Celebrity Italy Cruise Reviews

Have sailed 7 plus times with celebrity on The Silhouette, The Reflection and the Beyond. Have always been impressed with the cruise if not the Customer service which is NOT fir for purpose. however this time I have realized the changes made by the new CEO on 15.08.2023 have made this frankly a poor class budget cruise line with high end prices !! The first and most alarming issue was that the ...

In 18 years of cruising this was the worst cabin location we have ever encountered. Aqua cabins are located immediately below the Sauna/Solarium which entails being woken at 7 am each morning by furniture, etc being dragged across the deck above. In addition the balconies on these cabins are entirely devoid of direct sunshine due to the very ugly and huge overhang of the deck above. We have ...

My wife and I decided to try a cruise after a 14 year gap. We wanted a ship that was newer with all the elegance one would expect. But that was not the case. Gone are all the special Star cases and chandeliers that were common on ships we sailed. Replaced with practical decor. Mediocre at best. And our major concern were the number of passengers, 3200, which we should of listened to reason. With ...

My first review and sadly despite being a really positive person this is a truthful account of what we encountered on Celebrity Beyond last week. We paid for a balcony cabin and got a oceanview room with an electric wind down window—they sell this as an infinite balcony. If you like to sunbathe on a balcony or have an early morning coffee on your balcony whilst your husband sleeps this is ...

I had always cruised on smaller lines, but could not find a small ship which would fit in with my travel dates. The ports were interesting and my husband and I wanted to try a bigger ship Unfortunately the ship although large does not have enough elevators, I used the stairs most of the time. The elevators are slow and overloaded. The food was very tasteless, and the specialty restaurants ...

Beware of the package you pay the Celebrity Consultant when booking. They are happy to charge but do not disclose the FACTS. Beverages All Inclusive have 2 formats. Soft beverages do not include Bottled Carbonated Water (WHAT?!). On Board you are given a different story. WiFi - 2 kinds. Classic which does not work and you are called a guest. The full access is $139/pp. (WHAT?!). Trips booked by ...

Where to begin. The room. We were supposed to have a balcony. It was a window that went down - sometimes. While most ships have a sliding door that goes to an actual balcony, this had a folding flimsy door. When traveling with my sister, I will sit on the balcony and have my coffee until she wakes up. I couldn't do that because, since there wasn't a door separating to the balcony, the wind ...

My wife and I are retired and have done more than 20 cruises. This was our second Celebrity cruise. We are doing a 7-month RTW trip and this cruise was a chill-out time after 2-months travelling around Europe. Although it was Beyond's 4th cruise, we found the cruise to be still getting up to speed. On boarding in the first day in Rome we went for lunch in one of the restaurants and the food was ...

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 ...

I have been on 21 cruises, 11 with Celebrity and 10 with RCCL, so I know how Celebrity standards should be and what they weren't on this cruise. The Constellation was built in 2002 and it shows. She is going into refurb in March 2020, but only for cosmetic updates and not mechanical fixes. In the meantime, Celebrity is doing NOTHING to keep the ship in good condition. There is visible rust ...
