Beautiful ship with crappy contents

Review for a Australia & New Zealand Cruise on Celebrity Edge

6-10 Cruises ā€¢ Age 30s

We were very excited to board the Celebrity Edge for our post-wedding cruise. We had recently been on one of the millennium-class ships, but the new edge class looked so much more impressive and appealed more to our sense of style. In anticipation we had watched all kinds of videos, and read all kinds of reviews on what to expect. In person it is just as stunning as we had expected, and the ...

Requires a refit

2-5 Cruises ā€¢ Age 60s

The ship looks very tired and requires a refit. The carpets all had a smell about them and urgently need replacing. The food was OK but I felt they tried too hard. It would have been better to have simpler food cook very well. It was mostly meat and nothing else. A lack of any vegetables or carbs. The staff could not be faulted they all gave 100% to make sure you had everything you needed. ...

This cruise was selected for the itinerary. It went to all the South Pacific islands that we wanted to visit. We mostly dined at the main dining room. The waiters and food were excellent - could not fault the service. We dined at the Oceanview CafƩ, which is a buffet style, at times and while the selection and quality of food was also excellent, we found it to be far too busy for us and we ...

6-10 Cruises ā€¢ Age 60s

In Sept. 2021 we cruised the Apex. It had only been sailing since June, great ship, service, food, and shows. Eclipse not so much. In fact, because of our b2b2b we will not sail with Celebrity again. On Jan. 14 we started on Eclipse to do the Fiji islands (12 night) then New Zealand (12 night) and finished with Australia wine tour (9 night). To start with the staff was amazing, always working ...

Disappointing

We are seasoned cruisers, and this was our sixth Celebrity Cruise. We were looking forward to the same Celebrity experience we've had previously on other ships, however we were disappointed overall with the offering on the Eclipse. Let's start with the positives, and what went well: 1. The solarium pool was a very enjoyable space that we used a lot. We never struggled to find an empty deck ...

Myself and my wife selected this cruise which would offer the opportunity to visit countries not seen before (with the exception of New Zealand). Overall, there were highs and lows (quite a lot, actually). As follows: Highs: Entertainment - actually pretty good. Bearing in mind that not all the performances (around 45 minutes) would suit every taste, we found most to our liking. Very stylish, ...

We like New Zealand and decided that it would be a good way to go for a short cruise which started in Auckland and finished in Sydney. One of the selling points was that the ship was coming back to Sydney via Eden on the south Coast of NSW.. On the morning of embarkation in Auckland it was a fairly long process because of the corona virus scare - everyone had to have their temperature taken.. ...

We flew from Sydney to Auckland via Air New Zealand and stayed three nights at the Sofitel property Grand Windsor in Queen St. We had breakfast included and there were plenty of restaurants and cafes nearby for lunches and dinners. The hotel was in a great location. Highly recommend day trip to Waiheke Island (and we would stay overnight when we visit NZ again). We travelled with another couple ...

I have read a review by Msglodenhair and agree with most of her review of her on board experience, of the ship and the captain and crew. However prior to embarkation, I had attempted to register on the Celebrity email log on pages that my wife was Gluten intolerant and that she would need a Gluten free diet. Having cruised in the Princess and P & O lines, that was a simple option to highlight ...

We flew from London to Auckland via Emirates. Everything ran as per schedule and we arrived in New Zealand 3 days prior to the cruise. It took about an hour or so to go through immigration and customs before leaving the airport. However apart from usual bag checks no other checks like temperature monitoring were being carried out at the airport. We were transferred to our central Auckland hotel ...
