The eclipse is a beautiful ship without doubt. It has a perfect layout for someone staying in a “hump” cabin. The..."Read More

1-10 of 170 Caribbean Celebrity Eclipse Caribbean Cruise Reviews
This cruise has become an annual "get away from the snow" event. I guess it'll be our last one for 14 nights so we are joining a lot of other disappointed cruisers who have become spoiled. It'll be hard to replace, impossible on Celebrity but we are booked for a 12 night Med. cruise this September on Eclipse and with Captain Leo.
I recently became on the the 15 or 20 percent of the population ...
I agree that there was room to improve in areas. The itinerary was great and my cabin steward excellent, the food was good but not excellent , I ate in the café did not go to dining rooms or specialty. The shops and the personnel in the shops were snobbish, I am not a dressy dresser and felt like I was looked down upon every time I went to shop. The casino was horrible and extremely noisy and ...
This was our 15th Cruise, 2nd on Celebrity. The Eclipse is exceptionally clean, well maintained, and has a crew that appears to be happy and helpful.
The Oceanview Cafe by far was the best designed “buffet” we’ve experience, bright, roomy, and with many many options to choose. The staff were constantly clearing tables and getting drinks, and the food servers were polite and gave portion size ...
We have sailed this route twice before, so the excursions were of little interest to us. The ports offered free Wi-Fi and that was nice. It was a little hotter than we remembered, but the weather for the entire 2 weeks was sunny and a little breezy.
The water was so calm that we couldn't even tell that we were moving. Well that - AND the fact that we only had to sail a short distance ...
Staff once again went out of their way to impress and please us.
Special thank you to staff at Al Bacio, no matter how busy, they keep their friendly smile. The Dining room staff was well organized and we really liked the efficiency of the breakfast team.
Future cruise staff was unfortunately a big disappointment, they just don't care!
The only other big disappointment was the post ...
An enjoyable 14 day cruise. The ship is very attractive and well maintained. This was our tenth cruise and third on Celebrity. Embarkation was quick and smooth - the Port of Miami seems to do it right! Disembarkation (Easter Sunday) was long delayed due to a shortage of port customs personnel.
Our cabin steward was excellent and the Blu restaurant (Aqua Class Stateroom) was a real ...
Our previous cruise experience is with Princess (Sapphire P and Island P) and Costa (C Concordia and C Luminosa). The last Princess cruise, passing the Panama Canal, was less than a year ago and it´s tempting to compare our impressions of Celebrity and Princess. (Costa is a bit different – not bad, especially if you like Italian food, but different.)
It´s obvious that Celebrity and Princess are ...
14 night Southern Caribbean Cruise – Miami 04/03/2018
This was our very first cruise, we travelled with friends who had also never cruised before, only spoken to friends who were seasoned cruisers.
So it was with some trepidation, that we embarked on our first Caribbean cruise.
Our trepidation in vain, when we arrived at the check-in desk. From that point to arriving at our the state ...
First, Based upon vacations to go ratings, this is listed as a 5.5 star ship. Three months earlier I sailed on the Carnival Elation which is a 3.5 star ship. My review has the perspective of what should be significantly different ships and experiences. What Celebrity did better:
Entertainment in the theater was excellent. The shows performed by the onboard cast as well as the quality of ...
We chose this cruise as a means of chiiling out on what appeared (from reviews) to be a nice ship. The ports were only of a limited interest, as we had already been to 5 of the 7 being visited - and some of those more than twice before.
The staff on this ship are brilliant - from the very personable captain downwards. He made sure that he spoke to everone on board and uniquely (in our ...
