Sail Date: Aug 2014

Just got back from a 2 week Med cruise on the Celebrity Eclipse, so reluctantly adjusting to making my own bed and meals again etc.

Having read some of the recent reviews I was a bit concerned that standards may have slipped (we last sailed on the Eclipse 2 years ago, having previously cruised with P&O and Royal Caribbean) but, to be honest, we had a fabulous 2 weeks and were thoroughly spoilt. My only real criticism would be that Celebrity do need to add some imagination and variety to their itineraries, as the previous cruise had exactly the same ports as this one and their Med cruise on the Eclipse next year is also a repeat of this itinerary. I like a Med cruise and I'd love to sail with Eclipse again - but don't want to just keep repeating the same ports. I know I could sail from a European port but one of the main advantages of cruising to me is avoiding the stress and hassle of airports.

I've detailed below our views on the cruise:-

Cabin Review

Great cabin - very spacious and with loads of storage space. Handily situated for the lifts, the pools and the restaurants' and also the Ocean View Café. Some noise at times from the Ocean View Café, but not too bad. Only negative is that cabin is underneath the overhang from deck 14 so the balcony is shaded for much of the time (only really got any sun at sunrise and sunset). Would happily book it again though
