New to Celebrity

[Cruise for vacation]

Finally booked our first cruise on Celebrity.  What are the perks when you are in are Suite?  We are Diamond on Royal, will be Elite on Celebrity.

Depending on the ship, Celebrity suite guests get access to their own private dining room, Lumanae, a suite lounge, and the Retreat area of the ship.

You will be Elite on Celebrity, but that does not get you much additional if you are in a suite.  You get most everything anyway.  But you will get a free bag of laundry for each of you.  But if you are in a higher level suite (above Sky suite or Celebrity suite) you will get additional benefits such as Specialty dining included.

We are trying our 1st S1 on Beyond next month.

You will be blown away by Eclass--fell in love with the Edge in 2021!

I could list the suite amenities, but the above link does a perfect job of it.

Make sure that your reservation includes the suite package and that you don't have the "Cruise only" rate. The cruise only rate is fine for those who do not drink alcohol because the gratuities and WiFi are usually less than the package price.

Thank you, did not know it was a “cruise only” difference.  Checked my receipt and it has the drink, Wi-Fi and gratuities listed.

In a nut shell, you will have access to Luminae as your restaurant - very much like Coastal Kitchen only better.  Be aware that unlike CK, Luminae is not open for lunch on Port days.

You will have access to the Retreat Lounge - very much site the Suite Lounge on RCI ships.  Drinks in the lounge are free.  

You will get access to the Retreat Sun Deck very much like the Suite Sun Deck on RCI Oasis/Quantum class.  You can get lunch on port days from a limited menu. 

You will have both a stateroom attendant, who is responsible for cleaning and servicing your room (fresh towels, linens, etc.). 

You will have a Butler, or Personal Retreat Host, who is similar to the Genie's on RCI.  This is your conduit to many services onboard.  Use this person as little or as much as you need to take care of any/all issue that may arise on your cruise.  If you order room service this is normally the person that will be delivering it to you.  We make sure and advise ours of any changes, e.g. shrimp cocktail and a cheese plate instead of pastries as snakcs for the room, fresh ice, what type of canned soda we prefer in the room, lunch in the room, etc.  

You will have the Premium Beverage Package - this will get you most of the drinks served on the ship with the exception of one or two at the Martini Bar and the World Class Bar.  No dealing with drink coupons or worrying about the lack of variety in the Elite Cocktail Hour selections.  

You will have the premium WiFi package for both of you.
