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.

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.

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

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!

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.

14 day Southern Exotic Celebrity Cruise

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!

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

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.

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.

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

Cons:

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.

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.

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.

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
