Third cruise with Celebrty, standards consistent, Our check in at Southampton was flawless, we parked using ABP right at the ship handed over our bags to the attendant at the car, next time we saw them was outside our cabin door excellent service, disembarkation just as slick.
Silhouette is a lovely ship food consistent high standard, Baccio coffee great and the hard working staff ...
What a holiday!! we have come home after 14 nights on silhouette, for a rest !
The ship is beautiful and lots to do, I thought we might be bored,how wrong was I !
The food was excellent,in dinning room,but we couldn't work out,why the potions got bigger towards the end of the cruise.
We also had dinner at Tuscan grille, on the first night,as they do offers on first night of the cruise, ...
We chose the cruise for the destinations and to celebrate our 48th wedding anniversary,we also had our 29yr old son with us in a balcony cabin.
We were blessed with brilliant sunny weather for the whole cruise which obviously improved our experience.
I would say this was the best crew we have ever encountered on our cruise trips(8 so far).
There were plenty of crew per passenger and very ...
Rather than an essay here's some highlights and the odd lowlight (so 4.5 stars would be a more accurate score).
Note we were booked into a suite so enjoyed some benefits that others might not have. This was our 3rd cruise so we're not exactly experts.
Boarding - faultless. On the ship within 10 mins of checking in.
The ship - crikey it's huge (14 decks - no 13!). Our concerns that it ...
We chose the cruise for the itinerary and Celebrity because we prefer them. We expected cooler, cloudier and less sunny weather but after the first cloudy day at sea we were blessed with clear almost cloudless skies, warm temperatures, no rain and wonderful scenery. Our stateroom was as expected and we had an excellent steward who seemed to second guess our needs. The stateroom was always ...
Celebrity Eclipse
After many cruises with Celebrity I think it’s time to find another cruise line.
With each of our recent cruises the quality of the experience seems to deteriorate just a little more. It is not one big thing that has brought about this change in our attitude but the accumulation of tiny things.
The dining room staff not quite as well trained, on this recent Norway trip ...
We have always wanted to see the Norwegian Fjords and they exceeded our expectations- absolutely breathtakingly beautiful! The weather was magnificent everyday, couldn’t have asked for more beautiful conditions! 4 of us traveling together, me and my partner, my mom and her best friend. We flew to Dublin 3 days early to enjoy the city. We had been before and loved it. It never disappoints. ...
We wanted to see Ireland and Norway and thought the cruise was a fabulous way to do both as it departed from Dublin!
The ship is beautiful and the crew were very pleasant and provided quick service! We were treated so well!
Ray and his team were excellent servers at the main restaurant. They were fun, fast, efficient and met all our needs. Great job! Pleasure!
The food choices in the ...
For this cruise the Silhouette was chartered by the Australian company that has many times organised similar cruises “down under” and it was the first time, I believe, that they had ventured into British and European waters. This cruise featured Katherine Jenkins, Alfie Boe and Wynne Evans (of “Go Compare” fame) as well as the Celtic Tenors and many of Australia’s talents, onboard. We saw the ...
We chose this cruise primarily for the itinerary, but also because we love Celebrity. We were on the Silhouette last year, and we knew we'd get a similar experience.
The ship is what we consider the perfect size. Not massive like the Royal Caribbean ships, but big enough to have every amenity you need.
The selection of speciality dining restaurants are fantastic, and the Opus Dining ...
