Let me show you Celebrity Beyond deck by deck, although I should state that at the time of writing this post Celebrity Beyond has yet to be finally revealed in all her glory but these are the deck plans currently available. So whilst I think there are unlikely to be any major changes to these, I recommend checking Celebrity Cruises website for the most up to date deck plans. Once I’ve been onboard, I will upload current photos.

Celebrity Beyond Deck 17 - The Retreat SUndeck

This is probably the most photogenic, and therefore most photographed, of all decks on Celebrity Beyond featuring as it does the suite-exclusive Retreat Sundeck. The Retreat is a 3-deck-high luxurious area for Suite guests - or in the words of Celebrity Cruises “A place so exclusive it has no address”.

The Retreat Sundeck is the top deck of the three storey Retreat and is located forward on deck 17. It is an outdoor area including The Retreat Bar, the circular Retreat Pool, two cantilevered plunge pools, premium deck furniture (deckchairs, padded loungers, cushioned sofas, daybeds etc.), cabanas available for rent and of course outdoor showers and restrooms. See my separate posts to find out more about this elite area coming soon.
