Creator's Key Takeaways

We've been to this port. This is our third time.

I will say that we noticed that uh bottles of water were $5. Um, a burger was $16 at options for tacos.

This is the celebrity touch right here. You don't get this on all cruise lines. This is why we love celebrity.

He's really, really good. Highly recommend y'all go see this show.

✓Be aware that port opening times can change if the ship arrives early.

✓Bring your own floats for the lazy river.

✓If you have mobility issues, consider using the free tuk tuks (but tip the drivers).

✓Only certain credit cards are accepted at port vendors; have cash or Visa as backup.
