The Retreat - Celebrity Cruises' Suite Experience Overview
Key Moments
Editorial Summary
The creator provides a detailed overview of The Retreat, an all-inclusive luxury suite experience on Celebrity Cruises' Edge series ships. After sailing in a Sky Suite on the Celebrity Edge, the creator describes the specific amenities of the accommodations, including contemporary decor, electric curtains controlled via smartphone, and large bathrooms featuring unique sliding mirrors. The experience extends beyond the stateroom to include exclusive access to the Retreat Lounge, a private sundeck with a pool and bar, and the Lumini restaurant, which offers menus featuring dishes from Michelin star chefs. Service is a central component, highlighted by the presence of a personal Retreat Host to assist with various needs and a dedicated concierge team. The creator concludes that while the upfront cost of a suite is higher, the included value of premium drinks, streaming Wi-Fi, and onboard credits makes the upgrade a worthwhile consideration for many travelers. The video suggests that the luxury of The Retreat may change how passengers view future cruise bookings.

Creator's Key Takeaways
I'm Bill from Cru habit.com and recently we cruised The Retreat on Celebrity Edge so we thought we'd share our experience and the retreat with you
the only downside is that it may have ruined us for future cruises
this really made us consider splurging on a suite in the future something we honestly not considered up to this point
do the math and don't dismiss the additional cost as there is a lot of value added in the retreat
