The Amazing EDGE

Ralph Thacker • October 10, 2019

After my recent visit on Celebrity’s newest ship in Barcelona the EDGE & absolutely falling in love with this new class of ship, setting a new standard of luxury!

Between the indoor & outdoor areas the Edge has so many more amazing spaces & different areas. You embark the ship directly onto the atrium, The Grand   , located at the heart of the ship! It has energy that draws everyone to it morning, noon & night. A Martini Bar which dazzles with the waiters mixing the most delicious cocktails – be sure to try the Banana Split Martini!

Have a fun dining experience in the Le Petit Chef restaurant featured onboard the Edge where you wouldn’t believe what’s happening on your dinner plate – A tiny chef who could fit into the palm of your hand is projected onto each expertly placed table setting, creates each course of your meal & then when he’s finished, waiters bring out the real thing Exactly how the chefs prepared!

The Main dining area’s have been rethought when Celebrity designed the edge, there is now not only one but FOUR complimentary main dining restaurants, each with a distinctive design & ambience inspired by specific region of the world – the Normandie, Tuscan, Cosmopolitan & Cyprus. Each restaurant features the same mouthwatering menu which changes nightly – but each offers different ambience & a selection of exclusive regionally inspired dishes & drinks. You can still choose traditional early or late dining time with the same table & waiter every evening, or take the Select dining plus option – allowing you to dine when & where you like each evening – My personal favourite.

Eden is the most unique space on the ship, it transports you through Eden itself! They invite you to indulge every sense in transformative atmosphere that changes from “chillful” mornings to “playful” afternoons to “sinful” evenings. It has 3 levels of experiences completely wrapped in glass looking out in to the ocean. The nature inspired food was mouthwatering – Eden really will amaze everyone who enters & it.

The Celebrity Edge has the New Infinite Veranda Staterooms these give you more space in the cabin where at a touch of a button you can open up your window. However I fell in love with the Sky Suite – If its within your budget I would definitely upgrade! The bed faces the large spacious balcony – who would not want to wake up in the morning & watch the sunrise from your bed?

Book on the Celebrity Edge or Apex & you will not be disappointed!
