Overview


Scribblers, pack your pens! Join us for a cozy, creativity-soaked writers’ retreat aboard Celebrity Reflection, sailing November 30–December 4, 2026. Between sunrises at sea and starlit evenings on deck, you’ll enjoy dedicated writing sessions, casual “scribble circles,” and inspiring conversations with fellow word lovers—all while someone else takes care of the meals, the dishes, and the details. Spend your mornings drafting in quiet nooks with ocean views, your afternoons exploring port calls for sensory inspiration, and your evenings unwinding over dessert and story swaps. Whether you’re polishing a novel, starting a memoir, or just giving your creative voice some long-overdue attention, this short sailing is the perfect blend of rest, reflection, and writing momentum.

Day 1 · Sun, Nov 29


Pre-cruise hotel options in Fort Lauderdale

Riverside Hotel
Best for travelers who want charm, walkability, and a local feel. Located right on Las Olas Boulevard, it’s perfect for clients who want to stroll to restaurants, galleries, and riverfront cafés, and experience historic “Old Florida” character rather than a beach resort.

The Westin Fort Lauderdale Beach Resort
Ideal for guests seeking a polished, upscale beachfront stay with full resort amenities. The Westin offers a modern feel, a spa and wellness focus, ocean views, and convenient beach access via a skywalk—ideal for couples or travelers who want comfort, service, and a classic beach-vacation vibe.

B Ocean Resort Fort Lauderdale Beach
Perfect for travelers looking for a fun, energetic beachfront atmosphere. With direct beach access, lively pools, and the famous Wreck Bar mermaid shows, B Ocean tends to appeal to younger travelers, groups, or anyone who wants a more social and playful resort experience.

Quick snapshot:
Riverside is for exploring Las Olas and downtown charm, Westin is for upscale beachfront relaxation, and B Ocean is for lively beachfront fun.
