Yes, yes, a thousand times yes.
If you show up at the port with just your driver’s license and good vibes, you’re gonna be very tan and very sad… from the parking lot. Make sure your passport is valid through at least June 7, 2026.
Yep! This isn’t an all-expenses-paid trip (unless your name is Taylor Swift and you’re surprising Tony, in which case—welcome!). Everyone’s in charge of booking their own cabin through Celebrity Cruises. Here’s the booking link.
Celebrity Cruises is currently offering public rates that are lower than any available group pricing, so we strongly recommend booking directly through their website:
Here’s the tropical tour:
Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic – waterfalls, beaches, rum (in no particular order)
St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands – turquoise waters, snorkeling, shopping
St. Maarten – two countries, one island, endless fun (and maybe some duty-free mischief)
And don’t forget our glorious sea days, where your only job is to lounge, eat, and not spill your drink.
Nope—this is a grown-ups-only getaway. Think cocktails by the pool, late-night karaoke, and zero risk of stepping on Legos.
The cruise line may allow kids, but our group events and vibe are 100% adults-only.
So leave the sippy cups at home and bring your champagne flutes instead.
Sure is! Your cruise fare includes all the food you can responsibly fit into your body, from breakfast buffets to late-night pizza.
Included: Main dining room, buffet, snacks, and more.
Not included: Fancy restaurants, alcohol, and emotional eating from the gelato counter 3x a day (no judgment).
Basic drinks (water, coffee, tea, juice) are free.
Boozy or bougie drinks (alcohol, lattes, fresh juice) = extra.
You can buy a drink package if you’re planning to sip your way through the Caribbean (aka: “the Tony approach”).
By day: Swimsuits, coverups, flip-flops—live your best cruise life.
By night: Think “vacation date night” meets “Instagram-worthy.”
There’s usually 1–2 fancier dinners if you want to break out your best cruise-cocktail lewk.
Glad you asked, because Tony’s already overthinking it:
Bonus points if you’re able to convince Taylor Swift into joining us!
If you’re booking with someone, awesome—you two are roomies.
Flying solo? Let us know in the RSVP form and we’ll try to match you with someone equally awesome, but only if you don’t want to live the solo cabin dream.
We’ll plan one or two fun optional outings—think beach day, scuba diving/ snorkeling, or some sort of “mildly active but still fabulous” adventure.
You’re also welcome to do your own thing. No pressure. (Except maybe a little peer pressure if there’s a pop up Taylor Swift concert.)
Don’t worry, fellow introverts! You’re not signing up for summer camp.
This is your vacation—if group outings aren’t your thing, feel free to explore solo, chill on the ship, or do whatever makes you happiest.
We’ll share details for the optional excursions ahead of time, and you can join if you want… or not. No hard feelings, no guilt, no FOMO (okay, maybe a little FOMO, but that’s on you 😎).
We’ll post all big news here on the News page (theme nights, room block info, etc.). Also, don’t feel like adding another thing to your to-do list? You can sign up to receive email updates, which will include everything posted to the News page.
Otherwise, just check back here every now and then like it’s your favorite blog.
Easy—head over to the Contact Us page and shoot us a message (or fill out the form over there –>).
You’ll most likely hear back from Tony (because let’s be honest, Sam is terrible at responding—we love him, but we know).
If it’s something urgent, weird, random, or you just need a gentle nudge for Sam to reply message Tony directly and he’ll light a fire under him.
