Celebrity Bahamas Cruise Reviews

It was recommended by friends so we tried the line and wanted to go on the newest ship. We’ve been on both Norwegian 2 times and Carnival once on the Mardi Gras. We did not enjoy the beyond. It had no comedy club and the buffet food was not as good as the other lines. The overall smell in the ship though (deck 5 smelled like a morgue was on it) ruined it. My teen kids were bored out of their ...

This was my second year in a row taking this short holiday Bahamas cruise. I will share a few thoughts but overall it was a good experience and gave me the short break I needed at the end of the year. I would recommend Celebrity and the Summit. Travel to Miami - flew into Miami on Christmas night arriving near midnight. I was booked at the Hilton Garden Inn Miami Airport West. They offer a ...

We booked this cruise only a couple weeks in advance on a whim. We'd been searching for a room over Christmas that could hold 4 (2 adults + 2 kids) that sailed out of Florida and couldn't find anything on any line. When we saw a room become available on the Ascent, we booked it without knowing anything about Celebrity or the Ascent. What a surprise when we realize this was a brand new ship ...

Deck 11, Incredibly noisy in good weather, intolerably so in wind. Weather was not good for this sailing (Dec 24), but I can only compare it to heavy items being slid across our ceiling and then dropped. This cabin is on the back of the ship with a beautiful view... A real balcony, as we don't do the infinite verandas. We were expecting that we might experience more motion due to the location, but ...

By far the coldest ship we’ve ever been on, the air conditioning must have been at the highest level. All the bars and lounges were freezing, we saw people coming in and shivering and leaving again. The restaurant was so cold the food went cold very quickly. We were told it was centrally controlled and could not be altered. The shore excursions were a disaster, some because of the weather which ...

In the pre-covid days we had a very nice Mediterranean Cruise on Celebrity Summit. It was one of their older ships but was in fine fettle, the crew were great, food and entertainment fine and the kids club was used by our (then) 6 year old granddaughter. So we decided to book our first "holiday" cruise - over Xmas and New Years - for 2020. Well, needless to say, that didn't happen. We used the ...

There needs to be a way for guests to see reviews of shore excursions. Took 4 and none were as described. St Lucia: 4x4 Waterfall and Beach Adventure This excursion from Celebrity was ok. Over an hour bus ride to a waterfall. Short walk to the waterfall. Saw local scenery along the way. Overall not a good use of limited time in the island. The beach was along the highway. If you dont ...

Having taken numerous cruises, including recent sailings on Virgin, Holland America, and Princess, I can say my 5-night Celebrity Equinox cruise stands out as one of my most enjoyable recent experiences. While some aspects like dining have changed since my last Celebrity cruise in 2012, the line still delivers excellent service, entertainment, and ship maintenance. Celebrity strikes a fine balance ...

Wanted a pre holiday mayhem trip and this fit the bill. Ship was 100% booked, but didn't really feel like it. We were in ov deck 3 fwd.. Our fav spot for a cabin..guest service, main atrium & a bar all 10 or so doors away..oh & fwd elevators handy as well. Food was good in main drm. We did the steak house & it was fine w better service than main drm. Buffer was really well laid out and had ...

Went on this cruise pre-Christmas 2023. Found a great price on a Concierge class cabin. We've been cruising since 1988 and are both around 60 years old. I drink, but my spouse does not. CONS: The ship is older, but headed for dry dock in a few months. Rust was apparent outside our balcony but did not cause any concern. Some public area seating needs to be renovated. Be sure to note if ...
