点评:We just returned from a New Year's Eve cruise, and had the opportunity to visit this lovely port for a whole day. Celebration Key, the new and highly promoted resort area in the Bahamas managed by Carnival Cruise Lines, is a very worthwhile port stop for those who enjoy sun, sand, surf, and gigantic pools.
The resort is created to offer visitors a variety of experiences, and one can spend no extra money at all, or splurge and spend hundreds, or even thousands in one day.
We liked that the ship docked right at the pier, but we did opt to take the shuttles to the central area, because it can be a long walk.
Sadly, December weather is not truly conducive to swimming in the large unheated pools, or jumping deep in the ocean, but it is wonderful to stroll around the shopping plaza complete with its own parade, or sit and enjoy a restful time in a comfortable lounge chair at either the pool or the beach. There are both child-friendly and adult-only areas available.
Some visitors rented large cabanas, or booked a more active shore excursion, or even ventured out of the resort area to explore, so there are a variety of options to suit everyone.
We did check out the menus of the different "meal included" restaurants, and found the food acceptable, but a bit like a cafeteria-style quality, and somewhat basic in selections.
We would certainly enjoy returning to this port on a future cruise, but would hope for hot (not warm) weather to enjoy all the water amenities.
翻译:我们刚结束了一次跨年游轮之旅,并有机会在这个美丽的港口停留了一整天。庆典礁(Celebration Key)是嘉年华邮轮公司在巴哈马群岛运营的新兴度假区,备受瞩目,对于喜欢阳光、沙滩、冲浪和巨型泳池的游客来说,绝对值得一游。
度假村旨在为游客提供丰富多彩的体验,您可以选择完全免费,也可以挥霍一番,一天之内消费数百甚至数千美元。
我们很喜欢游轮直接停靠在码头,但因为步行前往中心区域需要花费不少时间,所以我们还是选择了乘坐摆渡车。
可惜的是,十二月的天气并不太适合在大型非加热泳池中游泳,或者跳入深海,但漫步在有游行表演的购物广场,或者在泳池边或沙滩上舒适的躺椅上享受悠闲时光,都是不错的选择。这里既有儿童友好区域,也有成人专属区域。
有些游客租了大型凉亭,或者预订了更丰富的岸上游览项目,甚至还走出度假村去探索,所以选择很多,总有一款适合你。
我们查看了各个“含餐”餐厅的菜单,发现食物还可以,但有点像自助餐厅的水平,选择也比较简单。
我们很乐意在未来的邮轮之旅中再次停靠这个港口,但希望届时天气炎热(而不是温暖),这样才能尽情享受各种水上设施。
