Chose this cruise because it was a Repositioning cruise to S. America. Spent 4 days in Barcelona, exploring the city and enjoying all that it has to offer. Embarkation was quite crowded, but the lines moved smoothly. We had outstanding service on the Eclipse, both cabin attendants and dining staff were attentive and very friendly. Cabins were adequate and were in excellent shape. Our cruise ...
We were traveling with friends and my friend found the cruise. We had traveled on Celebrity before so we decided to go. We were concerned about the number of sea days but that was never a problem. There was plenty to do onboard. The staff was excellent from our room steward, Pablo, to the servers in the dining room and specialty restaurants. The entertainment was the best of any cruise we ...
This was our first cruise to South America. Crossing the Equator to the southern hemisphere is a unique experience. The 16 night itinerary from Barcelona to Buenos Aires included several ports of call we’ve never visited, and the cost was reasonable. We’ve sailed on the Eclipse several times, and were not concerned with getting bored on many days at sea.
We arrived in Barcelona after a 2 ...
Unfortunately we had to miss the last several days of the cruise due to a death in the family, but while on board everything was fantastic. We had an aqua class cabin which was very comfortable -great shower!-and ate at Blu every night. The food was fantastic as was the wait staff. Boarding was a breeze and the Celebrity staff really helped us out when we learned that we had to fly home early. We ...
The ship and her crew could not be faulted.
Having again booked Aqua Class we expected the food in the Blu restaurant to be of a similar standard to our past experiences. Unfortunately this was not the case and we found the menu to be somewhat repetitive and on a number of occasions ordered from the main dining room menu, which was in fact of a higher standard.
If we sail with Celebrity ...
The food in the restaurants was great, always a good choice and the servers were fast and friendly. Our cabin was kept immaculate at all times,the ship didn't feel too busy we could always find a quiet area and even had the indoor pool to ourselves at times. The bar staff were attentive and always happy to help with choices based on our preferences. The shows we attended were good and varied, it ...
The Celebrity Eclipse is the nicest Celebrity ship we have sailed. The common areas are beautifully appointed and the cabins feel fresh. There is a large library on two floors with comfortable seating. The self serve dining room is set up very well with good signage for different foods. The Theater is large with easy viewing and the main dining room is very nice. The food was excellent. The best ...
We have been cruising for almost 10 years, but this was our first time on Celebrity. We chose this particular cruise for the chance of some sun late in the year, and also based on good reviews for the ship. However, we were disappointed.
EMBARKATION/DISEMBARKATION : Southampton, quick and easy, very efficient.
SHIP : Clean, modern, and generally well maintained. However, we found it ...
This being our 3rd cruise on the Eclipse we knew what to expect, and she is still in great shape.
We generally book a balcony cabin but this being our 3rd cruise this year we thought that we try an economy inside on deck 8, cabin 8272 and I must say it was a pleasant surprise, very roomy with a large TV and plenty of channel options. we would certainly book this cabin again in a heart beat. ...
We chose this cruise because we wanted to go to Maderia. The timing was right and flying in and out of Heathrow was easy. I enjoyed it even more than I expected.
Boarding and disembarkation went quickly and easily. A huge difference from our Celebrity cruise out of Amsterdam last year.
We tried to avoid the buffet for most meals. It's just too crowded. When we did eat there the food was ...
