Celebrity Senior Cruises Reviews

We are not large ship cruisers and chose Equinox for a family vacation as the idea of the RCCL or NCL big ships was cringe-worthy and we wanted a more upscale experience. We needed a kids club but were not interested in a kid centric cruise line. Ship's public spaces are well done and have an upscale feel. It was very clean. We booked all of the family in Aqua Class and that was truly the ...

Before I even start, it bugs me so much seeing people complain about the smallest things. You get what you make out of your trip. These cruise ships try to cater to the bigger audience, not just YOU specifically. Complaining about things just because you've been on 100 cruises and this one didn't live up to your favorite trip. The cruise as a whole was good. We stayed in an ocean view ...

This is going to be an exhaustive review with what would seem to be primarily pointing out the negatives, but overall, we did enjoy our first Celebrity cruise with Summit. For those that have never sailed this ship or with the company itself, I am going to provide as many helpful viewpoints as I can. To begin with, I am an experienced cruiser. Have done many cruises with Royal Caribbean and ...

Chose this cruise to celebrate our 50th Wedding Anniversary in June. Big mistake. We normally do not cruise in the summer because of the heat and because of there being too many kids onboard. Our last 3 cruises have been on Edge, Apex and Beyond which are all superb ships but unfortunately during the summer are all in Europe. The Equinox was very dated, crowded and disappointing. There ...

We enjoyed this as a family but helped to have adjoining room for two teens. We had inside state rooms but next time would choose a balcony for after excursion. Not all ports all day so that was a bummer and limited on what you can do at port. Space inside cabin ok but small. Kids thought pool too small for amount of people. Did not use pool in solarium because way too hot overall. Gym ok ...

The experience was average. The food is good in the main dining room with good service. But the food in the buffet is average at best ( and for a medium high cruise line this is disappointing ). The price of the additional packages are excessive. Imagine you are on a 8 day cruise ( 7 days effectively as the last day finished at 6 am ), paying GBP 72 for a classic drink package ( effectively ...

This was our first Celebrity cruise and was chosen to accommodate other companions’ time issues and by virtue of an interesting itinerary. First some good things: Main dining dinners were all good and service there was good. Vast majority of staff were very friendly and accommodating. Our party included one six-year-old and the ship had a great “camp at sea” program run by an exceptional crew ...

Embarkation - Celebrity Silhouette embarkation was on a Saturday. We stayed overnight in a local hotel, very close to the terminal. A word of warning to anyone walking with their cases: the road down to the terminal is not a smooth journey, with broken pavements, rough surfaces and few lowered kerbs. However, once we arrived at the terminal the process could not have been more straightforward. ...

I took this cruise to celebrate my retirement! Overall it was great. It is a beautiful ship, and not too big or small for my taste. The dining room is clearly experiencing some struggle with the price of food and how to keep guests happy. I did feel there were less choices (especially for those who dislike fish/seafood) available. Gone was the roast beef, beef wellington (replaced with a spinach ...

I should start by saying I am not a cruise expert. I have only been on one other cruise (princess) in my adult life. I do travel frequently, I just usually don’t do cruises. My mom, who I traveled with, goes on a cruise almost every other month. She has been on quite a few celebrity cruises. The disappointment started a couple of days before we left for our cruise when we found out the cruise was ...
