Kids may find that they need to retreat to the various kids venues on Celebrity Beyond if they really want to find activities catered to their needs. Cabanas are available for rent around the pool area; though they’re pricey (around $500), they do come with lots of amenities, like free-flowing drinks and food. As the Celebrity cruise line as a whole is more geared toward adults than families or kids, the entertainment trends this way as well.

Special features include king-sized mattresses, verandas and split bathrooms with soaking tubs. You can’t talk about the Celebrity Edge series without giving a shout out to the Magic Carpet. Debuting first on Edge and back again on Beyond, the Magic Carpet is a tennis-court sized platform nestled against the side of the ship, literally floating above the ocean.
Soak up the Sun at the Pool
The facility features two (new for the fleet) separate spaces (for kids and teens) called "The Basement". Even if you normally don’t consider yourself much of a foodie, it’s worth springing for dining at one (or all!) of these specialty restaurants aboard a Celebrity Beyond cruise. Regardless if you do, though, you’ll find plenty of dining options aboard this ship, and plenty of menu options at every spot. Beyond single staterooms with Infinite Verandas, you can also book just regular staterooms with Infinite Verandas.
FROM THE EDGE TO BEYOND
The ship holds 3,260 guests and features 1,646 staterooms, with more restaurants, bars, and lounges than either ship before it. One of the surprises aboard Beyond was the enviable art sprinkled throughout every nook and cranny. A truly global showcase of talent, I often found myself thinking I would absolutely have that in my home. Lastly, it would be remiss not to mention that Celebrity Beyond is captained by Kate McCue, the first American female cruise ship captain. The ship includes features such as "The Retreat," a space that will be available only to suite guests with a lounge and a two-story deck.
The first course, for example, is the story of the humble tomato and its South American origins, the table a rippling vision of colorful scenes, agricultural fields, boats, and mountains of tomatoes. The dish, when it appears, is a dainty tomato tart, bursting with flavor. Beyond has no less than 18 places to dine, ranging from a steakhouse to a classic French bistro. Get there early (the Chandelier Show is on the schedule in the daily program) and get a front-row seat to watch the performance. French sculptor Fabien Merelle’s L’origine is a life-sized white elephant balanced on a man’s back, perches at one end of the pool. You’ll be constantly in awe of Celebrity Beyond’s 4,500-piece art collection.
Each of these cabins measures in at 243 square feet of interior space and 42 square feet on the veranda. Celebrity Beyond features double the number of single staterooms as you might’ve found on past ships, for more opportunities to book one of these coveted cabins. Interior space measures in at between 202 and 228 square feet, while each veranda measures in at between 40 and 89 square feet (so, depending on which cabin you book, you may find that you get double the exterior space!). Seating areas are configured differently in these staterooms, to allow for large, glass sliding patio doors to take up the cabin’s far wall, so you can enjoy views both inside and outside your cabin. Celebrity Beyond offers Edge-class features such as the Eden observation lounge, and a magic carpet tender dock. It also is the very first Celebrity cruise ship to offer SpaceX Starlink internet service.
Discover the Wonders of the Caribbean
The Sunset Bar also has a new menu of $8 eats, such as hummus and flatbreads, for afternoon noshes. You have to search to find some venues; the Mast Grill is particularly hard to find on the Resort Deck, and many people forget about that healthy choices are available at both the Solarium and the Eden Cafe. That said, be careful with where you book your suite, or room, particularly if you're a sun lover. Because the top deck on Celebrity Beyond stretches a bit over the ship itself, many of the rooms on the higher deck don't get any sun on their balconies (infinite or otherwise).
Explore exclusive menus that you won’t find anywhere else on board, including signature dishes designed by legendary chef Daniel Boulud, our Global Culinary Ambassador. The joy of being on a cruise ship is that everything is close by, nobody has to drive (apart from the captain), and your kids are safe. Celebrity’s long-standing mission to embrace diversity shines through on the new ship, including in the crew. Popular Captain Kate McCue, for example, at the helm of Beyond, is the first American woman to captain a major cruise ship.

Meet-ups for solos and LGBTQ+ passengers take place daily, and a Pride Night is held every cruise. If you are a light sleeper, do not book any of the aft-facing cabins on decks 7 or 8. These are above Eden, and you absolutely will hear and feel the music while you are in your cabin. The Infinite Verandas that debuted on Celebrity Edge remains a staple of Celebrity Beyond.
She often brings to the bridge her Sphynx cat named Bug Naked, whose semi-official title on board is "Maneuvering Support Mammal". Captain Kate McCue is also the first American woman to captain a "Mega" cruise ship. The Grand Plaza serves as the ship's epicenter (midship location) and spans 3 decks.
Celebrity Beyond is luxurious without seeming opulent, and chic without overloading on glitz. Whether you want to clear your mind, fine-tune your body, reinvigorate your spirit—or all of the above—The Spa and Fitness Center is an indulgent escape where you can do it all. On May 10, 2022, Celebrity Cruises announced that gymnast Simone Biles will be the godmother of the ship. The christening ceremony was on November 4, 2022, held in Port Everglades/Fort Lauderdale. The naming event was led Simone Biles and attended by the ship's Master (Captain Kate McCue), Jason Liberty and Lisa Lutoff-Perlo. The ceremony was attended by Lisa Lutoff-Perlo, Laurent Castaing, as well as by Jason Liberty (RCG-Royal Caribbean Group’s new President and CEO).
The ceremony was attended by Lisa Lutoff-Perlo (Celebrity's President and CEO) and Laurent Castaing (Shipyard's General Manager). The Caribbean season 2022 started with the 9-night "Southern Caribbean" inaugural cruise (departing on Oct 26th). Craft Social Bar (debuted on Celebrity Apex) features large selections of premium wines (sold by the glass), craft cocktails and craft beers (50+ brands, including several of the world's rarest). The boat has 16 decks, of which 15 are passenger-accessible and 10 with cabins. Both offer age-appropriate programming, activities and amenities like video game systems and games.
