Celebrity Beyond is the third and largest ship in Celebrity's Edge class, stretched 30 feet longer than Celebrity Edge and Celebrity Apex to accommodate more space per guest. Interior designer Tom Wright (Burj Al Arab) contributed to the ship's aesthetic, which feels genuinely luxurious without being stuffy. The Magic Carpet — Edge class's signature cantilevered platform — takes on a new role as an extension of different venues depending on the deck. The Rooftop Garden replaces the Edge class's standard pool deck with a beautifully landscaped alfresco space, and the dining programme is the most evolved in Celebrity's fleet.

✦ The standout feature

The Rooftop Garden — a full deck of lush, landscaped gardens at the top of the ship with a pool, bar, live music stage, and lawn games. Unlike standard cruise pool decks, the Rooftop Garden is designed to feel like an upscale rooftop restaurant and bar, complete with proper lounge furniture and curated planting.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does Celebrity Beyond compare to Celebrity Ascent?
They are sister ships in the same Edge class with nearly identical amenities. Celebrity Ascent (2023) is slightly newer with updated restaurant concepts. Celebrity Beyond is the larger of the two (slightly). Itinerary choice matters more than the ship when choosing between them.
What is Eden on Celebrity Beyond?
Eden is a three-deck space at the stern of the ship that functions as a restaurant, bar, and entertainment venue depending on the time of day. At dinner, it's one of the most spectacular dining rooms at sea with a living plant wall and the best views. At night it transforms into an adults-only performance space with avant-garde shows.
Is Celebrity Beyond worth the premium over mainstream cruise lines?
For couples and adult travellers who appreciate quality food, design, and a less chaotic atmosphere, yes. Celebrity's drink packages often include premium spirits and the dining quality is meaningfully better than lines like Carnival or Royal Caribbean. The gap narrows when comparing same-category inside cabins — the experience premium is most notable in veranda cabins and above.
