Editorial Summary
The creators evaluate the value of booking The Retreat on Celebrity Cruises by detailing various advantages and disadvantages experienced during their trip. They highlight several pros, including the high quality of dining at Luminae, the extensive list of perks such as premium Wi-Fi and drinks, and the convenience of having a dedicated butler and concierge. They also praise the priority embarkation and disembarkation processes and the aesthetic design of the sun deck and lounge areas. Regarding the cons, the creators note that the Retreat does not offer a true ship within a ship experience as amenities are spread across different floors. They also discuss minor inconveniences, such as the lack of coffee and tea in Sky Suites, the inability to order Luminae specialty dining via room service, and the higher price point compared to other cruise lines. Despite these points, the creators conclude that the experience is worth the cost and express their intention to sail with Celebrity again in the near future.
