Celebrity Cruises

General

Who We Are

Celebrity is different. As in “you'll never want to vacation any other way” kind of different. Every detail is elevated beyond what you ever thought a vacation could be. You’ll enjoy the intimate feel and thoughtful service of a smaller ship, the variety and excitement of a bigger one, and experiences you won’t find anywhere else. So, if you want to explore the world or get away from it for a little while, Nothing Comes Close to Celebrity Cruises.

Our Fleet

World-class architects, interior designers, and landscape artists have created the most inspiring spaces at sea- our fleet. Step on board and discover spaces that engage on every level.

Life Onboard

Your batteries need a recharge, but you want to be out and about. Choose from our uncanny resort deck, one of a kind lawn club, or chic rooftop terrace. Or, feel free to unwind poolside. Mozy into a hot tub or two before grabbing a bite and a drink at mast grill.

Why Celebrity

Celebrity Cruises exists because we believe in opening up the world. We know that travel makes us better-every one of us. We’re here to help vacationers understand the value of travel. Our cruises encourage people to sail beyond their own borders and expand their horizons.

There’s so much to look forward to on a Celebrity Cruises vacation. Spa days. Shore excursions. Cocktails before dinner (and after). Mouthwatering meals. We could go on. Cruise Planner helps you arrange every detail before you even set sail, so you can relax the minute you step aboard-and every minute that follows.

Celebrity Cares

We believe making our mark on the world means leaving less of a footprint. While we strive to provide you the best vacation possible, we also care about making positive changes in the lives of our guests and employees as well as sustaining the environment to leave the world a better place.

Ship

Celebrity Edge

Overview

Celebrity Edge, the first ship in our stunning Edge Series, is now one of the first resorts at sea to receive a Recommended Rating from Forbes Travel Guide. Celebrity Edge marks a turning point in our approach to ship design. From the very first sketches to experiencing those designs in a virtual reality setting, every step was done in 3-D. From the incredible new Magic Carpet to the private plunge pools in our new 2-story Edge Villas, we could design the most refined ship at sea. The unique outward facing design breaks from traditional ship design. Aboard, you’ll feel more connected with the sea and the places you’ll visit in a variety of spaces ranging from our Edge Staterooms with Infinite Verandas, to our reimagined, terraced pool deck that offers even greater views of the destinations and shimmer of ocean.

Celebrity Edge is sailing with Starlink - the world’s most advanced broadband satellite internet - to bring you high-speed connectivity for a better onboard experience.

Activities

Eden

Eden, like so many aspects of Celebrity Edge, represents another revolution in modern luxury travel. It's a space where nature is so present, we call it "a room that lives." It's an experience so multi-faceted and innovative, you won't find anything else like it as sea-or anywhere. And no two visits to Eden are ever the same.

Moveable Feast

Join Gail Simmons and Marcus Samuelsson aboard Edge for a Moveable Feast speciality cruise on December 8, 2019 in the warm and sunny Caribbean. Savor dishes specially curated by the chefs during our interactive Moveable Feast Night in the Main Restaurant and enjoy cooking demonstrations and private cooking classes, where you can pick up some of our experts' techniques.

Resort Deck

With its stunning, untraditionally asymmetrical main pool area, new Rooftop Garden, multi-level jogging track, and a reimagined Solarium, the Resort Deck is unlike any other outdoor space at sea. Or anywhere else on earth.

Pool Deck

Forget about old-school cruise ships, which typically set up rings of decks chairs to look inward at a swimming pool. On Celebrity Edge, our reinvented outward-facing Pool Deck make sweeping ocean views and landscapes the focal point.

Solarium

One of the most popular spots on every Celebrity ship, the Solarium has been reimagined by celebrated architect Tom Wright, who used the ocean as his inspiration for this adults-only sanctuary.

Magic Carpet

The industry-first Magic Carpet is both the best way to take in spectacular views and the most exciting place to be. By changing function and location, it provides an incredible array of visual perspectives and a distinct experience on every deck it visits.

Dining

Cosmopolitan Restaurant
We know our current main dining experience across our fleet is one of the reasons guests sail with us time and time again. To maintain this essence of the Celebrity dining experience on Edge, we created the Cosmopolitan Restaurant-the next evolution of our current main restaurants. The walk-through wine display at the entrance sets the scene for the creative cuisine within-new American with global influences.

Normandie Restaurant
With ties to our elegant Murano specialty restaurant on many of our ships and a nostalgic nod to Celebrity Summit (wooden panels from the ship are incorporated into the design), Normandie Restaurant features contemporary French cuisine in a modern, upscale, refined space that evokes the romance of springtime in Paris. Enjoy regional European wines, deliciously unique cocktails, tantalizing starters, and mouthwatering entrees.

Cyprus Restaurant
Dear to our hearts, this restaurant represents our Greek heritage. We wanted to create a stunning atmosphere that would represent the Mediterranean fare served here, so we worked with world renowned designer, Patricia Urquiola. In Cyprus, the menu's main focus is seafood and features simple, clean dishes that celebrate the food and beverages of the Mediterranean region.

Tuscan Restaurant
Step inside and discover the delicious ambiance - a modern classical design centered around Italian fashion and film. Savor mouthwatering cuisine inspired by authentic southern Italian eateries, featuring all homemade pastas prepared with a rustic flare.

Luminae is sumptuously designed by Kelly Hoppen and features daily changing menus not available in any other restaurant on board.

Destination

Australia

Cruising to Australia gives you the opportunity to enjoy a wide range of pleasures. From the Sydney Opera House to the Great Barrier Reef, you can see a variety of sites and sounds that range from metropolis to wilderness. Few locations on earth give you the opportunity to scuba dive in the world's largest coral reef and go on a shopping spree the same week. Most sailings leave from Sydney or Auckland, New Zealand. Cruises in Australia may visit Hobart, Melbourne, Sydney, or destinations around the continent and New Zealand.

Ports of Call

Auckland, New Zealand

City Auckland

New Zealand's largest city is draped over seven volcanoes and wrapped around Waitemata Harbour (meaning "sea of sparkling waters" in Maori). Despite its British feel, it is the world's largest Polynesian city. Shop for Polynesian crafts on Queen Street, the main drag. Or from atop Mt. Eden, overlook the "City of Sails," which will host the America's Cup races in 2000.

Bay of Islands (Paihia), New Zealand

City Paihia

Tauranga, New Zealand

City Tauranga

...It is no wonder why the region has become so popular, as it is safe, exciting, diverse, and warm.From touring in a four-wheel drive vehicle through the hills to swimming with the dolphins, Tauranga has it all.The hot springs are glorious, and you could spend an entire day and night lounging in the bubbling saltwater pools.They are truly magnificent, as are the restaurants and accommodations in Tauranga...

Napier, New Zealand

City Napier

Picton, New Zealand

City Picton

Wellington, New Zealand

City Wellington

...exquisite architecture, great museums, and fabulous dining establishments.The accommodations and amenities in Wellington are superb, and during the summer there are many hot beach spots...

Christchurch, New Zealand

City Christchurch

Christchurch was founded in 1850 by members of the Church of England, who wanted a little bit of heaven on earth. They succeeded, and today the city takes great pride in its spacious layout and distinctive English-style buildings in elegant grey stone. The River Avon winds through Christchurch, along parks and gardens that cover one third of the city.

Dunedin, New Zealand

City Dunedin

Dunedin is actually a collection of small towns, great sights, and enjoyable atmospheres.The flora and wildlife are plentiful, and Dunedin is loaded with wonderful historic buildings and fabulous architecture.

Doubtful Sound, New Zealand

Doubtful Sound located in a World Heritage Area, is an overwhelming place. You can feel the power of nature here - the remoteness, the wildness and the peace. Known for its wilderness and wildlife, Doubtful Sound is the second largest of the 14 fiords in Fiordland National Park and it is three times longer and 10 times larger than Milford Sound.

Dusky Sound, New Zealand

Milford Sound, New Zealand

City Milford Sound

Milford Sound is simply stunning. In Maori legend, the fiords were created not by rivers of ice, but by Tu Te Raki Whanoa, a godly figure who came wielding a magical adze and uttering incantations. Milford Sound (Piopiotahi) is without doubt his finest sculpture. Whatever the fiord's mood, teeming with rain or with sun glistening on deep water, it will inspire you.

Sydney, Australia

City Sydney

Sydney is Australia''s showcase: the oldest settlement, the largest and most thriving city, the cultural melting pot. It curves around idyllic Port Jackson, where sandstone cliffs and bright islands complement the Opera House and Harbor Bridge. Wander the cobbled colonial streets of the historic Rocks quarter, or tour the mansions of Watson''s Bay.
