Celebrity Cruises Reviews

The food was fantastic in the main dining room (we never did specialty dining), the entertainment was a little above average, and we loved the silent disco and the moon party out by the pool deck. We were disappointed that the watercolor classes were cancelled because the artist never got on the ship. Also, I made a glass flower with the glass show, but it was cracked when it was delivered to me after cooling and they didn't do anything when I showed them- didnt let me redo it or refund me. The activity group games we're just okay. Although I love the majority rules game, the game host rushed everybody giving only 7 Seconds to answer right down your answer and turn in your piece of paper at the front which caused the dangerous situation with people running into each other rushing to the table at the last second - the game is much more fun when you have time to ponder your answers. Our waiters were wonderful and accommodating, and our room steward was great even though we rarely saw her - she works so hard to keep our room clean and provided buckets of ice and chocolates on our pillows. There were only a few kids on the ship which is nice when you are traveling without yours. There are very few activities on celebrity other than a couple of dance lessons, listening to small venues of music, the evening shows, the one silent disco, one 80s evening party, one moon party, and relaxing near the pool. Because I went with my best friend, I had a great time, even though I would have preferred more activities. Overall, Celebrity is my favorite now and I highly recommend it.

Mixed bag. Adam at Brazil Adventure Travel (recommended by Cindy) was FABULOUS for our trip to Iguazu Falls; he went above and beyond for us. Celebrity/Infinity wasn't so great; it was a tired ship with engine problems that caused us to miss one port entirely and messed up our schedule for other ports. It is a decent cruise line, but not up to the luxury standards we have come to expect on previous trips with Oceania.

We really enjoy Celebrity. Great service, food and ambiance.

Service was not to Celebrity standards. If this had been my first Celebrity cruise, there never would have been another. The buffet was constantly out of items and the service in Blu was poor to put it kindly. We were not the only guests unhappy with the service.

Wonderful! The ports were very diverse and the itinerary was well-paced. The side trip to visit the Taj Mahal was impeccably well organized. Plus, the service on board was amazing.

First time cruise on Celebrity. Booked this cruise rather than flying from New Zealand, following our road trip around the South Island. Our son lives in Perth and we had wanted to revisit New Zealand on our way there. We saw the cruise advertised and agreed it would be a relaxing way to get to Perth. We had visited all but one of the itinerary destinations, so shore trips were of no great interest to us. However, we did go ashore and did our own thing in all the ports. I would say immediately, the Solstice is the nicest cruise ship we have sailed on. Our balcony cabin was extremely well designed, lots of storage space. The bathroom too was a decent size with a excellent shower. Our only minor complaint was a creaking balcony door when seas were rough, we jammed a cloth between the door and frame to take up the play and make it quieter. Whilst there were nearly 3000 passengers on the ship you wouldn't think so, in general you could find somewhere to relax. Food and entertainment were to expectations and to a similar standard of most cruise ships. The ships PA system could be improved, hard to understand not at all clear. As I had read in other surveys, they are continually trying to sell you specialty restaurant upgrades or drink packages or sticking cameras in your faces. No! doesn't seem to be understood! Would we sail Celebrate again, yes but, think they should ease back on privileged elite passengers a little. A little too much class distinction at times.�

The best of times

I am a long time Celebrity cruiser (captain's club elite plus), and many on the Eclipse. This particular cruise was probably the best, and not because of being in the sunny, warm Caribbean in the winter, but because the food, service, and entertainment was excellent. The dining room waiters, assistant waiters, and somaliers, are well trained and very professional. Little things such as pushing your seat in when you sit down, giving you your napkin, serving the ladies first, refilling water glasses without asking, pouring your wine when your glass is empty, and giving recommendation on what to order, is what separates Celebrity from the main stream cruise lines. The Beyond the Podium guest speakers were very interesting and they spoke on all 5 sea days. My thanks to my travel agent Sylvia Hopper for putting together this cruise.

Excellent experience. Best vacation EVER!

not as good as expected.

Seeing Antarctica is was a bucket list item and it met all my expectations. Penguins are amazing and the ship's crew was great.

We had a wonderful Caribbean cruise on Celebrity Reflection. Reflection is a beautiful ship. Food and service were amazing. Music at the pool and bars could be improved but overall we had a great time.

Great staff - great food - great service. We did not want it to end.

Staff is wonderful& efficient,
