Celebrity Xploration — the basics, and what to ask
At 19 berths this is closer to a private yacht than a floating resort.
She dates from 2007, so expect a refit or two in her history. Ask about cabin condition rather than assuming — refurbished and un-refurbished cabins on the same ship can be years apart.
Expect itinerary and service to be the product rather than onboard facilities. These ships go places the big ones physically cannot.
Passenger-to-crew works out around 1.9 to 1 — comfortable, roughly the mainstream standard.
Cabins run from deck 2 to deck 3 across 2 decks. The usual advice applies and applies harder on a ship this shape: mid-ship and low is the steadiest ride, and what sits directly above your cabin matters more than the view out of it.
If you know this ship, the question people keep asking is which cabins to avoid. That answer only exists in people who have stayed in them.
