What You Need to Know about Celebrity Ascent, 2023
So, you're considering a cruise on the Celebrity Ascent? You're in for a treat! This ship has been making waves (pun intended) in the cruising community, and for good reason. Let's dive into what makes the Celebrity Ascent so special, shall we?
Description of the Ship
The Celebrity Ascent is a marvel of modern maritime engineering. It's a mid-sized ship that can accommodate around 2,900 passengers, giving you enough space to explore without feeling crowded. The ship boasts 15 decks, including 10 dedicated to guests, and offers a range of luxurious amenities. The amount of artwork onboard this ship is amazing. It feels like you are walking through a floating art gallery.
Itinerary - Nassau, Bahamas
Because this was just a preview sailing before the Ascent started her regular sailings, we only had one port of call, Nassau, Bahamas. One of the highlights of our trip was the stop in Nassau, Bahamas. We love Nassau as it is known for its stunning beaches, crystal-clear waters, and vibrant culture. We spent the day with the piggies! As we did a very popular excursion of Swimming with the Pigs. It was epic.
Highlights of the Ship
Where do we begin? The Celebrity Ascent is packed with features that will make your cruise unforgettable. Here are just a few of our favorites:
The Rooftop Garden: This lush, green space is the perfect place to unwind and take in the stunning views of the ocean. We loved spending our afternoons here, sipping cocktails and soaking up the sun.
The Magic Carpet: This unique feature is a cantilevered platform that moves up and down the side of the ship. It's the perfect spot for a romantic dinner or a sunset cocktail.
The Spa: The Celebrity Ascent has one of the most luxurious spas we've ever seen. We did not have a chance to go to the spa but I can definitely say that I want to in the future.
The Dining Options: From gourmet restaurants to casual cafes, the Celebrity Ascent has something for everyone. We loved trying new dishes and flavors from around the world at the buffet, and at the specialty restaurants.
Main Takeaways from the Trip
Overall, our experience on the Celebrity Ascent was incredible. The ship is beautiful, the service is impeccable, and the destinations are breathtaking. Whether you're a seasoned cruiser or a first-timer, we highly recommend giving the Celebrity Ascent a try. You won't be disappointed!
