Ship out of drydock but not quite finished

May

Pros: The ship looks great

Cons: All work was not completed when we started the trip

Recommended: Yes

We enjoyed the Eclipse and would have enjoyed it more if all work had been completed. The staff and dining experience was great. The one complaint that we had was that the Celebrity excursions both on the ship and on shore did not always follow what was promised. We had less problems with the Viatour tours that we did

GF Cruise

March

Pros: classic beverage package covered all drinks

Cons: lugagge valet service didn't work through app. Use the paper form

Recommended: No

Great mobility inside the ship. Multiple and convenient locations for bars. State room and public areas well !maintained. Highly recommend galley tour on sea days

Great cruise

December

Recommended: Yes

Very clean and some updates. Very comfortable beds. Great crew.

Trip to ABC islands

November

Pros: Room steward very attentive, Blu restaurant staff outstanding, Martini Bar staff very attentive .

Cons: Wheelchair assistance to Board the ship very unorganized

Once on the ship the experience was very good - however, when you need wheelchair assistance to board - this service has been subcontracted and is very unorganized and some attendants were very rude.

c. eclipse 2024

Celebrity Eclipse Sailing September 2024

September

Pros: Itinerary

Cons: Ship needs refurbishment and will get it in 11/23.

Recommended: Yes

It's 9/24. Please don't tell me the ship we were just on has already been refurbished! We'd been on Eclipse before, and our Concierge Veranda room was smaller than we remembered.The bathroom sink faucet was installed backwards, which made it virtually impossible to get cold water. And you really need more than 4 small drawers for clothes, especially in cooler climates! Food choices in Main Dining Room were such that we elected to go to the buffet the two nights we were on ship. Their food was fine. Never saw the entertainment and was aboard ship for the only port. We had a medical emergency on ship which made it necessary to disembark in Halifax, Nova Scotia. We hit the emergency button on the phone three times to summon someone, but no one ever answered. Walked to infirmary and had difficulty getting in. Once in, the Infirmary staff attention was excellent. Although the Guest Relations staff was helpful, the chaos during disembarkation was unnerving for someone who needed to follow their spouse to a hospital. Celebrity's Care Team, on the other hand, was excellent with follow-up.

Great time

July

Pros: Great food. Excellent staff. Ship is well maintained and very clean.

Cons:

Recommended: Yes

My wife and I had an amazing time on the Eclipse. The staff, especially Leondro, was exceptional. We will certainly cruise with Celebrity again. We have already booked our next cruise.

D D J J cruise

June

Pros: Excellent staff, crew, entertainment, and food.

Cons: In Aqua class dining in Blu restaurant there is open seating which sometimes has a wait of 20 minutes.

Recommended: Yes

Celebrity may well be the best cruise line of the current times.

Aqua class was terrific

June

Pros: Food, spa and staff was super friendly

Cons: Little old

Recommended: Yes

Ship was overall wonderful. Staff and food are top notch. Some parts of are dated. Stuff to do from 9am til 10pm

Old boat, old passengers

June

Pros: Friendly staff

Cons: Not much to do except drink

Recommended: No

The ship was okay and the destination was beautiful. Wish the voyage was only 1 1/2 days to island and one day back, exploring the island was fast and furious due to 2 1/2 day window. My 40 years old children commented on aging passengers but they all seemed fine at the bars.

Wonderful ship, food, and service

June

Pros: Variety of very good foods, very friendly staff

Cons: Many staff members were difficult to understand, constant sales pitches

Recommended: Yes

This was my 3rd cruise to Bermuda and my first Celebrity cruise. It was wonderful! The ship was beautiful and was consistently cleaned, there were spaces for all kinds of activities and NO activity (I loved the covered, quiet pool area), the food was delicious with a wide variety, especially vegetarian options (but some of the soups were watery). Drinks were expensive, the next time I'd likely get the drink package. I'd love more days on Bermuda, perhaps a 10 day cruise would be better.

South America

April

Pros: Murano

Cons: weather

Recommended: Yes

Just got off the Eclipse. The ship is older but still nice. My husband likes something to do each day so he was worried about keeping busy. But he found daily activities to keep him busy. The spa and Persian Garden were great! My hot stone massage was amazing. Dinner at Murano was the best I have ever had on a cruise. Food was superior and the Staff Ioan and Medicris (not spelled properly) we so attentive. We did eat at Tuscan Grill and it was an off night. Staff was no where to be found. Steaks were mediocre. I was really disappointed. We ate at Blu most of the other times. We tried eating at the Food Frenzy (Buffet) but though the food looked good....was very bland and tasteless. So back to Blu we went. Service was great and food was much better than the other choices except Murano....it was still the best overall. Our cabin steward was very attentive. The shows were 4 out of 5 stars. Took the glass class and made a vase. The lawn on the ship needs removed and replaced with actual usable space. We played bags games there several times. Never saw anyone else using it. Drinks were great and the wine sommelier was very helpful...though some nights very busy and we had to wait.

Antartica

February

Pros: You can see South America/Antartica on a regular cruise, and not the high price of an Explorer Cruise

Cons: None

Recommended: Yes

It's a chance of a lifetime to actually be in Antartica, if you never thought you could. Celebrity has put together a great trip for 14 days. Icebergs, penguin's, beautiful excursions to the cities and countryside. Start your vacation early and tour Buenos Aires. Then fly over to see Iguazu Falls. Bring clothes for the warmer days, and don't forget winter clothes for Antartica.

Lovely experience

September

Pros: Outstanding service, food, activities and ambience.

Cons: We believe that the charges for Wi-Fi are a little too high

Recommended: Yes

The eclipse is a nice size and well taken care of in all aspects. It has comfortable lounges that accommodate our “on board living” experience, and we love celebrity. Going on the Edge in October,2021

30th anniversary journey

December

Pros: Great dining in Luminae

Cons: Suites on 12th deck incur noise from the Oceanview Cafe above beginning at 6:00 AM throughout the day and even into the night as preparations fro the next day begin. These should not be sold as premium cabins.

Recommended: Yes

The officer in charge of our suite deck and the concierge for suite guests did a great job of finding some solutions and gave us very special attention.

Hawaiian Cruise on Eclipse

October

Pros: A lovely ship . All the crew is friendly and are constantly working to clean the ship. Interesting art work. Excellent dining room experience as well as the buffet offering a variety of food.

Cons: None

It was our first experience on Eclipse and we thoroughly enjoyed the ship from the lovely dining room to the library to the Lou gets.

Wonderful experience

September

Pros: The ship-amazingly beautiful, comfortable, efficient & helpful & friendly staff especially, Jenny, housekeeping, Joey wait staff and Felipe store clerk.

Cons:

Recommended: Yes

We were awed by the efficiency of check in and check out. The crew were fast, friendly and helpful. The shows were of excellent quality and were all most enjoyable. The talk from Capt. Leo was interesting and informative and the talk about Faberge was top notch.

Alaskan Cruise

August

Pros: Awesome staff, beautiful ship, great entertainment and delicous food!

Cons: The muster drill could be better organized.

Recommended: Yes

We had a great time on our Alaskan cruise on the Celebrity Eclipse to celebrate my parents' 50th wedding anniversary. The staff made the experience extra special, particularly our room stewards, Wardan and Dewa, Martin, the maitre d at Blu, and Lastra and Zenass, our head waiter and assistant waiter at Blu. It'll be hard to go back to reality after being spoiled for the past week! Thank you to everyone!!

What an Experience

June

Pros: Lots of activities

Cons: too many rude people

Recommended: Yes

the buffet was not set up very well, just all over the place and watching people walk into each other never stopped at any meal. The staff were very friendly and helpful all the time. Would not recommend for a couple that want the peace and quite of the sound of the ocean, to many screaming kids. The best time was sitting on your own deck and being able to hear everything around you. The shows were so loud that people with hearing aid,s had left the theater

Alaska Eclipse

June

Pros: Well appointed and good ports of call

Cons:

Recommended: Yes

Well appointed ship with enough ports to see great part of Alaska

A warning toot on the ships horn when leaving port before the big blasts that scared the majority of the people on the upper bow decks would be appreciated.

The eclipse experience

December

Cons: There was no way to eat an earlier dinner than the 6 pm and sometimes that is needed.

Recommended: Yes

Everything was grand our server in the dinning room was the best ever. Lielah. Cabin steward was also very good in gettigeverthiwe needed in a timely way.

Best Transatlantic Crossing EVER!

November

Pros: Entertainment

Cons: n/a

Recommended: Yes

Eddy Jenkins, Giuseppe, Brittany, & Lauren were a well-oiled machine, running around the ship as if they had doubles of themselves. The non-stop entertainment and activities were tops of any of the prior 20+ cruises we've been on. It's hard to imagine and more cohesive group of fine, young folks!

Excellent cruise

March

Pros: great itinerary, comfortable ship, on-board activities, helpful crew

Cons: No cons

Recommended: Yes

Excellent cruise. The entertainment and activities were varied and good. The itinerary was excellent. The crew made sure everything ran smoothly. Ship officers were very visible and friendly. We enjoyed every minute of the cruise.

A wonderful 2 weeks

February

Pros: Good food,fun people, wonderful service

Cons: Entertainment was not very good-one night out of 2 weeks was good

Recommended: Yes

Rooms were very small and not enough storage for clothes

six day trip

January

Pros: Ship - Food - Entertainment - Service all excellent

Cons: Six day too short - Punta Maya ???

Recommended: Yes

Good trip and a good "value"

Celebrity cruise

January

Pros: Service , food, cleanliness, friendly staff, layout of ship

Cons:

Recommended: Yes

We really enjoyed our cruise and would definitely go again and again

Great ship

November

Pros: Very friendly staff who go out of their way to make your cruise the best ever. They really try hard to be perfect and they come close.

Cons: Only problem was being in Barbados on a Sunday when nothing was open. We would have preferred having a jazz group playing in the Ensemble Lounge.

Recommended: Yes

The ship was well maintained and the service was great. We enjoyed the Select Dining option which allowed us to go to dinner whenever we wanted rather than being locked into a specific time. We never had a problem being seated promptly. We enjoyed sharing tables and meeting a number of interesting people from all over the world. The Beyond the Podium program that Celebrity provides are always interesting and informative. We enjoyed hearing from a mystery writer, Cathy Ace, who was funny and very entertaining. Dr. Wayne, who spoke on the geology and weather of the Caribbean, was also informative and interesting. The Apple classes were also excellent and very well attended. We look for interesting things to do that may not be on the ship's list of things to see. Many of the islands have small local museums which give an insight into the history of the particular island. Visitors should look for these instead of spending all of their time shopping.

Eclipse to Iceland

May

Pros: Beautiful ship. Excellent onboard service. Very good entertainment. Murano specialty restaurant deserves a Michelin rating.

Cons:

Recommended: Yes

Celebrity is a class cruise line. To be frank, more suitable for adults than children. Entertainment is varied and high quality, especially the onboard team which put on several major performances.

Fabulous transatlantic cruise

14 day Southern Exotic Celebrity Cruise

March

Pros: The Celebrity Cruise team all through this cruise was fantastic. Helping out with every desire and need that I could imagine.

Cons: I had to get off the ship at the end of the 14 days.

Recommended: Yes

The Aqua class room fulfilled every thing that it advertised. The Blu restaurant was so good that our group never went anywhere else to eat for breakfast and dinner even though other options were offered at reduced rates throughout the cruise. The headwaiter took care of us that good! AMAZING!

Our cruise to the Eastern Caribbean

March

Pros: Clean ship, friendly crew, excellent service, good food, warm weather, clam seas, friendly breezes, an excellent time!

Cons: We can't think of anything we'd consider a "con".

Recommended: Yes

Eclipse Review

February

Pros: great ship, easy to get around, comfortable, good service

Cons: not enough games or music during the day, particularly by the pool

Recommended: Yes

missed having a piano bar; enjoyed the Sky lounge & the solarium but would have liked some music there (even recorded music would have been ok); there should be a sign to tell people to remove their towels when leaving the pool area; prices for shore excursions have gotten too expensive

Cruising the Caribbean

February

Pros: Nice ship, good entertainment, great staff (especially in dining room), great room location. Ports were good, except, two days in Curacao was not needed for us. Would have liked another port like St. Maarten.

Cons: Food in dining room was okay. Meat and chicken dishes were good, but the fish selection wasn't that great for me.

Recommended: Yes

Celebrity Eclipse

February

Pros: Friendly helpful staff, plenty of activities to keep busy if you wanted to do that.

Cons: Some of the Theater entertainment was not very impressive. Staff performers very talented but choice of shows they did were disappointing.

Recommended: Yes

Cruise Rating

February

Pros: Overall experience was great. Staff, food, entertainment, Tours were second to none.

Cons: Receiving luggage at end of cruise was time consuming. Preferred when luggage was sectioned in groups.

Recommended: Yes

Overall experience was wonderfull.

Celebrity cruise

February

Pros: Very good service in staterooms and dining rooms. Have had better food choices in previous years on celebrity cruises

Cons: Service in dining room was very good. However. Did not enjoy food choices especially the main courses.

Recommended: Yes

Thru the yearsI have always enjoyed my cruises on Celebrity however by allowing casual dressing you have lost class. I like classy and you have lost it

Christmas Cruise 2015

December

Pros: Beautiful ship, hardworking crew, lots of activities.

Cons: Good food but not great. Same thing for the live entertainment.

Recommended: Yes

The food in the Ocean View Café never changed from day to day. It was even the same for lunch as it was for dinner. Some variety would have been nice. The dinners in the dining room at night were good, but I have had better on other cruise ships. There could have been a larger variety of shopping on board. There was very little logo wear to purchase and all of the t-shirts and sweatshirts were from destinations that the cruise did not go to. The ship had a live glass-blowing show put on by Corning Glassworks. It was very impressive to watch and the pieces that they made were auctioned off for charity at the end of the cruise.

First time on this vessel

December

Pros: Environment, Restaurants and ship

Cons: Entertainment

Recommended: Yes

Eclipse

November

Pros: Good time

Cons: Avoid Bistro on 5, very bad service. 2 hours for 3 item lunch!

Recommended: Yes

Great time, crew very good.

Transatlantic

November

This cruise was very good. Service excellent and the food served was above average for a cruise ship

mediteranian cruise

September

Pros:

Cons:

Recommended: Yes

excellent services at any area at any time we were very happy

Celebrity Eclipse

April

Pros: Above average Celebrity ship and crew, food and stops. No health problems.

Cons: none

Recommended: Yes

Rated the best large cruise ship in 2014. There was nothing to dispute that award.

Somethings good/something not so much

May

Pros: Nicely designed ship. Some nice touches all around. The crew was from over 70 different countries. For some reason this mix made for a very warm , caring crew.

Cons: The ship would not allow passengers to carry on two bottles of wine, like many carriers do. We visited Spain and Portugal. Both are producers of excellent wines, but not for these ships I would have liked to be able to visit a nice bar similiar to the the ones on Princess..

Recommended: Yes

Nice friendly crew. Beautiful ships, spotlessly clean. Hard to find anything wrong with the company.

Tradewinds Repositioning Cruise

April

Pros: Beautiful and clean ship, well manned and driven by an excellent captain

Cons: Gambling tight

Recommended: Yes

My husband and I were very happy with our cruise, the staff was very helpful, especially Violeta, the Concierge, and Sophia, in Customer Relations, with their invaluable help so we could continue our journey after departing the ship in Southhampton, England.

Transatlantic Cruise

April

Pros: Loved the dining experience, staff was fantastic throughout. Ship was kept very clean.

Cons: Daytime activities were boring.

Recommended: Yes

My wife and I enjoy the casino, however, after several days of only losing, we were bored. The cruise lines should increase the percentages somewhat so passengers feel they can play longer. We were on a transatlantic cruise with nothing to do. The daytime activities were minimum and it was too cold to use the pool. Bingo was set at $39, which is too high, so hardly anyone went. They had to cancel several days because no one showed up.

Amazing Cruise

April

Pros: Great staff - very personable, helpful, efficient.

Cons:

Recommended: Yes

Super Entertainment Director - tireless and talented. Different show every night (most very good). The staff for dining & room steward were super efficient. Staff for other services very friendly relaxed & efficient. When I heard the number of staff I was amazed - it felt like twice that number handling everything so efficiently.

Magical Eclipse

April

Pros: Beautiful ship fantastic ports of call

Cons: Weather, nothing the cruise line can control

Recommended: Yes

Lovely ship, great crew, Chef Paul was fantastic and fellow passengers a delight. Entertainment director was entertainment in and of herself. Thank you for a great first transatlantic experience.

Trans-Atlantic Cruise, West to East

April

Pros:

Cons:

Recommended: Yes

The Celebrity Eclipse was clean, good repair, lots of things to do, great food, wonderful staff. We did not attend any of the evening shows - by then we were too tired after participating in the daytime activities!

Celebrity Eclipse Vacation

February

Pros: The entire staff cordial, professional, friendly mannered ways, every time, every day.

Cons: Dinner food was good but was not up to the standards of all else onboard

Recommended: Yes

We enjoyed the Canyon Ranch Spa, greatly.

Great ship and great ports

February

Pros: Loved this ship. Easy to navigate. Cabins well designed even with drawers and a bathroom nightlight!

Cons: Only one of fourteen nights did we find the entertainment not superb. Entrees on the menu were a little repetitive but all good food.

Recommended: Yes

Liked it so much we may do it again in 2017!

Hospice Cruise, February 2015

February

Pros: smooth.

Cons: Some entertainment was poor

Recommended: Yes

See ratings

Great Cruise

February

Pros: Wonderful ship. Great service from the crew. Enjoyed the entertainment.

Cons: Aqua Spa Cafe is not good

Recommended: Yes

This was our fifth Celebrity cruise. Enjoyed this ship so much. So many details have been incorporated into the cabin layouts from drawers in the bathroom and dresser to a night light in the bathroom. Entertainment was super except for one comedian during the first part of the cruise. Wonderful ports. Liked this cruise and the ports of call so much that we are considering booking the same cruise again.

My travel agency was great

February

Pros: Class act. The 3 get togethers were excellent. $25 gift certificate was greatly appreciated.

Cons:

Recommended: No

Exotic Southern Caribbean .... wonderful cruise

February

Pros: Great Professionals, Top Notch Entertainment, Great Food :-)

Cons: None!

Recommended: Yes

We thoroughly enjoyed this cruise. Wow! The experience on the Eclipse was fantastic. Also, the tours booked through Celebrity were very good - with one exception that was made good by Celebrity with a partial refund back to us for our disappointment in one tour suggested by them. Sure that will change! All in all, it was TERRIFIC.

Food and service can't be beat!

December

Pros: food is much better than comparable cruise lines

Cons: limited itineraries

Recommended: Yes

I'd book every cruise with Celebrity if only they went everywhere I want to go! The food is a cut above other mid-priced lines, the service is impeccable, and the cabins are roomy (we pay the little bit extra for the Concierge class, which also gives us priority boarding so no long lines). And they greet you with a glass of champagne when you board! What could be a better way to start a vacation? :-) The review process required that I 'score' everything but I can't really comment on the onboard entertainment or activities because we spent our days snorkeling, swimming and sightseeing (not to mention rum tasting), so we were fast asleep shortly after dinner each night.

Caribbean anniversary cruise

December

Pros: Beautiful ship. Very clean and well maintained. Crew was exceptional.

Cons: Some schedule concerns with dinner and shows and programs

Recommended: Yes

The cruise was relaxing as well as interesting in the ports of call. We enjoyed meeting so many well traveled people and learning about their experiences. But - it's always nice to get back to the good ol' USA and to appreciate even more the life we can live here.

Iceland and Norweigan Fjords

July

Pros: Great ports, good tours, helpful staff, and great lectures.

Cons: The weather was cold and wet and because the ship was full, there were not enough comfortable places in public areas for sitting without having to buy a drink. Even buying a drink spaces were very limited. If you did not get to the theater 15 minutes early, the popular shows filled completely up as there were not enough seats for a full ship.

Recommended: Yes

Many of the problems would have been avoided if the ship was not full. Most things were handled well with so many people but the weather caused the flaws to show with indoor public areas too small for a small ship.

Excellent Glimpse of the Baltic

June

Pros: Wonderful ship and crew. Nice education at Ports.

Cons: Just a glimpse...never enough time to really explore.

Recommended: No

Everything was great!!!!!!!

March

Pros: Everything was done right, I was as impressed as I was in 1968 when I first experienced cruising.

Cons: Everyone loved the entertainment giving standing ovations after every show, I would have liked more than one comedy show.

Recommended: No
