Celebrity Cruises® elevates suite life with new premium and tailored improvements for The Retreat, offering the most elevated experience at ship. The Retreat is more than a room; it offers more perks and facilities than ever before. It’s the best experience at sea, period.
Laura Hodges Bethge, President of Celebrity Cruises, said, “At The Retreat, the world really does revolve around our guests. We collected extensive feedback from past guests, loyalty members and our trade partners to inform how The Retreat experiences are being reimagined to continue exceeding vacation expectations by delivering on the amenities and experiences Celebrity Cruises guests value most.”
To ensure guests don’t have to lift a finger while on vacation, all suites at The Retreat include a dedicated butler, who is now just a message away using Butler Chat, allowing for faster and easier one-on-one contact from wherever on board or onshore. A dedicated shore excursion expert, The Retreat Destination Experience Specialist, is now available to help guests of The Retreat make the most of their time on shore, from planning destination-related activities to ensuring smooth transfers when visiting Celebrity’s most popular ports of call. Guests can also rest in The Retreat Lounge before their excursions, and they will be escorted by a butler from suite to car for Private Journeys excursions.
Culinary improvements have been made to the offerings at Luminae, the elite suites-only restaurant, including new Daniel Boulud Signature dishes and a new rotating dinner and dessert menu. Guests can enjoy bespoke daily treats from the in-suite dining menu, as well as a complimentary fully stocked minibar.
