Celebrity Edge – New Ship Coming 2018

March 24, 2017 by Casey

CELEBRITY EDGE – COMING 2018

Celebrity Cruises, the company that brought you modern luxury cruising, has done it again. Introducing a revolutionary new ship that’s poised to change the way you experience the world—and a new class of ships designed to shatter all expectations.

When it came time to choose a name for this visionary vessel, we looked to the very thing that makes this ship so unique: the fact that during two years of exploration and excitement, every single design element has been taken to the leading edge of possibility. The name was right there in front of us.

Celebrity Edge. The first in our new Edge Class of ships designed to leave the future behind.

A Few Celebrity Edge Features:

Trasnformative Spaces

As the sun sets, the groundbreaking spaces on Celebrity Edge transform to deliver completely new experiences. By day, outward-facing ocean views, ever-changing abstract artwork, and unexpected entertainment create a luxurious resort-style atmosphere. At night, ambient lighting, unique al fresco dining, and live music set the scene for energy, intimacy, and elegance

The Resort Deck

This space offers endless ways to enjoy the great outdoors while connecting with the sea. Featuring a forward-facing, asymmetric pool, martini hot tubs,  jogging track that winds around the Rooftop Garden on two decks, and private cabanas that overlook the ocean, there’s a little something for everyone onboard the Edge.

Rooftop Garden

An urban playscape designed after childhood playgrounds where you can catch a movie, have a picnic, or dance among the stars.

Magic Carpet

The highlight of our outward-facing vision is the Magic Carpet, an extraordinary venue that changes mood, function, and even its location. This incredible engineering feat is the world’s first cantilevered, floating platform that reaches heights of 13 stories above sea level, so you can soar over the open ocean. With breathtaking views, a full bar, and space for live music performances, it truly is a destination itself.

Edge Stateroom with Infinite Veranda

The most transformational aspect of Celebrity Edge’s stateroom design is the introduction of the Edge Stateroom with Infinite Veranda, where with the touch of a button, your entire living space becomes the veranda, letting you walk right out to the water’s edge. Not only do these staterooms feature the latest in design and technology, but they’re 23% larger than our award-winning Solstice® Class veranda staterooms.

Nate Berkus – Design Ambassador

Design icon Nate Berkus partnered with Celebrity Cruises as the Design Ambassador for the Edge Class ships. His forward-thinking style and global aesthetic made him the perfect fit for Celebrity’s cutting edge new ship.

Up & Coming Destinations: Belize

March 17, 2017 by Casey

Believed to be the heart of the Maya civilization, Belize offers travelers the life-changing opportunity to explore Mayan ruins at more than 1,400 recorded Mayan sites. Lamanai, Xunantunic, Caracol and Altun Ha are excellent archaeological sites to visit to explore what remains of the ancient civilization.

After visiting Mayan ruins, travelers can head to the Museum of Belize to see the largest carved jade Mayan object ever discovered as well as many other Mayan artifacts. The museum is housed in a former prison, making it an interesting destination in itself.

Travelers who want to be a bit more active have many choices when visiting Belize. Scuba diving, snorkeling, sailing, kayaking, horseback riding, fishing, caving…the list of adventurous activities in Belize never ends. Divers should head to Great Blue Hole, considered one of the best diving spots in the world. Located 43 miles from the mainland, the submarine sinkhole is over 900 feet across and 400 feet deep. Scuba divers can experience striking stalactites and many different species of fish. The Great Blue Hole is suited best to experienced divers, but snorkeling is very popular and enjoyable there.

Belize is home to other natural wonders, such as the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef, which touches the coasts of Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras as well as Belize. One hundred and eighty-five miles of the reef are just off the coast of Belize (it stretches almost 700 miles in total) is home to 60 types of hard corals, over 500 species of fish and an abundance of other marine life. As the largest barrier reef in the Western Hemisphere, it was listed as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1996.

Quick Facts:

  • U.S. travelers: Valid passport needed for entry
  • Official language: English
  • Official currency: Belize dollar (American dollars are widely accepted)
  • Climate: Average high temperature of 80° F and average low temperature of 75° F, but temperatures vary based on elevation

Fun Belize Excursions:

  • River Tubing through caves (as pictured above)
  • Snorkeling the largest barrier reef in the Western Hemisphere
  • Visiting Mayan ruins
