Celebrity Cruises’ newest ship Celebrity Beyond℠ welcomes guests to an extraordinary vessel designed to offer more luxury and additional space starting with her maiden voyage in April 2022. The third ship in the cruise line’s luxurious Edge® Series, Celebrity Beyond℠ begins her inaugural season sailing the breathtaking waters of Europe’s greatest destinations. The vessel lives up to its name going beyond in terms of amenities, design, and offerings. A dream team of modern lifestyle icons have created incomparable experiences that invite guests to disconnect from the world and connect with each other, the sea and the remarkable locales they visit along the way.
The outward-facing design and innovative spaces of Celebrity Beyond℠go beyond to enhance the onboard experience even more. The design of acclaimed architect Tom Wright of WKK expands the outdoor spaces by stretching the length of the ship by 20 meters and making it taller at 17 decks. The new multi-level, multi-terraced Sunset Bar on the ship’s redefined aft is 180 percent larger. A redesigned and expanded Rooftop Garden brings guests closer to the water’s edge. More luxurious touches have been added to the two-story and 40 percent larger sundeck of The Retreat, the exclusive resort-within-a-resort for suite guests. Additional culinary experiences include the new signature restaurant Le Voyage by world-renowned chef Daniel Boulud. Celebrity Beyond℠ offers 179 more suites and staterooms than her sister ships for a total of 1,646. The redesigned Grand Plaza spans three decks. And the returning and not-to-be-missed open-air Magic Carpet takes guests on a journey with a view as it glides up and down the side of the ship and over the water.
Captain Kate McCue, America’s first female cruise captain, is just the start of the dream team that makes Celebrity Beyond℠ a luxurious and literal dream come true. Celebrity Cruises brought together the talents of some of today’s greatest names in lifestyle design. The visions of multi-award-winning British designer Kelly Hoppen CBE and well-known American designer Nate Berkus, both working in collaboration with top architect Tom Wright of WKK on certain projects, can be seen in some of the new public spaces of the ship. Celebrity’s Global Culinary Ambassador and Michelin-starred chef and restaurateur Daniel Boulud offers his exceptional culinary creations onboard. And wellness experiences and products from Celebrity’s Well-being Advisor Gwyneth Paltrow, goop CEO and founder, can be enjoyed for those seeking special pampering during their voyage.
Celebrity Beyond℠ kicks off her inaugural season April 2022 in Europe, with the majority of voyages sailing along the Mediterranean coast. Italy, Greece, France, Spain and Malta are among the countries visited. It’s maiden voyage is a 10-night Western Europe itinerary, leaving from Southampton, England.
