The romance kit
Itinerary & shore days. Caribbean routes from Fort Lauderdale mix sea days with ports like St. Maarten, San Juan or Tortola. Pack reef-safe sunscreen, water shoes and a dry bag, plus a cover-up for port towns, and book excursions and specialty dining early.
Smart packing tips. Roll clothes, use packing cubes, and keep documents in one pouch. Magnetic hooks help in a compact cabin on the steel walls, and a power bank keeps phones charged through long port days.
Bodysuits and teddies weigh almost nothing and never wrinkle — the easiest win in your bag for Xcel's Evening Chic nights.
Shop Cruise LingerieThe romance kit (what other lists won't tell you)
Open-flame candles are banned on board, so set the mood with flameless massage oils and battery candles. Cabin walls are thin, so choose a quiet, rechargeable toy from our discreet, app-controlled collection, and add travel-size lube and protection. The full kit is curated in our Honeymoon & Romance edit, or grab the Cruise Travel Essentials bundle.
Romantic things to do on Celebrity Xcel
Claim two loungers in the adults-only Solarium, book a couples' treatment at the spa, and reserve a sunset cocktail on the Magic Carpet. A quiet specialty dinner and a nightcap at the Sunset Bar make an elegant date night. On sea days, take breakfast on the infinite veranda, spend the afternoon in the Solarium, and keep the evening for private time back in the cabin with the lights low.
