Celebrity Cruises Classes Explained: AquaClass vs The Retreat vs Concierge

Once you’ve decided to go on a Celebrity Cruise, you’re faced with deciding what type of class you want to book, if any. You can book a regular stateroom or choose to book one of Celebrity Cruises’ higher-level classes, including AquaClass, The Retreat, Concierge, or an Aqua SkySuite. 

But what perks do they come with? And are they worth the investment? We will compare and contrast the classes in this vs that points along with a helpful table comparing all the info at the end of the post.

Ranking Celebrity Cruises Three Class Options

Wondering which class has the least perks and which has the most? Here’s the order from least to most: 

• The Retreat

All three options are available on all Celebrity Cruise ships, even though the look and feel of The Retreat Sundeck may vary from ship to ship, and the spas vary as well, depending on the ship series. (Celebrity currently has three ship classes: Edge, Solstice, and Millenium.)

For example, we were on Celebrity Apex and enjoyed a yellow color as an accent in The Retreat. We noticed the accent color is red on Celebrity Beyond .

Important Distinction: What is an Aqua Sky Suite with Celebrity Cruises? 

There are three upgraded class options with Celebrity Cruises that we mentioned above. However, there’s an additional “fourth” class you can book that gets you the perks of AquaClass while also allowing you to be a guest of The Retreat. 

Being in an Aqua SkySuite will reward you with this dual-perk situation.

You’ll be able to enjoy dining at Luminae and Blu (The Retreat’s private restaurant and AquaClass’s private dining), have workout gear in your room, and special spa access. 

Guests of one or the other (The Retreat or AquaClass, not both) only enjoy some of these benefits. Guests in Aqua SkySuites enjoy the best of both worlds and enjoy all of the perks of both class types.

In summation, if you want to enjoy two classes during your Celebrity Cruises vacation – AquaClass and The Retreat – book an “Aqua SkySuite.” 

AquaClass vs. The Retreat vs. Concierge: Suite Perks and Amenities

How many different suite/cabin options are in each class .

The Retreat has a whopping 10 different options of suites. On the other hand, AquaClass and Concierge simply have one option. That makes booking a suite in AquaClass and Concierge simple!

A Concierge suite is essentially the same type of cabin as an infinite veranda it’s just called Concierge when you upgrade to the class to get the perks. The suite looks the same you just have added benefits. 

All AquaClass suites are the same suite (just one option) and all Concierge suites are the same. 

The Retreat Suites 

Here are some of the suites you can book that are part of The Retreat (in order from least square footage to the most): 

• Sky Suite: this is an entry-level suite and the most affordable way to be in The Retreat (319 sq. ft.)
• Aqua Sky Suite (319 sq. ft.) – same square footage as the Sky Suite, just different perks
• Celebrity Suite (401 sq. ft.) 
• Royal Suite (687 sq. ft.) 
• Edge Villa (739 sq. ft.) 
• Penthouse (1,378 sq. ft.) 
• Iconic Suite (1,892 sq. ft.) 

Celebrity, Royal, Edge, Penthouse, and Iconic are considered upper suites of the suites listed above. 

Priority Location of Suites

All three classes enjoy desirable locations of suites on the ship. (You’re on a Celebrity Cruise – is there a bad stateroom location? We think not!) 

You will never get an inside stateroom with any of these upgraded classes. You can even request a specific room upon booking, based on availability. 

Premium Bedding

All three classes, Aquaclass, The Retreat, and Concierge, have upgraded premium bedding. 

Pillow Menu

Yes, you read that correctly! When you sail with Celebrity Cruises in a Concierge, AquaClass, or The Retreat suite, you get a pillow menu to order your preferred pillow type! 

In-Room Workout Gear

Many people who sign up to be included in AquaClass are fitness-focused. As such, Celebrity accommodates their fitness-forward lifestyle by providing a menu of workout gear that they can have in their room. 

This was delivered to our stateroom on our first day aboard the ship. You can choose from various things like a kettlebell, yoga mat, yoga block, strengthening equipment, and a meditation pack. 

Guests of AquaClass and Aqua Sky Suites can take advantage of this perk.

Beach Towels

All three classes take beach towels provided in the suite to offshore excursions for use during the cruise. 

They are delivered to your suite in a lovely Nate Burkus tote bag; the bag is yours to keep after the cruise. 

In-room binoculars are provided for all three classes: The Retreat, Concierge, and AquaClass. 

You don’t need them while you’re at sea in a place like the Caribbean, but they are useful during sea days on an Alaskan cruise. Additionally, they’re helpful during select excursions; just don’t forget to return them to your suite closest (where they’re stored) when you’re done!

Personally, we always bring our binoculars because there’s never been a time when the cruise line-provided binoculars have been as solid or as high-quality as our own.

Daily Canapés

All three classes enjoy canapés delivered to their suite throughout the cruise. It’s a nice little in-room snack if you’re hungry. If you find they’re not being delivered, simply request them.

Suite Water Service

With AquaClass and Concierge, only, you will receive a complimentary bottle of water upon arrival. 

That said, we also saw bottles of water that guests could take to go in the disembarkation area when leaving the ship for excursions or to explore a port. (We appreciated that the bottles were aluminum, in line with Celebrity’s commitment to sustainability .) 

Additionally, AquaClass and Aqua Sky Suite guests have daily bottled water service in the room.

Suite Welcome Gifts/Drinks

If you are a guest of AquaClass or Concierge, you can receive sparkling wine and fruit when you arrive to your suite upon request. 

We had this in our room and couldn’t wait to toast to a great cruise, which we promptly did after getting situated. 

Don’t Delay Your Celebrity Cruises Vacation!

Celebrity Cruises is one of our favorite cruise lines, thanks to the sophistication and beauty of the ships and staterooms, friendly crew, shopping, entertainment, and delicious food + drinks.

AquaClass vs. The Retreat vs. Concierge: Relaxation Areas on the Ship 

Dedicated pool .

There is a special top-deck lounge and pool area for guests of The Retreat, called The Retreat Sundeck. While the environment of the Sundeck has an adults-only vibe, The Retreat pool and Sundeck areas are not adults-only. It’s open to all ages as long as the guest is part of The Retreat.

It was very nice to enjoy this area on Celebrity Apex. It’s much more intimate than the “public” pool areas. Retreat guests access the area with their key cards, which opens the Sundeck door. Here, guests find various lounge chairs and couches, a small pool area, and a dedicated bar. 

There was also poolside food available to order for a few hours for lunch and assorted treats served by surprise other times. For example, we were offered ice cream cups one afternoon, while another afternoon, we were served colorful, refreshing fruit skewers.  

AquaClass and Concierge guests do not have a dedicated Sundeck. 

We also want to note that The Retreat Sundeck is a perk on Edge-class ships and Revolutionized ships. It’s unavailable on the following Celebrity Cruises ships: Solstice, Eclipse, Reflection, Infinity, and Constellation.  

Special Spa Access

AquaClass and Aqua Sky Suites guests enjoy passes to the SEA Thermal Spa on Edge class ships for the duration of their cruise. This includes a steam room, sauna, Crystallarium, salt room, float room, and more. AquaClass guests have complimentary access to the Persian Garden/Spa on non-Edge ships. 

Spa Concierge helps take care of any spa requests AquaClass guests have.

Concierge guests and Retreat guests do not have special spa access. An additional fee applies for all non-AquaClass guests. 

Anyone on the ship can book a spa appointment; we recommend doing so before your cruise to secure a preferred appointment spot. 

AquaClass vs. The Retreat vs. Concierge: Drinks/Beverages and Restaurants (Beyond your Suite)

Exclusive restaurants.

Two classes of the three get you access to exclusive restaurants with Celebrity Cruises. The Retreat has Luminae for its guests, while AquaClass guests get access to Blu. 

Luminae is focused on elevated food, flavors from around the globe, and a superior dining experience. Blu is focused on some healthier dining options and sustainability. (Even though we want to reiterate that Celebrity Cruises, as a whole, keeps sustainability at the forefront of its brand, ship-wide.) 

Though it’s not particularly a “restaurant,” The Retreat Sundeck has food available for lunch. 

We compare Luminae and Blu here .

You do not have to dine at these restaurants if you’re in AquaClass or The Retreat; it’s simply only an option if you are a part of these Celebrity Cruises suite classes. In other words, guests who are not a part of either class cannot dine in these restaurants. Only guests who are have that option.

Exclusive Lounge Area

The Retreat Lounge is special for Retreat guests. On non-revolutionized Celebrity ships, it’s called “Michael’s Club.” AquaClass and Concierge guests have no such lounge. 

The Retreat Lounge is a beautiful area to have continental breakfast if you want another option besides the ship’s many restaurants and dedicated Luminae restaurant. 

The lounge is open all day for beverages, from coffee drinks to tea and cocktails. They also have self-serve mini-fridges where you can grab a drink like sparkling or still water.

The Retreat Lounge offers guests some lite bites if you want to have yourself a little cocktail hour and collect a cheese plate and some charcuterie before dinner. They host afternoon tea some days, complete with scones and pastries. 

You can also ask a dedicated concierge team that’s there any questions you may have about the ship or excursions. 

The lounge is open 24/7; service times vary, but we generally found someone from the crew/concierge team there from early morning to late at night. It’s simply a lovely place to relax.

Premium Drinks 

Premium beverages, including cafe drinks like lattes and espressos, cocktails, and wine, are included with The Retreat at The Retreat Lounge and all over the ship. AquaClass and Concierge classes do not have a space like this with premium beverages and it’s not automatically added to the class type reservation. 

However, you can inquire about drinks packages or All-Included rates (which includes a Classic Drink Package) when you book your cruise, giving you the luxury of not having to pay per drink. 

Dining Invitations

You may have heard about things like a Chef’s Table for a special dinner on some cruise ships. For example, river cruises usually have a “Captain’s Dinner” evening, and barge cruises do too. Princess Cruises has a version of this on steroids with its Chef’s Table experience. 

Celebrity Cruises doesn’t have that. However, they extend an invitation to Concierge guests to join a welcome lunch. The Retreat and AquaClass do not have this (but they do have their exclusive restaurants, Luminae and Blu.) 

AquaClass vs. The Retreat vs. Concierge: Getting On and Off the Ship

Priority boarding on embarkation day.

The embarkation hours of big ocean cruise ships (and the thousands of people trying to board the ship) are rarely someone’s favorite activity, minus the excitement of getting on the ship at the end of the process. 

This is why you may appreciate that being part of The Retreat will get you an additional perk: early boarding! 

AquaClass and Concierge do not enjoy this benefit; only The Retreat does.

Priority Disembarkation and Tendering in Ports During the Cruise 

None of the classes will get you this perk. However, we did have our suite Host escort us to the front of the line one day when we were disembarking at Grand Cayman. 

Priority Disembarkation (at the End of the Cruise)

The same rule applies for disembarkation as embarkation: The Retreat guests get priority disembarkation. 

This means you get your first choice of time to leave the ship on the last day. In many cases, because people want to prolong their cruise, you can choose to be one of the last to disembark. 

AquaClass vs. The Retreat vs. Concierge: Dedicated Service and Crew Members

Butler/host.

All three classes enjoy some sort of butler or host service: 

• Concierge Class has concierge team members at their assistance
• The Retreat has a dedicated Personal Retreat Host per suite (same for Aqua Sky Suites)
• AquaClass has a dedicated Spa Concierge and stateroom attendant

Guests of The Retreat can also direct their questions to a dedicated concierge team in The Retreat Lounge. 

Pre-Cruise Concierge

Only The Retreat guests can take advantage of a pre-cruise concierge service to assist with booking onboard experiences, activities, and port excursions before they board. 

AquaClass vs. The Retreat vs. Concierge: Additional Perks 

Anyone who books a cruise with Celebrity needs to choose whether they want to purchase the Cruise-Only or Always Included rate. 

As expected, the Cruise-Only rate does not include Wi-Fi or drinks. 

In contrast, the Always-Included rate includes internet (Unlimited Basic WiFi Package), gratuities, and a Classic Drinks package for the entirety of your cruise.

The exception is for The Retreat guests because all perks – like WiFi and premium drinks – are already included. Retreat guests enjoy a Premium Package for drinks, tips included, On Board Credit (OBC), and the Unlimited Premium WiFi Package. 

Included WiFi

WiFi is included with The Retreat. It is not included with AquaClass or Concierge, though any guest can either add on wifi or take advantage of a promotion to include Wi-Fi when booking. (Such as if AquaClass/Concierge guests are booking an “All Included” rate.) 

Shoe shining is included for all three classes upon request. 

Special Theater Seating During Shows

Celebrity Cruises has premium evening entertainment . The Retreat guests can sit in a special, premium reserved area of the theater during performances on Evening Chic nights. 

(“Evening Chic” is Celebrity Cruises’ term for formal nights, which are less formal than gowns and tuxedos like Cunard Cruises have. Evening Chic calls for elevated, elegant evening attire, whichever way you interpret it in what you wear. They are fun evenings designated to be a little fancier than others if you want to get dressed up.) 

We never used this reserved seating perk because we always found available seating. However, we imagine it’s a nice option for times when the theater is packed. 

Guests of AquaClass and Concierge do not have reserved seating. 

AquaClass vs. The Retreat vs. Concierge: Cost

It may not be the answer you’re looking for, but we recommend looking up the current cost of the Celebrity Cruises vacation you’re considering to understand the price. This is to ensure you’re getting the most accurate numbers. 

Perhaps it’s hyperbole, but you can find hundreds of combinations of packages and rates for cruises. You may look up cruise rates today and then look next month and find different options.  

Factors that affect cost include: 

• Cruise location/ports
• Time of year 
• Availability 
• What class you’re looking to book 
• Current promotions

If you are lucky, prices may be such that it’s a no-brainer to book AquaClass with an All-Included rate or to be in The Retreat in a suite you didn’t think you could afford. 

It all depends on when you look and when you book. If you find a great rate, grab it!

Is Upgrading to One of These Classes Worth It on a Celebrity Cruise? 

Overall, we think it is. However, it depends on what’s important to you during your cruise vacation.

For example, we really like small, exclusive experiences. This is especially true onboard a huge cruise ship. Small experiences and venues (dining and pool areas included) make a huge ship feel cozier to us. 

And sure, we’ll say it: we like feeling a little more special when we travel. It helps us unwind and relax more to know we’re in the hands of a select team.  

However, if you don’t need more than the main dining and specialty dining options on the ship and the main pool area that everyone can use is a-okay with you (heck, maybe you don’t even care about the pool at all and you prefer spending time in the casino) then booking a regular stateroom and getting the already included amenities may work for you. 

An additional example is if wellness is paramount to you. If so, AquaClass could be just the cruise experience you’ve been searching for, with special spa access, in-room fitness equipment, a dedicated restaurant focused on lower-calorie ingredients and sustainability.

Another thing to consider, especially with The Retreat, with premium drinks included, is whether “free” cocktails, smoothies, and coffee drinks are even important to you. If they are, The Retreat has great perks. But you won’t find value in included drinks if it’s unimportant to you. 

Understandably, most guests will not want to pay for perks they won’t use.

To answer the question of “Is it worth the upgrade?” you first need to lay out your cruise priorities, then review this post again to see if your priorities align with the offerings in one of the upgraded classes. 

Is AquaClass Worth It? 

AquaClass is good for guests who want wellness to be a vacation focus or it’s simply a lifestyle value they want to emphasize during vacation. The in-room workout gear, special spa passes, and overall attention to health in AquaClass is certainly a special offering from Celebrity Cruises. 

If you’re not that into wellness or fitness, but you love the idea of a dedicated restaurant and some extra special attention, spring for The Retreat instead.

Is The Retreat on Celebrity Cruise Ships Worth It?

Having sailed onboard Celebrity Apex in The Retreat class, we cannot imagine sailing with Celebrity again and not being in The Retreat. 

We felt special, loved that we could go to Luminae as our home base/default dining experience, and really enjoyed The Retreat Lounge for pre-dinner cocktails every day. The Sundeck was great for avoiding crowds at the main pool. 

We recommend The Retreat!

Is Concierge with Celebrity Cruises Worth It? 

Concierge certainly doesn’t have all the perks of The Retreat, and it does not have as many bonuses enjoyed in AquaClass. Still, it’s a nice entry-level way to get a taste of what a higher level of service will be like with Celebrity Cruises if you’ve never experienced it.

While you won’t have a dedicated restaurant like Luminae or Blu, you will enjoy a special welcome lunch, an in-room welcome treat, daily canapés, premium bedding, shoe-shining, binoculars, and a dedicated concierge.

Helpful Chart Comparing all the Class Types on Celebrity Cruises

If visual charts help explain things (they do for us!), we created the chart below so you can see the Celebrity Cruises class types. It’s very easy to compare AquaClass vs The Retreat vs Concierge at a glance this way.

Conclusion of Celebrity Cruises Class Types

The Retreat may be the ultimate way to enjoy all the perks Celebrity Cruises has to offer, while AquaClass is ideal for wellness-focused cruisers. If you want to dip a toe into upgraded class waters to try it out, a Concierge-level suite could be the perfect fit.

Thank you so much for your note of appreciation, Linda. It means a lot to us! We create this content for readers like you! – Mikkel and Dan

You have a great comparison with a few incorrect details. The Retreat Class does get a welcome gift/wine upon arrival. Along with the Upper Suites of Royal & Above receiving 2 Full bottles of Liquor of your choice & Mixers complimentary. You also receive water and refreshments daily from your butler. Additionally The Retreat guests do get priority disembark on tours if you go to the Retreat lounge. Some other additional information is that there are private parties and Speciality Restaurants is included for Breakfast, Lunch , & Dinner for Royal Suites & Above. Just some new information from a guest who has travelled in these accommodations

Thanks, John! We appreciate the insight. Our info came from Celebrity Cruises directly, so we’ll be sure to reach out to them to say, “Heyyyy are these new perks?!” 🙂

Thanks for the comparisons between those 3 class cabins. I was specifically looking for the value between an SV cabin and a Concierge cabin which I usually book if not Retreat. If only losing a dedicated concierge and a lunch (not ever attended), is there any justification for the rather large difference in cruise cost IYO?

Hi Carole! To clarify, do you mean “Sunset Veranda” when you say SV? If so, you’re not missing out on anything if you book an SV cabin compared to concierge if you aren’t attending the lunch and aren’t using the concierge service.

Thanks for the comparison. It is most helpful. Just wonder if you tip the retreat team in addition to the prepaid gratitude and if so how much is a reasonable amount and do you tip everyone who served you in Luminae?

Hi Lee! It’s entirely up to you. They always welcome extra gratuity and are allowed to accept it. Just bring some extra cash for that. It depends on the length of your sailing but an extra $2 per day even equates to a good amount of extra money in their pocket at the end of a 7-day+ cruise. It’s entirely up to you though.

Love how you defined each class. Very good information. We love the retreat suites. Would love if it included Blu and spa. A great comparison. Thank you

Thanks, Robyn!

The Life Aquatic: Diving in to Celebrity’s Aqua Class

There’s no badge, no secret code, but being in Aqua Class makes you a member of a select club on a Celebrity cruise. It’s billed as an option offering healthy dining  and perks at the spa, but you never actually need to get your feet wet to savor the Aqua life. We’ve cruised on Celebrity Cruises many times in the past but never opted for Aqua Class until now. Membership comes at a premium, but judging from the fact that staterooms in this category sell out quickly and are regularly on wait lists, Celebrity regulars obviously feel the attractions are worth it. So what do you get when you dive into Aqua?

It starts with priority boarding. On this Celebrity Beyond cruise from Rome there is a big VIP waiting area with a snack bar in the terminal, but it’s really only useful if you arrive ahead of the official boarding time of noon. Even though the ship at full capacity, as long as you’ve checked in on the Celebrity app before arriving at the terminal, the process of dropping off bags and getting on board is practically seamless. Arriving at our pre-reserved time, we had done the check-in on Celebrity’s app in advance and added selfie ID photos.  All we needed to do was flash the bar code on the app and go through a security screening to head right onto the ship, where room keys are in a mail slot by the door.

Checking into the suite life

Only about 100 of the 1,600 guest rooms on Celebrity Beyond are dedicated to Aqua Class . They’re the same dimensions as many other suites on the ship, but they come with added options. Ours on Deck 9 were in category A2; those in A1 are similar; just located closer to the elevators. 

The suite is spacious and furnished with what Celebrity calls its exclusive Cashmere mattress and Exhale Italian-made luxury cotton bedding (which does make for some very pleasant dreaming). There’s a dressing table with drawers and a mini-bar and a sofa in the living area, as well as two chairs and a small table in the  infinite veranda area. For those not familiar with Celebrity’s Edge Class  ships: rather than a walk-out balcony, Celebrity’s infinite verandas are all inside space with a floor to ceiling window whose upper half can be lowered electronically to get the sea breeze. Be aware though, that opening the window turns off the air conditioning in the room. There’s ample storage space and cotton robes in the closet along with zipper bags that contain yoga mats–apparently for those who like to do their stretching in the privacy of their room rather than the spa. The big marble-lined bathroom is equipped with a spa-worthy rainforest shower that was a treat once I discovered the secret lever beneath the handle that turns it on.

Other luxury Aqua amenities are bath and body products by C.O. Bigelow , a New York apothecary that’s been in business since 1836 and whose soaps, shampoos and salves are modern takes on classic formulas. And of course there is an ample supply of water in recyclable aluminum bottles replenished daily by the room attendants. There would normally be a charge for bottled water in other room categories on the ship, although since we had opted for the premium drinks package, water  would have been complimentary anyway.

The exclusive Blu restaurant

A prime perk is access to the exclusive Aqua Class restaurant Blu, that offers gourmet menus for breakfast and dinner.

Blu’s location makes just getting there an experience. It’s at the far side of a mesmerizing hallway of mirrors called Odyssey that’s dotted with shimmering glossy bronze shapes in the floor and ceiling. The darkened, ethereal music-filled space that feels like walking  through an asteroid field is a conceptual artwork created by Swedish/British artist Fredrikson Stallard, who also created a fantastic bronze and enamel lounge chair outside Blu that’s perfect for posing

The stylish and intimate Blu restaurant really should be called the Aqua Club. Blue is the theme from the water glasses on the tables to the crystal beads that fringe the ceiling. My wife and I were continually amazed by the pampering, attentive service of the personable staff and the tastes, quality, and variety of what comes out of the kitchen.

And while Blu boasts an ever-changing slate of health-conscious daily specials headed Clean Cuisine , there’s also a full menu of daily gourmet treats you won’t find on other restaurants on the ship. In addition to inventive vegetarian and vegan options, you’ll also find inventive takes on classics like steak frites and the most prime filet mignon imaginable. This is also the only place on the ship were you can order a Beyond Meat burger.

One evening’s goat cheese souffle with pickled mustard seed as an appetizer was so satisfying, I could have considered it my entire meal. But I followed that with a marinated grilled chicken leg on a bed of sugar cane infused brown rice, followed by a lava cake for dessert. Satisfying, yes. And they do promise it’s also reasonably  healthy.

Chilling in the SEA Thermal Suite

Along with including several complimentary fitness classes and a discount on spa treatments, Aqua Class guests also get unlimited free access to the SEA Thermal Suite in the spa, which would otherwise be an option that costs $69 a day or $219 a week.

Despite its name, aside from a zone that features experiential showers with light displays, there isn’t much water in the actual Thermal Suite. The pool and whirlpools are outside the spa, in the glass domed  Solarium zone on deck 14 that’s  open to everyone on the ship. It tends to be much quieter and relaxing than the  big open-air pool deck on the same deck in the middle of the ship. 

Celebrity describes the Thermal Suite as “a playground for the senses, with eight experiences inspired by elements of water, earth and air.” It was a natural place to visit after a workout in the spa’s gym equipped with the latest TechnoGym  exercise equipment as well as Peloton bikes.

The suite’s zones include a traditional sauna, a mosaic-lined Hammam that’s a modern take on the traditional Turkish bath, and dry rooms with purported health-stimulating features.

I was never sure what a Salt Room is supposed to do, but it seems sitting for 10 minutes or more  in the room with a wall built of blocks of pink Himalayan sea salt leaves ions of the salt on your skin. You’re not supposed to wash them off, so do it after the sweat rooms. There’s no long-term medical study on how the salt treatment works, but it’s certainly a trend in spas and people swear it helps them breathe better. It did seem to give my skin a tingle.

Afterword, I had the chance to zone out in what they call the Float Room: a series of basket chairs hanging from the ceiling that envelope you and impart a feeling of floating in the air. And there’s the Crystalarium, described as “a room full of natural healing energy.” Its centerpiece is a fascinating large formation of quartz crystals you can contemplate as you meditate.

Taking it up a notch

Celebrity Beyond was the first Celebrity Edge Class  ship to introduce a premium version of the Aqua program. there are 20  Aqua Class Sky Suites that include larger accommodations and perks that include access to upscale The Retreat deck and dining at Luminae, the exclusive Retreat restaurant whose signature dishes are inspired by celebrity chef Daniel Boulud , who also curated the dishes at Le Voyage , Beyond’s top specialty restaurant.

Somehow, after 11 days of eating as extravagantly and satisfyingly as I did, I still managed to get home and step on the scale weighing no more than when I left for the cruise. That alone makes Aqua Class a healthy option. The premium for being part of the Aqua Class club varies depending on itineraries, but the category invariably sells out. If you want to join the club, it’s always wise to plan ahead and  take advantage of substantial early-booking discounts  Celebrity Beyond will be making Fort Lauderdale its permanent home port starting in the fall, for cruises to the Caribbean. The new Celebrity Ascent , a sister ship to Beyond, will join her for a winter season from Fort Lauderdale in December and take over her European itineraries in the spring and summer of 2024.

Celebrity Cruises: Is AquaClass Worth It?

Celebrity Cruises offers AquaClass staterooms on its ships, which is one step above Concierge Class staterooms , and two steps above the entry-level veranda cabins. There is no appreciable difference in cabin or balcony sizes for any of these categories.

On Edge -class ships, the balcony may be an “ Infinite Veranda ,” which is essentially a large floor-to-ceiling exterior window where the top half of the window can slide open to create a balcony. The window is accessible through a pair of folding glass doors in the cabin.

AquaClass staterooms are generally considered the highest level of accommodation on Celebrity Cruises, short of suites.

AquaClass Benefits over Concierge Class Staterooms

The two main differences between AquaClass and Concierge Class are access to the Blu restaurant and complimentary access to certain spa services.

Blu Restaurant

The Blu restaurant , unsurprisingly decorated in a blue and white tones, is available exclusively for AquaClass guests for breakfast and dinner. Lunch is not served in Blu.

Blu offers “cleaner” cuisine, which means lighter and healthier fare such as pan-seared red snapper and grilled lamb chop salad. Vegetarian options are available.

Blu is much more intimate than the Main Dining Room (MDR). While capacity varies by ship, Blu can typically seat a maximum of 120 to 160 guests. By comparison, non- Edge class ships seat 1,400 to 1,500 in the MDR.

No reservations are required or accepted to dine at Blu for AquaClass guests. If you’re dining with a large group (6+ people), you may be offered a reservation to ensure that an appropriately-sized table is available at your preferred time.

AquaClass guests may also be able to order off of the MDR menu when dining in Blu, depending on the ship, although they can only dine in the actual MDR on a space-available basis.

Suite guests can also dine in Blu if requested and space is available; most suite guests dine in their own suite-only Luminae restaurant.

AquaClass guests receive unlimited access to the SEA Thermal Suite (on Edge -class ships), unlimited access to the Persian Garden (on Millennium -class and Solstice -class ships), and unlimited access to the Relaxation Room (on Solstice -class ships). In addition, AquaClass guests can arrange spa bookings through their personal spa concierge and receive a wellness consultation.

In-Room Amenities

While relatively minor, AquaClass guests receive slippers and use of an aromatherapy diffuser.

The cabin’s shower also has panel with massaging water jets.

AquaClass Benefits Shared With Concierge Class

AquaClass also shares a number of benefits with Concierge Class.

Priority Boarding and Debarkation

Alongside suite and Concierge Class guests, AquaClass guests receive priority boarding and debarkation, both on embarkation day and throughout the cruise while in port.

Complimentary Food

AquaClass guests receive a small plate hors d’oeuvres/canapés delivered every afternoon. You can also receive complimentary sparkling wine upon request.

Pillow Selection

You can select among five different pillow types when staying in a AquaClass cabin:

• Goose down pillow
• Body pillow (feather and down)
• Isotonic pillow (synthetic down)
• Conformance pillow (provides greater support)
• Hypoallergenic pillows (non-feather and non-down)

Odds and Ends

There are also a handful of additional minor benefits.

You receive a complimentary Celebrity embossed key holder and a tote bag, versus just the shopping bag that guests traveling below Concierge Class receive. You can also utilize (but not keep) your in-cabin umbrella and binoculars while cruising…the binoculars cannot leave the ship.

Your bathroom will feature an upgraded Hansgrohe showerhead, which can offer a more rainfall-like showering experience. There is also an extra hairdryer in the bathroom, so two people can dry their hair at once.

And if you decide your shoes need shining, there is a complimentary shoeshine service.

AquaClass Benefits Shared With Concierge Class and Veranda Staterooms

AquaClass also shares a number of benefits with Concierge Class and Veranda staterooms, aside from just the balcony/veranda, that are not offered to guests staying in Ocean View and Inside Staterooms.

Enhanced Room Service Breakfast Menu

You will have access to slightly-expanded breakfast options when using room service versus those traveling in cabins without balconies. This includes:

• omelet (but with a very limited selection of add-ins)
• poached eggs
• boiled eggs
• plus the scrambled eggs available to everyone
• Canadian bacon
• Black Forest ham
• plus the bacon, link sausage, breakfast ham, and corned beef hash available to everyone
• plus the honeydew, cantaloupe, and bananas available to everyone
• granola berry parfait
• plus the standard cold cereal brands like Raisin Bran, Corn Flakes, Rice Krispies, Frosted Flakes, and Special K available to everyone
• French bread
• bran muffins
• blueberry muffins
• multi-grain toast
• onion bagels
• plus the danishes, plain bagel, whole wheat toast, rye toast, croissant, English muffin, and white toast available to everyone
• grapefruit juice
• tomato juice
• prune juice
• plus the orange juice, cranberry juice, and apple juice available to everyone
• French toast
• mixed fruit
• blueberry-watermelon

Ordering room service between 11pm and 6am still incurs a $4.95 charge, which is only waived for guests staying in suites.

Enhanced Bath Amenities

Guests receive upgraded soap, shampoo, and conditioner.

Your stateroom will have a slightly-nicer plush cotton bathrobe for your use while cruising versus the waffle bathrobe offered in Ocean View and Inside staterooms. Stateroom with a balcony also receive 100% cotton bath towels.

Concierge Class Benefits over AquaClass

Concierge Class does have a few advantages over AquaClass, namely access to the Embarkation Day Lunch.

Embarkation Day Lunch and Priority Dining Time Selection

Concierge Class guests are invited to a semi-exclusive lunch in the MDR on embarkation day, which means they can avoid the crowded buffet at the Oceanview Cafe.

Since Blu doesn’t serve lunch, AquaClass guests will need to visit the buffet or another one of the dining venues for lunch.

Concierge Class guests also receive priority when selecting dining times in both the MDR and specialty restaurants, although AquaClass guests have exclusive access to Blu, which does not require reservations.

Concierge Service

Concierge Class has access “personalized” concierge services for things like on-board restaurant and spa reservations, shore excursion bookings, and ticket reservations for entertainment at ports/destinations.

AquaClass does have access to their personal spa concierge for spa-related bookings.

AquaClass is only worth it if you really value access to the exclusive Blu restaurant and complimentary access to the thermal spa. Otherwise, if it’s primarily a balcony you’re after, Concierge Class or even just a regular Veranda stateroom should do nicely.

Celebrity Cruises guests may pay a steeper bill next time they sail.

The cruise line is raising its automatic gratuity rates later this month. Charges for standard staterooms will increase from $17.50 to $18 per passenger, per day, while those in Concierge Class and AquaClass staterooms will pay $18.50 per guest each day, up from $18.

Guests in The Retreat suites will pay $23 per passenger, per day, an increase from $21. The changes will take effect July 11.

“The change is in keeping with industry standards and directly recognizes both the exceptional work by our crew to deliver unforgettable vacations every day and the friendly, yet, tailored relaxed luxury experience that Celebrity is known for,” a Celebrity spokesperson said in an emailed statement.

Planning a cruise?: Here are the documents and costs to keep in mind

The cruise line automatically adds gratuities to passengers’ onboard accounts, unless they have an Excluded Booking that include stateroom and restaurant service gratuities and a 20% beverage package tip, according to the line’s website . That applies to Celebrity’s All Included rate, as well as AquaClass staterooms and The Retreat suites.

The changes come as other cruise lines have raised prices in the wake of inflation and the industry's continued recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic . Many have increased gratuity prices , and lines such as MSC Cruises and Carnival Cruise Line have also increased fees for beverage packages .

Best Aqua class on Eclipse

By sdnich , December 3, 2021 in Celebrity Cruises

Recommended Posts

I just posted the question yesterday what is the Best SS on the eclipse but after talking about it and weighing out the cost we think we might want to go with an aqua class and do a B2B for a bit more about $3000  It would be a 12 day South America and 16 day repo to LA . So what my question is what is one of the best aqua class rooms ? We definitely wouldn’t want to be under the pool I am a light sleeper.

The other question is we’re talking about 28 days which we have never done anything longer than 15 . And we did it in a SS so a little bit worried about feeling cramped. We are booked on the infinity in 2023 and are thinking about rolling it to the eclipse 2024 .

I am looking at rooms 1540 and 1544 right now and my travel agent is calling me back this afternoon so any input is appreciated.

 I apologize for the long question

What do you mean by best? Closest to elevator? Midship? Quietest? Highest deck?

You are going to hear so many responses, all which are valid to the responder of course, but you are going to have to weed through them and make your best decision.  Also look for some YouTube videos, they are out there.  Happy sailing 

I might be on the Eclipse in late 2023 for a South America cruise.  I don't know if it will be smooth or rough, but we can't be sure, so we are avoiding aft cabins.  I'll pick something midship 15xx so you have a deck of cabins between you and the pool.  Check the cabin spreadsheets to find out about those specific cabins you are looking at.

Ken the cruiser

I would suggest booking one between 1624 - 1650 as there are cabins both above and below those. We're on a 30-day B3B in Apr 2023 and we booked one of those. Also, I would check to see which side of the ship will have the afternoon sun on sea days and choose the opposite side for the "shade" affect.  😎

Just an FYI, SS cabins are not that much bigger than AQ cabins. 

Best AQs on S claass are the A2s. We never use the free upgrade on S class and choose a stateroom under the Persian Garden or Salon

Yeah I guess “best “ is really subjective !! My TA just called me so I told him 1544 or 1540 would work. I did like that it was underneath the retail store and close to the elevator and stairs. The SS is not that much larger but we’ve been in a couple and we do like the extra room and love Luminae!! But with the money we save it will almost pay for the second cruise in an aqua class room .We were in a SS before Luminae and we really enjoyed blu ! we will spend some of the  money we saved on specialty restaurants.

We are booked on the Eclipse in 1540 for 28 days March 2024 !! Buenos Aires to Los Angeles!

Are you flying in to BA or are you local? 

20 hours ago, zitsky said:   Are you flying in to BA or are you local? 

No not local. we are flying from San Diego to BA. Then cruise home to Los Angeles and rent  a car to get home. Or at least  that is  the plan for now!

When sailing AQ on an S-Class ship - and we have done that a LOT, we always a try to book between 1540 and 1550, with 1540 being the preferred location. It’s under the reception area of the spa so there’s no significant noise. It’s close to the elevator and the stairs up to Persian Gardens. You’re at the opposite end of the ship from Blu and the buffet but that’s probably a good thing. The biggest downside is that if you’re heading to your cabin after the evening show, there’s a crowd at the elevator outside the theatre. So, we walk to midship, take the elevator up then walk back, thus burning a few more calories before bed.

Everybody's idea of best is different. I prefer mid-ship, near the elevators, and cabins with a partial overhang (if available, such as deck 9 on the Summit). Everyone has a different concept of what is convenient and pleasurable. If you've cruised on Celebrity ships, then you should be able to tell from the deck plans.
