There is a good assortment of suites most of which have private balconies and separate bedrooms. On Dawn, for example, at very top end you might select her spectacular 5,350 square foot "garden villa" suite complete with living room, dining room, three bedrooms, whirlpool tub and garden with a hot tub, outdoor dining area and terrace (it's true!). And there's butler service too. It simply does not get better than this for families or a group of friends). But no matter which accommodation style you choose, you'll find your surroundings, bright, cheerful and comfortable.

Atmosphere

NCL has created a world of options for their guests, which contributes mightily to shipboard atmosphere of family holiday fun, relaxation, personal freedom and romance. Wide open spaces and small private hideaways. Sheer glass walls and views stretching to ends of earth. Coconut body polishes at Mandara Spa. Warm cognac and hand rolled cigars, beer and a game in sports bar. Special clubs just for kids. "And so very much more".

Dining

Food is a very big part of cruising, and in this area, NCL is in a league of its own. Along with wide assortment of cuisine found on every ship, there are added treats and variations on theme. A wickedly sinful Chocoholic Buffet, a President's Menu, designed by Henry Haller, former White House Executive Chef, tasty children's menus, Healthy selections from Cooking Light magazine with low fat, low cholesterol and low calorie suggestions. Meals taken in main dining rooms are included, however there is an additional charge for meals enjoyed in specialty restaurants.

Entertainment

The good times roll as lavish entertainment fills night with pizzazz. Broadway style theatre and snazzy productions in grand scale showrooms, cabaret singers and comics in lounges. Dancing at Dazzles. Hot Latin rhythms and latest tunes in disco. The slap of cards and "rat-a-tat-tat" of roulette wheel in sizzling casino. NCL hosted cocktail parties for honeymooners, singles and past guests. Is there a more exciting place to be in evening than on a ship at sea, ablaze with lights, overflowing with music and sound of happy laughter?

Accommodations

Accommodation is of all stripes, truly wide-ranging with owner's suites, penthouse suites, family suites, ocean-view staterooms and inside staterooms (many adjoining and family-friendly). Ocean-view and inside staterooms have two lower beds, bathroom with shower, refrigerator, safe, TV radio and phone. Some also offer a sitting area and many of ocean-view staterooms have private balconies or large picture windows.

Public Rooms and Facilities

A veritable parade! Public areas vary by ship with larger, newer ships having greatest preponderance. A general list includes restaurants, lounges, bars (including coffee, champagne and wine venues), and pub. Also an internet café, sports deck with basketball, volleyball, golf driving net, beauty salon, fitness center, walking/jogging track, card room, cinema, video arcade, pool(s), lap pool, kid pool, hot tubs, and even a snorkeling program.

Mandara Spa

There’s poetry to be found in perfect symmetry of grace and strength, which is hallmark of Celebrity’s trim, powerful ships. The ships are designed for your complete fulfillment and beauty is in every detail. In every painting and sculpture, in foyers so grand they resemble Venetian courtyards, in exotic fabrics tinted to rich jewel tone colors, in handsome accommodation, and in sophisticated restaurants and stylish lounges and bars. Polished mahogany, etched glass, soft leather and crisp linen harmonize with immaculately maintained public areas and perfectly prepared staterooms.

Celebrity's Fleet

No matter which ship you choose, on every Celebrity cruise you will visit enchanting destinations- starting with your ship itself. Ranging in size from approximately 47,000 tons (Horizon, Zenith) right up to 91,000 tons (Millennium, Constellation, Infinity, and Summit) Celebrity offers greater facilities and more accommodation with verandas than ever before. In fact, we'd say facilities are nothing short of dazzling. For example, ethereal Olympic Restaurant on Millennium has intricate, original walnut paneling from White Star Line's ship, RMS Olympic, covering walls.

The Atmosphere

La dolce vita. Park Avenue elegance. Softly glowing chandeliers. Soothing music. The art of flambé, Aromatic stones, and exotic jasmine flower baths in spa. A world where all that you wish for is anticipated and all that you expect is exceeded. Imagine one of most romantic nights of your life, and then multiply it by length of your Celebrity cruise.

The Service

Grace and civility are not entirely of past. Expect seamless, professional, sensitive care from ultra-accommodating staff whose adept handling of minuscule details are very definition of unobtrusive blue ribbon service. European-trained dining room personnel are to be particularly admired and you can count on sommelier to provide perfect cabernet to accompany your chateaubriand.

The Dining

In an environment of consummate charm graced with very best in china, silver, newly pressed white linens and crystal, delicious repasts from world-renowned chef, Michel Roux are exquisitely presented in fetching main dining rooms. Celebrity's pre-eminent cuisine reflects their dedication to providing all guests, including those with particularly educated and discriminating palates, with finest food that land and sea has to offer.

Cuisine is as wholesome as it is imaginative. Every dish is prepared using only freshest herbs and ingredients, and even breads and sorbets are made from scratch. In addition there's a wonderful variety of lean and light, vegetarian and special children's selections. On occasion, perhaps you'd enjoy a more casual dining experience, in which case you would have choice of a specialty restaurant, grill or café where selection is every bit as tempting as that served in posh restaurants.
