Is Celebrity Reflection's Aqua Class Worth It? A Deep Dive Review

 

Planning your next cruise getaway and eyeing a cabin upgrade? Celebrity Reflection remains a beloved staple of Celebrity Cruises’ Solstice class. Though she originally debuted in 2012, this ship still delivers premium modern luxury especially if you book a premium Aqua Class stateroom on the 15th floor.

Step inside an Aqua Class cabin and you will immediately notice the thoughtful design. Recent updates have brought in newer, elegant furniture and an abundance of clever storage options, including spacious overhead cabinets located directly above the bed. A savvy booking tip for cruisers: veranda rooms configured with the bed closer to the bathroom tend to feel slightly larger and offer a more open room layout. The bathroom itself elevates your daily routine with a multi-jet spa shower that is incredibly refreshing after a long day at port.

Of course, the real value of Aqua Class lies in its exclusive perks. Guests are welcomed into their staterooms with free champagne and gain exclusive dining access to Blu, a health-conscious specialty restaurant reserved solely for Aqua Class and suite travelers.

Furthermore, you receive unlimited complimentary access to the onboard thermal suite. The spa experience features heated mosaic tile beds positioned right in front of floor-to-ceiling windows, allowing you to lay back and enjoy stunning, unobstructed ocean views. The facility also hosts a traditional sauna and an invigorating icy cold room to refresh your senses. While the thermal suite on this Solstice-class vessel can get busy and doesn’t quite match the sprawling, ultra-modern layouts found on Celebrity's newer Edge-class ships, it still offers a top-tier wellness sanctuary. When you are ready to transition from ultimate relaxation to high energy, Fortunes Casino is just a short walk away, packed with exciting slots and classic table games.

So, would you pay a couple hundred dollars more for Aqua Class on a short 3-to-4-night cruise? Let us know in the comments below!
