We've previously had nothing but great experiences on our prior two cruises with Celebrity. So, we were excited for an opportunity to visit the Canary Islands, Morocco, and Cadiz onboard the Celebrity Infinity. We went in with the understanding that Infinity is older than the other ships we've cruised on with Celebrity. However, I was not prepared for our stateroom experience that was literally ...
As title took 2 1/2 hours to get though customs, and this is not the first time, so I will never cruise on any ship from Barcelona again. Going the other way trying to get out of Barcelona wasn't much better only took 1 1/2 hours so be carful. The ship great I like that size of ship 2500 / 3500 people is big enough for us, cabin first time very close to lifts never heard a thing. Fastest we have ...
We ended up booking this cruise because the opportunity to travel to Barcelona, other parts of Spain and also Casablanca was very appealing. We were also looking for a cruise at this time of year and this was the most interesting itinerary we could find.
In our opinion Celebrity lived up to its billing as a premier cruise line. The service we received was excellent. We enjoyed the dining ...
So I booked this December cruise in the mediterranean and then started reading several negative review.I was worried. Had I made the wrong choice? I did not, so let me address the complaints I read and give you my experience.
Boarding: Was super fast. Maybe 15 min at the most.I was a solo traveler and boarded in Barcelona.
Room: I had a room with promenade view. Bed was super comfy and if I ...
I also did a live review that's much more comprehensive than this one, so search for Live from MSC World Europa. NYE Cruise, December 29, 2023 out of Barcelona on the MSC boards.
Pre-Cruise: We stayed 3 nights pre-cruise in Barcelona at the NH Collection Grand Hotel Calderon in Barcelona. I have American Express Platinum, which got me some extra credit and perks, but it was nice, clean, modern ...
I've worked on cruise ships a few years ago but this was our first experience cruising as passengers.
Good Stuff:
1. Embarkation was straightforward
2. Modern clean ship.
3. Cabin well proportioned and appointed
4. Cabin steward was really nice and always did a great job looking after us.
5. Guest singer in the Carouselle lounge was excellent - I'd look for her again when doing ...
I have cruised on various cruise lines so far including NCL, Celebrity, Carnival etc. This has been the worst from all aspects, except the staff. The food had literally no Vegetarian options. The shows were substandard. No coffee creamer’s. The quality of soap below par. Not even warm milk for coffee the first 2 days. I would not recommend this cruise line by any means. Please save your money and ...
We came back yesterday having spent a couple of days in Barcelona and then a 12-night cruise on the Celebrity Infinity sailing to Lanzarote, Tenerife, La Palma, Casablanca, Tangier, Cadiz, Valencia, Barcelona. The Infinity is the very first ship we ever sailed on, and now with many cruises under our belts, we were looking forward to seeing her again. Last time we had a standard balcony stateroom ...
This was an extremely disappointing cruise. The boat is much older and the passengers where not friendly at all. The staff where friendly for the most part but we where turned away for dinners that we paid for because we did not dress fancy enough for their standards. Some of the staff made fun of my outfits and specifically my hats which fueled the guests prejudice. They where bot really very ...
Our family cruise over the festive season had had to be cancelled three times because of the tragic pandemic. The cruise was probably the last occasion we could get our immediate family of three generations together for an extended vacation so there was much excitement when we finally set foot on board after all the disappointments over the previous three years.
We nevertheless approached ...
