Dining

Main Dining:
As you enter Celebrity's main dining room, crystal glasses, exquisite china and gleaming silverware shine in anticipation. A dramatic setting for any meal, this elegant dining room features an endless array of cuisine including breakfast, lunch and dinner - all prepared under the guidance of award-winning Master Chef's. Perfectly presented and incredibly delicious, Celebrity cuisine is not only abundant, it is prepared following the highest culinary standards

Casual Dining:
On a Celebrity ship, casual dining is just as special and enjoyable as formal dining. While casual dining may include a relaxing poolside grill, the Sushi café or complimentary 24-hour room service, the experience, flavor and attention to detail remain unmatched. When you opt for a casual-dining setting, a casual dress code applies.

Specialty Dining:
When preparation moves from kitchen to tableside, the meal is transformed into a finely-orchestrated performance. So it is with Celebrity's specialty restaurants located on celebrity's Millennium-class ships. Reminiscent of ocean liners of the past, these distinctively elegant restaurants offer a dining experience like no other at sea. Savor the five-course menu creations of Master Chef's prepared tableside with a medley of aromatic ingredients. Relish the timeless ambiance of an intimate dine-in wine cellar. Each restaurant is equally spectacular offering its own taste of history and unparalleled service. Proper dining attire is required and per person cover charge applies.

Spa

Offering the most complete beauty, health and fitness services at sea, Celebrity Cruise's world-class AquaSpa indulges both body and soul. Choose from a full menu of AquaSpa packages, including deluxe manicures, luxurious facials and Aqua Meditation showers. In the Hydrotherapy spa bath, fresh water is blended with seaweed and minerals as hundreds of tiny aqua jets massage the body. Rasul features a cleansing seaweed-soap shower, medicinal muds and an herbal steam bath. Ionithermie Superdetox uses such ingredients as kelp, ivy and clay to promote a firmer, smoother-looking appearance. Personal fitness training sessions help you tone, shape and rejuvenate.

AquaSpa packages offer guests a balance of treatments and services at a lower price than purchasing the same services separately. AquaSpa packages can be purchased either prior to sailing or once onboard the vessel. To purchase an AquaSpa package prior to sailing please contact your travel agent (if you have reserved with a travel agent) or Celebrity's Reservations Department (if you have reserved directly with Celebrity).

Unfortunately, it is not possible to purchase a portion of an AquaSpa package in advance. If you are interested in purchasing a portion of a package please contact the AquaSpa once onboard the vessel.
