We are experienced cruisers and have cruised on many various cruise lines over the years.
That said, we want to congratulate Celebrity on a great experience on Infinity recently.
We planned a trip to visit Europe and decided to take the Celebrity Infinity back to Miami.
The ship is scheduled for refurbishment next year and does show signs of age and the Wi-Fi system is terrible however, ...
We were looking for a longer cruise, and the possibility of a Trans-Atlantic and Europe (a first for me, not my Honey). We tend to look at Celebrity first for the balance and class - I can get a waterslide anywhere.
We spent 3 days in Rome prior to departure, and actually enjoyed walking 20 miles (really!) to tour the city. We were very lucky and happy with our Airbnb rental and the location. ...
Overall, we were extremely disappointed in the Celebrity cruise experience. This experience was strongly affected by the meals onboard.
We chose the Aqua Class cabin as we would be dining in the special restaurant Blu - for a better dining experience. Unfortunately this is where things went particularly bad. For specific examples, fish was overcooked and dry on one of our first evenings. We ...
The ship, although old, had a classics feel to it. Loved the way the Oceanview Café’s food stations are broken up, thus reducing congestion. The food there and in the main dining room was excellent. Probably the best we ever had on a ship. The specialty restaurants were not frequented well probably because of that.
Clearing the tables in the Oceanview is something they need to work on. ...
Great way to return back to North America after a European land tour.
Ship needs some updating, but everything is still fine.
Luigi, one of the best cruise directors ever. From Dominican Republic, young and endless energy.
Best entertainment lineup on over 30 cruises that we've taken.
Being a repo, additional entertainment was booked, afternoon shows and at least 3 guest lecturers. ...
On our last cruise we experienced a further deterioration on value on Celebrity cruises. Since last September, our last cruise on the same ship, beverage packages allowances have been altered drastically. With the standard liquor package no more cappuccinos and fresh juices are allowed. The beer selections has also been cut.
In the Dining Room the food was up and down. Often we had cold ...
Reading the reviews about the Infinity made me a little concerned about the age of the ship being we were doing a transatlantic trip 8 days at sea and ending up in Portugal and Spain.I cannot understand how some people can complain about this ship. The trip over seas was exceptional the ride smooth and the staff wonderful. I cannot begin to say how wonderful the experience was. I think if your ...
It seems much has changed since my last voyage on Celebrity. I’ve probably done a half dozen or more voyages with X over the years, and along with HAL considered it my favorite line. By way of background, I always travel in suites, so have the array of added benefits that this class of passage affords.
First, the positives: - The WiFi has become far more affordable, and far faster.
...
We choose this cruise because it was a Transatlantic one and it stopped in six ports, 4 in Spain and 2 in Portugal. Everything about this cruise was just fantastic. We had heard that the ship was dated and ready to be renovated, but we saw no evidence of that. Everything was exceptionally well-kept, and our service from all of the staff was impeccable.
We stayed in a suite and it was a ...
We boarded the ship in Ft Lauderdale and it was quick and easy. Our Concierge Cabin mid-ship on Deck 8 was a reasonable size, clean and comfortable with plenty of storage for our clothes and luggage. Our cabin steward, as usual, provided excellent service. The Atlantic crossing was so smooth you really didn't know you were moving.
We enjoyed the cruise but feel some things are definitely ...
