1-10 of 19 Celebrity Infinity Cruise Reviews for Senior to Europe - Eastern Mediterranean
Firstly let me say that I read over 100 reviews of Infinity before the cruise. The average score, below 3 out of 5 with many scoring it 1, made it difficult to predict how enjoyable this cruise would be.
This was my first Celebrity cruise although my wife & daughter sailed on Equinox about 12 yrs ago.
For us the biggest plusses on this cruise were the staff, the entertainment & the ...
Sadly, it is the last day of our cruise. I am happily sitting in the Constellation at deck 11 forward tip of the ship lounge with a cup of coffee, enjoying the view of Hydra. I love this lounge. It is huge, 3/4s around floor to seating windows, air conditioned and quiet most of day time.
First, I will comment on a couple of board type topics. We had chocolates on our pillows, our room was ...
About us: I'm in my early 60s and my GF is in her late 50s. I've cruised over 20 times, mostly on Celebrity & MSC.
Full Thread/Blog: I did a day-by-day write-up called "We board Infinity in about an hour. Let me know if you have any questions". It goes into considerably more detail.
Overview: This was a 7 day cruise out of Ravenna, which is about 3 hours from Venice. It stopped in ...
We chose this Celebrity cruise because it seemed to have some interesting and exotic ports. The cruise line was an important choice, but the ship didn't seem to be that important. But we were pleasantly surprised. The Infinity is about 20 years old, and to be honest, it could stand to be freshened up. The decor seemed dated, but clean and in good shape. The Infinity can hold a little over 2,000 ...
We enjoyed this as a family but helped to have adjoining room for two teens. We had inside state rooms but next time would choose a balcony for after excursion. Not all ports all day so that was a bummer and limited on what you can do at port. Space inside cabin ok but small. Kids thought pool too small for amount of people. Did not use pool in solarium because way too hot overall. Gym ok ...
We chose this cruise, knowing Celebrity from previous cruises and because of the itinerary . It was not Celebrity at its best, but close behind.
Highlights were Kusadasi (Efesos) and Hydra. Low were Santorini. You have one low capacity cablecar to get up /down to/from the town. With 3 cruise ships at the same time it resulted in long waiting times, up to 3 hours.
The ship could do with a ...
Like many others we were apprehensive before this cruise after having read various reviews but we were pleasantly surprised and enjoyed this cruise from Barcelona to Athens.
We have been cruising regularly since 2000 and enjoy not only quiet public spaces inside,some with professional musicians playing in the evening but also quiet areas on deck during the day, both these were available on ...
We chose this cruise because we had a credit from a previous Celebrity Cruise where we had a problem. I liked the itinerary and despite some negative reviews about the Infinity we decided to go for it. All in all I thought it was a fine trip. Embarkation went very smoothly and we enjoyed the Concierge special lunch. Althought the ship was far from new it was not a dump. There were some ...
Over all the ship is average.
Lame lecture circuit.. here we are in the middle of history, Jerusalem, Bethlehem, Rhodes, Malta....you would think a guest lecturer would put some spin of the past, but NO.. the only speaker missed the mark.. had several lectures on how to talk to your dog. Yes. And the turkey is on for the next cruise, too. He is a “ringer”, no way could you get this gig without ...
My adult daughter and I booked almost 2 years before the sailing date because of the itinerary. It is not easy to find a ship that makes these ports of call in one sailing. I like Celebrity.
It was easy to get around the ship as well as embarking and disembarking. Everything went so smoothly and quickly. We choose an inside cabin on a lower deck because we like walking the stairs for exercise, ...
