We just got off the Beyond on Monday after a 10 day Southern Caribbean cruise. Absolutely fantastic. We stayed in a Porthole Veranda - 7123. It was perfect for us. And yes, you can turn the chairs front to back. 🙂
The shows are really unbelievable - excellent talent. The MDR are very good, I just wish there was more selection. All the MDR's serve the same food except each one has three apps and three entrees that are different each night. I thought there should be more to choose from. I thought all the food was good, but we had the best in Le Petit Chef. Delicious, even better than the Steakhouse. We also ate at the Rooftop grill which was also very good. Drinks were good throughout the ship. It never really felt crowded to us, you just needed to get to the shows early for a seat. I did think the shows at Eden were too late starting at 10:45. And yes, there were pool deck chair hogs and it did not seem like Celebrity staff were doing any sort of monitoring it it. But, I would absolutely book the Beyond again in a minute.
