Sail Date: Feb 2010
Cabin: Deluxe Ocean View with Balcony 2A

Our 14 day round trip cruise from Buenos Aires to Paradise Harbour (with ports of call: Port Stanley, Ushuaia, Puerto Madryn and Montivedeo)was excellent ONLY because of the ports of call.

Before I talk about the ship can I just ask is it too much for a supposed 'luxury cruise line' to get some DECENT COFFEE ON BOARD...across the ship (including the $4.00 coffees at Cova) were universally tasteless and bland.

The motto for Celebrity must be HURRY UP AND WAIT because that's what we did ALL the time...from a hellish tendering scene at the Falkland Islands (up to 5 hours to get off the ship after being told to wait in the Rendez Vous lounge when we were 'absolutely' ready to get off the ship) to the doors for the 8:45 dinner seating seldom being open at 8:45 to being told to disembark the ship when no buses were ready (and port security unimpressed with our standing around) there was no end to the times when we were needlessly waiting for something that was already supposed to have happened.

Cabin Review

Deluxe Ocean View with Balcony 2A

Cabin 2A

8161 - great balcony (in that it's larger than most around it and hard for others to see into it) but not great balcony in that it doesn't get sun (or at least in South America) until LATE in the day because of the way the casual dining alcoves stick out over the ship). Deck 9 got NO sun on our cruise but being lower (even deck 7) or at the front of the ship guaranteed more sun for a greater part of the day.Room is fine...not as much storage as some ships and the 'queen bed' has a big crack in the middle which we hadn't experienced on other ships before.
