We were very disappointed that our latest cruise on Silhouette did not come close to our expectations, especially as our travel agent had personally recommended Celebrity. Our previous cruise on their Eclipse vessel was a much more enjoyable event. I had recently suffered the loss of my mother, close to our holiday date, and was in need of a refreshing break to assist the grieving process.
The ...
Made reservation while on board previous cruise which was excellent. Just a social and relaxing extension to previous cruise. The transition from one cruise to the other was excellent with Celebrity providing shore passes to all the repeat guests. Living close to Southampton this allowed me to go home, pickup lighter weight clothes etc. for transition to Meditteranean. Had to change staterooms as ...
Liked the itinerary and was recommended to sail celebrity by a family member. We wernt disappointed. The food was brilliant wherever you ate we loved the main Dining room in an evening with perfect food and service. We also ate in Le Petite chef which was amazing and we would recommend the experience to everyone. All the staff were amazing and couldn't do enough for you. The entertainment was ...
I have been on The Eclipse several times on its Western Mediterranean itinerary but with it swapping to Dublin and the Silhouette's inclusion of Corsica and Barcelona I was tempted. I wished to take my younger daughter with me so she could experience a luxurious, yet restful holiday ..... and that was achieved in spades !
Embarkation was the quickest ever. We had stayed the night before at the ...
This was our first Celebrity experience. We chose it because after many years cruising with P&O Cruises, we felt their standards were on the slide and we wanted a better experience. We had been told that Celebrity was "a cut above" P&O. Was it? Well, the jury is still out. The ship was beautiful, the crew were excellent, the food was definitely "a cut above" but on the other hand the price ...
We have travelled with Celebrity for years now though this was the first time on this ship. Embarkation was perfect, very quick, no hassle. Disembarkation was the same, we chose to take our own luggage off the ship so were able to leave at 6:30am. It was very quiet, very few people doing the same so we just walked off with our luggage, got into our car which was parked across the street in the ...
We chose this ship because we had been so pleased with our previous cruises on Eclipse and were told that Silhouette was near enough identical to her. We were not disappointed, the ship was just as we imagined and met our every expectation.
We booked this cruise whilst on board Eclipse last year and chose a Suite because of all the perks that came with it.
It gave us Luminae as our ...
This was our firs cruise experience so this review will help you if you've never cruised before.
We got married in Rome so started the cruise from there for a 10 day trip around the med finishing in Barcelona.
Obviously not cruising before we had no idea what to expect! Embarkation was smooth, we were greeted by smiling staff offering sparkling wine(?) and we were overwhelmed by the ship in ...
We chose the cruise because of the itinerary but also because we prefer to cruise with Celebrity.
This was our first ime on a Millenium Class ship having sailed on Solstice class many times.
The public rooms and other areas on Constellation were beautifully maintained and had been refurbished recently re carpets soft furnishings etc.
Our cabin was comfortable, spacious, had new carpets, ...
Hi, Overall the cruise was good but I'm second guessing the overall value. The Luminae restaurant was great as was their staff. Our Butler (Sebastian) and Stateroom Attendant (Tumin) were great. The Shore Excursions team was not the best. We booked the Portofino, Rapallo, & St. Margherita excursion and quite simply it has to rank up there with one of the worst excursions ever. There were 7 ...
