Celebrity Summit Bermuda Photo Gallery

Did not love sailing out of Port Liberty, Bayonne, NJ for a variety of
reasons, but the Summit was a good reliable ship for the Bermuda run
and we had surprisingly calm seas. Some signs of wear and tear on the
ship but nothing bad. I do think the quality of X food has been going
down a bit for sure (consistent w my X impressions over the past 2
years and 3 other X cruises) and I'd have to say at this point I'd
rather eat on HAL! Having Eggs Benedict and cappuccino delivered
every day to the suite was a distinct pleasure however! . Our butler
Ricky was a peach. We did Celebrity Select dining which worked very
well for us. Dinner was preceded by our nightly visit to the champagne
bar. Shows were surprisingly cheesy good, apparently a brand new
cast. Many Captains Club Elite and suite dweller events, none of
which we attended! Long pants before dinner....oh no can do. Lol...
Highlight I'd say was wading way out in Tobacco Bay at low tide w feet
still touching the bottom. Otherwise we had quite a few overcast and
rainy days, but we don't do mega suntanning anymore so that was ok.

Excellent photos. It must be nice to get a Royal Suite. Wish I could
afford one.

I like HAL actually, although it does go to bed early on that ship! I
was a bit wary about the Veendam though -- don't like the "retreat"
concept where they pulled out the aft pool and of course it seemed to
never actually anchor at St. George and ended up in Hamilton anyhow.
But dockyard's not bad! As it turned out we had crummy weather pretty
much anyhow and just one good beach day!
