Creator's Key Takeaways

We're stepping on this ship and setting sail on a 7 night Caribbean voyage.

Celebrity is um sophisticated, chill vibe kind of a thing, I would say.

That Bora brunch was absolutely delicious.

It was so good. It was I think they called it mainstage because it was popular songs or hits from different genres and different eras.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Check out all four main dining rooms if one has a long line.
Get off the ship early on port days to secure spots at beach clubs.
Pre-book excursions and ship activities ahead of time for better prices.

YouTube Video Description

Celebrity Xcel is Celebrity Cruises' stunning newest ship — and we're taking you aboard for the full experience! Join us, Judy & Marc, as we sail one of the very first voyages on this brand-new Edge-class ship and show you everything from embarkation to our final night onboard. In this full cruise experience we explore the ship, tour our stateroom, try the food, and take you inside some of Xcel's brand-new spaces — including brunch at Bora, the gorgeous new Mediterranean venue everyone's talking about, and a fantastic farewell dinner at The Bazaar. We also experienced the entertainment and so much more across the ship. Our itinerary took us to two incredible ports. In Cozumel we visited the brand-new Kuza Beach Club, and in Grand Cayman we swam with the stingrays — an unforgettable bucket-list experience. Come along for all of it!
