Rooms so Stunning You Won’t Want to Close Your Eyes

Nothing is more important on a vacation than the place you relax and recharge in between all the exciting experiences you’ll have each day. Our Edge® Series set a new standard in world-class accommodations, but Celebrity AscentSM shows you can even improve on perfection. From our Edge Single Staterooms with Infinite Verandas® designed for the solo traveler—which we’ve doubled in number—to the unparalleled luxury of The Retreat®, featuring expanded and redesigned exclusive spaces, the accommodations on Celebrity Ascent are designed to make you feel even more at home while you travel the world.

No matter which of Celebrity Ascent’s staterooms you choose, you’ll rest easily on eXhale® bedding and CashmereTM mattresses designed exclusively for Celebrity. In fact, nearly every stateroom and suite on Celebrity Ascent features a king-sized bed. We want you fully refreshed and ready to explore every day of your vacation. Plus, in-room automation allows you to adjust everything from your shades to your lighting to your AC with the tap of a screen. As we’ve done throughout our Edge Series, we’ve thought of every comfort and refined every detail. So, welcome home—to Celebrity Ascent.

The Retreat

HERE, THE WORLD REALLY DOES REVOLVE AROUND YOU

You’d think a suite like one of ours would be enough. Not to us. All suites at The Retreat come with a dedicated butler who’s just a message away. You get access to an exclusive sundeck and lounge that make you feel like you have the ship to yourself. Your table awaits at Luminae, your private, suites-only restaurant. And, you’ll enjoy more perks and amenities than ever before. The Retreat isn’t just a suite. It’s the most elevated experience at sea, period.  

YOUR HOME OCEANS AWAY FROM HOME

It’s almost impossible to tell which is better—the views outside your suite or the views inside. But who cares? It’s all yours to enjoy. From roomy living areas and oversized verandas to Cashmere mattresses and plush robes, this is living large down to the smallest detail.  

The Retreat Sundeck

We’ve elevated relaxing and restoring at your exclusive sundeck. Kick back on a comfy shaded lounger and let your Retreat Attendants bring you anything you need, like towels, drinks, snacks, you name it. Take a dip in the pool or the hot tub. Get together with friends for a round of drinks at the bar. This is your outdoor escape for doing as much—or as little—as you want. 

Luminae at The Retreat 

This is the kind of restaurant that’s so good, you have to be somebody to get in. Luckily, as a guest of The Retreat, you are somebody. Your private restaurant serves up exclusive menus you won’t find anywhere else on board, including new complimentary signature dishes designed by our Global Culinary Ambassador Daniel Boulud. 

The Retreat Lounge 

Think of this as your secret clubhouse—all grown up. It’s a place you can drop in anytime for some coffee or drinks on us, a bite to eat, and a spot to curl up with a book or catch up with friends.

AquaClass

Our newly enhanced AquaClass stateroom experience is more ahh-inspiring than ever. It starts with your Infinite Veranda stateroom that erases the boundaries between indoor and outdoor living. Spa-inspired elements are thoughtfully infused throughout, including pillow menus, our exclusive eXhale bedding, plush cotton robes and slippers, a massaging showerhead, eco-friendly bathroom products, yoga mats, on-demand wellness programming on your stateroom TV, daily bottled water service, and an enhanced air filtration system—which you’ll now find in all our staterooms.

Concierge Class

Our Concierge Class staterooms pair the luxury of your Infinite Veranda stateroom with an array of services and amenities, from an exclusive lunch, a destination seminar and dedicated concierge who’s always just steps away from your stateroom to help with anything you need.

Edge Stateroom with Infinite Veranda

Enjoy open air access to the sea and bring the outside inside with the touch of a button in our revolutionary Infinite Veranda staterooms. These staterooms feature the latest in design and technology, and they’re 23% larger than our award-winning Solstice® Series veranda staterooms.

Veranda on Edge

Enjoy the great outdoors—and stunning ocean views—with the luxury of your own private veranda. And, with our state-of-the-art technology, you can precisely adjust nearly every comfort feature of your room. Choose from the Sunset Veranda or the Deluxe Porthole view with Veranda.

Ocean View Stateroom

Our version of a room with a view—these staterooms offer larger living spaces and breathtaking views of scenery that changes daily.

Inside Stateroom

Stylishly designed with ample living space, bigger bathrooms, and more storage space, the Deluxe Inside and Inside Staterooms are a comfortable home away from home where you’ll find it easy to unwind.

Go Green is the latest addition to our existing Save the Waves program. Our new housekeeping initiative allows you to earn rewards while reducing your footprint. Opt-in for reduced housekeeping services to conserve energy and resource consumption. You’ll still experience the highest standards of cleanliness, plus the added flexibility of choosing your preferred time of service -all while traveling more responsibly.

Accessible Stateroom

Edge Accessible Staterooms are designed with wider doors, roll-in showers, grab bars, and other special features for guests with mobility issues and other disabilities.
