Step into innovative design of Celebrity Ascent, the latest ship to join the Edge-class fleet within the Celebrity Cruises line.
Since her debut in the Caribbean islands in December 2023, this addition to the fleet brings innovation and sleek design to the tropics. Including some of Celebrity’s favourite venues include Raw on 5, a sushi and cocktails sensation, and Eden, a multi-level bar, Celebrity Ascent is bound to impress.
While cruises aboard Celebrity Ascent are family friendly, you won’t find the children’s entertainment you might see on other ships. Celebrity’s customisable kids club ‘Camp at Sea’ is a plus and a great place for children of all ages to find activities and make new friends. Elsewhere, the ship is ideal for passengers looking to add a little luxury to their Caribbean itinerary. Spacious lounges, eclectic bars and upscale dining pairs well with Celebrity Ascent’s varied range of chic staterooms.

Celebrity Ascent cruises promise to take you on a culinary journey ‘like no other’. And, with 32 different food and drink experiences on board, Celebrity Ascent looks set to be a feast for the senses. Menus have been created by Cornelius Gallagher, a Michelin-starred chef who worked at Oceana in Midtown Manhattan. Guests can take a seat at 8 specialty restaurants, including Celebrity’s popular Fine Cut Steakhouse. Innovation continues with a new take on Le Petit Chef, where an Immersive experience brings animation and entertainment to your interactive table top.
As the fourth ship in Celebrity’s Edge-class, Celebrity Ascent includes the high-tech advances the series has become famous for. The incredible engineering feat of the Magic Carpet is a stunning spot to enjoy a drink. Taking a seat to enjoy live music on this cantilevered, floating platform high above sea level is a moment to remember. And you can expect innovation to be at the forefront of every entertainment option. From the Flash Flair Fusion performances of the bartenders, serving drinks under the glow of The Martini Bar’s LEDs, to the state-of-the-art Technogym in The Fitness Center, there’s a revolutionary activity for everyone. Promising more outside space, ocean views and extraordinary experiences, Celebrity Ascent looks set to wow both seasoned cruisers and cruising newcomers alike.
The six, two-storey villas that are exclusive to Celebrity’s Edge-class may well hog the spotlight when it comes to accommodation on Celebrity Ascent, but it’s worth taking note of all of the cabins onboard. Revamps start with the single cabins – they’ve doubled in number, making solo cruise travel a little more accessible, and they come with ‘Infinite Verandas’ – a high tech feature where your cabin becomes the veranda at the touch of a button.
