Editorial Summary

The creator provides a detailed review of a seven day cruise to Bermuda aboard the Celebrity Summit. She begins by highlighting the positive aspects of the experience, noting that the mid sized ship is in immaculate condition following its 2019 refurbishment. The creator praises the spaciousness of the cabins, the friendly and service oriented crew, and the relaxing atmosphere of the pool areas. She specifically recommends the martini bar for its talented bartenders and the various dining options, including the main dining room and the Ocean View Cafe buffet. Entertainment is also noted as a high point, particularly the live music found throughout the ship. However, the review also addresses several drawbacks. The creator expresses frustration with the limited functionality of the included basic Wi-Fi and notes the disappearance of certain menu items, such as the affogato, due to cost cutting measures. She also mentions the absence of complimentary welcome drinks during embarkation which she had experienced on previous cruises. The video concludes with a tip regarding future cruise deposits to secure onboard credits for subsequent voyages.

Creator's Key Takeaways

the celebrity summit honestly it does have a reputation you could read any review and it really has a reputation of having a very friendly crew hardworking of course but also just very service orientated

the wi-fi is really not very good now i know cruise ship wi-fi is overall not great however what i mean is the wi-fi that is included

they have a phenomenal beef wellington it is so good and they had lobster tail that was another dish

the basic wi-fi basically only allowed me to kind of look at my emails i was standing next to somebody who had trouble even updating her emails

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Put a future cruise deposit on your future cruise to get extra onboard credit
βœ“Upgrade your wi-fi before you get on the ship to avoid long lines
