We chose this cruise since it was going to all of the ports we were interested in going to. We were both celebrating our 70th birthdays.
We have been on Celebrity before on an Alaskan cruise two years ago and were quite satisfied. However, this cruise left a little to be desired. The cabin was very nice and our cabin steward was terrific. Even though we are now 70 years old, we are not ...
My wife and I took the September 1 to 11, 2017 cruise. Once the ship docked at the different ports we had wonderful days. Each stop in Greece, Malta and Italy were fantastic. The cabin, we were on Deck 11 Starboard side, was very nice. Our cabin attendant was great. The cabin was kept spotless, we had plenty of towels in the bathroom. The only issue was, we had to request the bed sheets ...
First time on a cruise in the Med during school holiday and NEVER again.
I have been with celebrity cruises about 8/10 times and this is the worse experience. I would never choose Refelection again.
As soon as we arrived, we were addressed by our first name by the cabin attendant when he introduced himself to us and I found it uncomfortable as we didn't even know that person. The same again ...
First time cruising with celebrity,after 3 previous cruises with royal Caribbean and po
Expected to get a five star cruise and was disappointed,firstly we had problems with anytime dining,you weren't allowed to dine anytime.The first evening we were told our dining time was 9.30pm and couldn't be changed,we were told we couldn't book a table between 6.30-8.30pm as that was the busiest time.We ...
One of the few ships that provided the ports-of-call we were seeking. It allowed our family to vacation together with a minimum of stress and we generally were satisfied with our choice. We were gone from the ship for most of the days we were in port, so on board activities were limited to the evenings, but not much of the offerings tempted us to go often or stay late.
A point of ...
We had previously cruised with Norwegian and Princess and was looking for a step up in terms of service and food etc, I can safely say after 10 nights on board, the search is still ongoing.
Embarkation- This was a breeze we arrived at the port of Rome around 11am and we was on board by 11.30am and eating our first meal in the Oceanview Buffet, they do tend to like you to go up to this area as ...
Itinary was very good. History and archeology interesting in Greece, Turkey and Italy. Excursions to Delos and Ephesus excellent, with superb, knowledgable guides. Crete was disappointing as no organised tours to Knossos, we hired a car, but only had 1.5 hrs there. Ship could have docked for longer to allow visit to best sites.
Ship itself was clean and the staff friendly and helpful. The ...
We have cruised with Celebrity since 2008 - 7 cruises - sadly the standards declining as the years go by. Middle management confirmed it is all about profit now.
Reflection is still in good condition, but the staff are in fear of losing their jobs with near impossible targets. There are less staff - and the cabin stewards rely wholly on tips for their wage - no salary is paid to them. Our ...
We are not regular/keen cruisers and tend to cruise maybe once every 4 years to places that interest us. This cruise fullfilled that requirement but 10 nights was long enough. As usual however ship was full of bores who collected cruises, sometimes not getting off the ship because they had visited the ports many times before.
Hated the area around the pools - which were hardly big enough to ...
Unhappy with the drinks package that came with our cruise (Classic), there was no option to buy a drink above the price limit imposed per drink without paying full price for it. However if you have a Premium drinks package then you can pay the difference - bizarre! Had chosen Select Dining, turned out to be a fiasco which sent us to Guest Relations to have this removed because despite having a ...
