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 ...
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 ...
I had been diagnosed with terminal cancer and I wanted to utilise the time whilst I was fit. It covered the Aegian coast which we had talked about visitin several times, it was likely to be warmer than England and originally we hoped to see Barcelona before embarking.
As for the boat. I personally thought the ship was a little too large and space had been sacrificed to squeeze in more cabins. ...
We are a couple - late 40s/early 50s.
We have 2 previous cruises under our belt - 7 nights fjords with P&O and 15 night TA with Princess.
We picked this cruise primarily for the itinerary - and it also came at a great price.
We were on Celebrity Eclipse - Cabin 1046 - Concierge Class and had Anytime dining.
Barcelona
Embarcation - incredibly messy - no-one appeared to stick to their ...
We chose this cruise for the ports and for the fact that we would embark and disembark in Barcelona (one of our favourite cities).
We had a few glitches on the first day but after that everything fell into place and the rest of the cruise was wonderful.
When we booked the only OV cabin available was 3174 and we were worried that it would be noisy but we had no problems throughout the ...
We just experienced our first Celebrity Cruise ( after more then 20 cruises and as a Diamond Plus Member of Royal Carribean ). We travelled in a Sky-suite aft with 4 perks included ( premium beverage package, unlimited Wifi, prepaid gratuities and a onboard credit of 150 Usd per person ). Taking into account the amount paid this was a very great value for money.
The overal service level is ...
Food was excellent, the attendants outstanding, Guest relations members called you to follow up on issue, the whole crew is really caring. Never had such a good experience
Tender service was fast
Entertainment might be a little bit more varied than just singer.
Enrichment activities could be improved, eg teaching water painting rather than just give you colored pencils to do
Always ...
The itinerary was the reason for choosing this cruise. Having sailed on 3 other Solstice class ships, we wanted to sail on Eclipse and were not disappointed! Celebrity has come through again with stupendous service from check-in through disembarkation. This ship was refurbished and it shines. Cleanliness and service is a hallmark. Our cabin was great with an attentive stateroom attendant and ...
The ports were exceptional. Eclipse is beautiful and easy to navigate! The embarkation and disembarkation went smoothly and easy! Our cabin was set up just as requested & our cabin steward was very efficient and responded quickly to our requests! We ate in the main dining room every night except for one night at the Tuscan Grill. The food was very good and our waiter and assistant waiter were ...
