WE DIDN’T FIND YOUR CUSTOMERS' HAPPY PLACE, WE BUILT IT.
08 July 2025

We didn’t just build a ship. We built the holiday your customers will always remember.
The restaurant they'll never forget. The date night so good it lasts all day long.
The pool day to outshine all other pool days. We built new ways for your customers to explore the world before they even get there. New chances for them to restore like never before. A new check mark on their bucket list.
We built your customers happy place. Say hello to Celebrity Xcel.
Celebrity Xcel is sailing her inaugural season from Fort Lauderdale, offering seven-night itineraries alternating between the Bahamas, Mexico, Cayman Islands, Puerto Plata, St. Thomas, and St. Maarten. In Summer 2026, Celebrity Xcel will set sail on her inaugural European season where guests can immerse themselves in the Mediterranean like never before on seven-to 11-night journeys out of Barcelona and Athens, including all new overnight stays in Madeira, Portugal.
Our newest ship debuts in November 2025. Find out more about what your customers can expect on board, below...

SEVEN NEW SPACES
Celebrity Xcel introduces seven new spaces and countless new experiences that take your customers far away from the everyday. The Bazaar completely erases the line between ship and shore. Bora takes brunch through the roof. Celebrity Pool Club is an all-new, all-day outdoor destination featuring the Poolest Day Ever. The Spa features a new Hydra Room and Vitamin D Deck. Any time is game time at the new Attic at The Club. And our new Celebrity Flagship is the store that makes your customers part of our story.
BORA

We’re taking brunch through the roof at our new alfresco restaurant, Bora. With the best sea views from the top of the ship and an over-the-top Bloody Mary bar, this is more than a meal, it’s a celebration. After the sun sets, Bora brings the flavours of the Mediterranean to your clients table like never before. With the stars above, every table is the best in the house. Dinner is intimate and personalised with elevated cocktails and dishes prepared tableside. So, whether they're in the mood for a deliciously lively brunch or an elegantly romantic dinner, Bora is a must-do for their date night that lasts all day long.
THE BAZAAR
Celebrity Xcel doesn’t just bring your customers to some of the world’s best places. It brings those places along for the ride. With The Bazaar, we’re no longer just blurring the line between ship and shore. We’re erasing the line completely. From the culture, flavours, sights, and sounds of the destinations your customers will visit to the local festivals they’re famous for, the experience is so authentic, they won’t even know you’re not there, yet.
CELEBRITY POOL CLUB

Welcome to Celebrity Pool Club, where pool days are so good, your customers will never want them to end. They'll enjoy more shade, more personalised service, more entertainment, and some unexpected treats. Forgot their sunscreen? Need a chilled towel? They van visit their Pool Valet for poolside services and amenities. They can also choose to go VIP in their own cabana with dedicated service, elevated sips and bites and a front row seat to the action. At Celebrity Pool Club, it’s never just another day at the pool.
On every Caribbean sailing, at Celebrity Pool Club, your customers can experience The Poolest Day Ever. Caribbean inspired live music and DJ-spun favorites set the mood throughout the day. Your customers can dive in with a guided meditation poolside or a dance class in the pool. Soak up the sun and chill out with frozen fruits, boozy ice cream, and poptails (think popsicle meets cocktail). Get caught up in pop-up shows and friendly pool games. When the sun goes down, the energy goes up at our Shine the Night poolside party where they’ll shine even brighter than the stars.
THE SPA

Your customers will enjoy more ways to restore than ever before at The Spa on Celebrity Xcel. They can unwind in our first-ever Hydra Room, a new therapeutic H20 experience in the SEA Thermal Suite. Soak up their daily dose of sunshine at the new outdoor Vitamin D Deck. In our biggest spa at sea, they can choose from more than 120 treatments, therapies, and experiences, and they can get their glam on at the expanded salon. Those seeking a total mind-body reset can choose a spa-inspired AquaClass stateroom as their personal sanctuary, where they’ll enjoy restorative perks and services along with unlimited, complimentary access to the SEA Thermal Suite.
CELEBRITY FLAGSHIP

It’s part museum, part retail therapy, and totally Celebrity Cruises. The minute your customers step inside, they step into our story. Discovering how we’ve been ruining all other holidays since 1988 with interactive experiences and curated exhibits. They can start their own collection with one-of-a-kind Celebrity logo gear, Xcel exclusives, and vintage collectibles they won’t find anywhere else. Not even the internet. Plus, they can personalise their keepsakes and mark their place in history with us. After all, we wouldn’t be who we are without them.
ATTIC AT THE CLUB

When guests come up to the Attic at The Club, it’s game time anytime. The neon glow sets the scene for friendly competition. Whether they’re shooting pool, playing darts, or aiming for the top of the leaderboard on their favorite arcade classics, this is the place to get your game on.
For a private get-together, they can book The Annex. The virtual simulator lets them play their favorite sports—a game of baseball, football, or a round of golf on one of the world’s best courses. Rock out at a karaoke night. Settle in for a movie night, complete with popcorn. Or make it their own party lounge to celebrate a special occasion.
