Celebrity Cruises® is taking the luxury suite experience to a new level with a collection of premium and personalized enhancements to The Retreat.For guests staying in The Retreat, the experience goes well beyond having a beautiful suite. Celebrity Cruises is focusing on the details that make a luxury cruise feel more personal—from elevated amenities and attentive service to experiences designed around what guests value most.“At The Retreat, the world really does revolve around our guests,” said Laura Hodges Bethge, President of Celebrity Cruises. “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.” What’s Included? Every suite in The Retreat comes with a dedicated butler, and now getting in touch with your butler is easier than ever. With the new Butler Chat feature, guests can send a message directly to their butler for quick, one-on-one assistance—whether they’re relaxing in their suite, exploring the ship, or even enjoying time ashore. Planning your time ashore just got a little easier for guests of The Retreat. A dedicated Retreat Destination Experience Specialist is now available to help guests make the most of each port of call—from planning destination experiences and shore excursions to arranging smooth transfers when exploring Celebrity’s most sought-after destinations.It’s another personalized touch designed to take some of the guesswork out of exploring each destination, so Retreat guests can spend more time enjoying their time ashore.
