-hearted policy, refusing to allow rescheduling of your cruises, at this time of global coronavirus epidemic, a horribly irresponsible policy which is putting people's actual lives at risk. My husband and I have scheduled a 7 night Caribbean cruise a few months ago for this March, long before the World Health Organization had announced the coronavirus is a global health emergency, on January 30th, 2020. Here are just some of the developments in the last few days: 1. Mexico, which is our main cruise destination (our itinerary has 2 port docking destinations planned there), . Link: https://apnews.com/a7d2aaac19fc3022ba686ba91e7d4395 2. On that same note, the US administration announced today they're considering "very strongly" shutting down the border with Mexico, due to the coronavirus hazard. Link: https://thehill.com/.../485297-trump-says-administration-is-v... 3. The State Department issued a travel advisory on the coronavirus, specifically referring to cruise ships, saying: "U.S. citizens travelling by ship may be impacted by travel restriction affecting their itineraries or ability to disembark, . Link: https://travel.state.gov/.../novel-coronavirus-hubei-province... 4. A few days ago, both Jamaica and Cayman Islands (which we also have a port docking planned in) had denied permission to disembark an MSC cruise ship, in fear of the coronavirus. Link: https://www.nytimes.com/.../02/25/tra.../cruise-ship-corona.html 5. In the event of even a single person showing coronavirus symptoms on the ship - the entire ship will be quarantined, holding all passengers in isolation for weeks, preventing them from going back to their families and jobs. I don't need to be a doctor, to understand that at utmost certainty. 6. Your coronavirus on-boarding protocols are counting on the knowledge, memory and honesty of the boarding passengers, in order to deny boarding of those who came in contact with people from coronavirus stricken countries over the last 15 days. Well, in this serious matter of life and death, it's just not good enough. We have contacted you numerous times over the last couple of days, practically begging you to reschedule our cruise. Not cancel, you get to keep our money. Just reschedule to a better time in the future, after this health risk passes. All we received were arbitrary responses, insensitive reciting of your refund policies, as if we're talking about a standard "I can't go" situation, and not a global health crisis. We have paid a lot of money for this cruise. Your passengers have worked hard, for a very long time, saving every dollar for their cruise. They can't just throw away their money in the trash. By insisting on your draconian policies, you are forcing them to put their lives and health at an actual risk. They will also have a very hard time enjoying their vacation constantly fearing for themselves, and at a high likelihood won't be able to disembark at the ports they've been planning to visit, due to this situation. This is our very first cruise with you. I have to say - never in my life have I seen such a selfish and greedy attitude, from any business or service I've ever used. read more

Been twice and I'd go again tomorrow if I could! This ship is like no other...the attention to detail and service are beyond. The art collection is probably my favorite thing after the food...so well done! read more

OMG we celebrated Easter on a beautiful cruise ship Celebrity Edge. And I don't know where to start this is an absolutely beautiful beautiful cruise ship. We don't Cruise a lot but have always picked celebrity and the edge has topped it All. The beautiful new ship has larger rooms to start with made a big difference. Everyone on the ship was GREAT.... Food was to die for.... All the entertainment was great the theater is huge. We stayed busy the full trip. We also booked two more . We will only cruise on the Celebrity Edge from now on. Thank you to all the hard workers that did A++++ JOB! read more

We went for a Mexican cruise on the Celebrity Edge in November 2022. Maybe it's because this ship had just returned from Europe or the Epic was having it's first cruise but, everything I asked for Mic Ultra, actual champagne, and bottled water, were always going to be available later. (Availability never happened ) Coupled with the fact that it could take 10-20 minutes to get a drink if you're lucky, It would have been appropriate if the 3 Stooges theme music was continuously playing in the background. The restaurants don't open until 8:00 for breakfast. When you do actually get service, it seems like you are inconveniencing the people serving you. None of the bars are open before 10:00. However, if you choose to eat breakfast at the buffet, you can get a Bloody Mary just as if you were actually on vacation. Based on the total lack of ship knowledge of many of the crew members, I'm guessing many of them were as new to this ship as we were. I've been on many other cruises in the past and this is the only one where I have not felt like a valued customer. What an utter disappointment. The ship was visually beautiful. Customer service on this ship was pitiful. I felt like Celebrity stole our money. Whatever Celebrity's internal issues my be, They have an obligation to deliver at least, good service. This service was unacceptable. read more

cruisers BEWARE... I am right now on a back to back cruise and I wouldnt be on the 2nd but they refused to refund my $ for 2nd cruise after the absolute disaster the 1st cruise was. 1st cruise my key card wouldnt work for my door , nor would it work so I could get off the ship to go walk around St Martin- I was daily at guest relations for 5 days getting a daily card exchange. I was and still am on the classic cruise perks - free soda pop, specialty teas, coffees, waters- day 1, and day 2 told no Im not , no I couldnt not have a bottle of water- so again I was at guest relations - it was finally fixed the day BEFORE the cruise was OVER. I ordered room service on day 3 but after waiting for 1 hr and no food I called enquiring- the gal called me back telling by accident my food was delivered to some other room . how HOW does this happen? today starting 2nd cruise in a upgraded Aqua spa room - my luggage didnt get moved from originally floor 7 to 9 - I waited and waited and kept calling- finally at 4p I got a call that my luggage is in SOME ELSES ROOM - 2 floors away - room # not remotely the same . I went to take a shower in the Cadillac of body wash apparatus - no water, I tried and tried and couldnt get it to work- I called and a maintenance guy showed up and fiddled with the knobs, levers and said its a major design flaw the button under the bottom handle- being now in Aqua I am suppose to have more guest service perks- room attendsant FINALLY after 4 days started bringing me daily water bottles and afternoon canapes . this 2nd trip every meal I ordered via room service was wrong- missing a ordered item or them bringing the wrong thing entirely. read more

Very poor start. Waiting in HUGE line for last minute covid testing of ALL passengers with no organization. Very hot in florida sun for elderly and kids especially. Celebrity Better offer HUGE refund on this cruise. read more

My family of nine and I are on the Celebrity Edge now. While the ship is beautiful and crew accommodating, there are so many bugs they need to work out. We made reservations for the specialty restaurants and spa well in advance of our excursion. Once we arrived, we found out they didn't have the correct reservations for dinner. The spa reservation was also incorrect and we had to take numerous trips to the spa just to straighten the mess out. So frustrating when you just want to relax and enjoy your trip onboard. Another negative is all the constant up selling and expense......if you want to eat here's, that's extra, if you want to do this, extra, if you want to drink this extra, if you schedule a spa visit, they want to upsell you on products or more treatments. It constantly feels like they are trying to get more money out of their guests. I would rather be charged more initially for the cruise and have some of these items included. Another downfall is that Celebrity cuts off a certain portion of the ship to accommodate suite guests only, which are approximately 15 percent of the passengers. So many pros to talk about too on the Edge. Beautiful ship from all angles. Every nook and cranny has something to offer in the way of views or seating. The staff couldn't be more accommodating and are willing to do anything for you. But finding wait staff for a drink around the pool both indoors and out is nearly impossible. The food on the Edge is absolutely fantastic. The buffet is ideal for grabbing breakfast, lunch or dinner. The pastries are better than most bakeries. We also tried the specialty restaurants. The Fine Cut Steakhouse was a miss. Two tries to get my filet medium and still wasn't right. The Grande Bistro's lunch buffet was a hit. From shrimp and crab to filet and beef bourguignon, the buffet was a feast for both the eyes and palate. The rooms and bathroom felt more spacious than other cruise ships. read more
