Celebrity Rome (Civitavecchia) Cruise Reviews

The food in the dining room at times was inedible. The chef of 32-years with Celebrity did a presentation of the secrets of pastry making was charismatic but disclosed that he has overseen movement to buy some goods rather than utilize kitchen staff to make common dishes. Unfortunately this decision has destroyed the reputation for the quality of food on the Celebrity Cruise Line which is one of ...

This is our 5th T/A crossing and it was one we could without. Some people like this ship but to us it was old and dark, I mean that literally. Half the lights in main dining were out and never came on for the whole cruise. Also if you were seated on the second level your food was cold most of the time. Forget about getting someone to clean the mold in the shower and the cabin attendant forgot to ...

Our recent transatlantic cruise aboard the Beyond (Oct 30 – Nov 13) was, unfortunately, the worst cruise experience we’ve ever had. We were booked into a Sky Suite on deck 11 and on the very first day I noticed a musty odor as we opened the cabin door for the first time. My partner didn’t smell it so I simply chalked it up to a typical ‘down south smell’ that you often get in warmer, humid ...

Our recent transatlantic cruise aboard the Beyond (Oct 30 – Nov 13) was, unfortunately, a terrible disappointment. My 60th birthday celebration turned into an endurance exercise and we could not wait for it to end. Frankly the worst experience we’ve ever had. We were in The Retreat, in a Sky Suite. We had previously cruised in April 2022, on the Apex [Retreat - Sky Suite - Ft Lauderdale to ...

So here I am in my $17,000 stateroom. First thing is the system won’t allow me to access my premium WiFi. It’s included but obviously not properly programmed in the system. Have to start my vacation waiting in line for a retreat host to fix it. Why not just fix the programming? Then I come across filth on at least two surfaces in the room, both looking suspiciously like dried blood. The container ...

We are retirees and have been on a dozen Celebrity cruises. We have no regrets for having chosen the Beyond with an Infinite balcony. Would we choose an infinite balcony again? No we would not. We missed being outdoors first thing in the morning while having juice and juice on the balcony. The cabin and washroom were very well appointed and lacked nothing at all. Ports of calls were ...

Simply put we were very disappointed with this ship. We found that the most frustrating thing for us was the fact that either the ship was overbooked or simply could not cope or function with the amount of guests. Everywhere you went there were long lines of fed up guests. Restaurants had queues every night which led to tension. The elevators were constantly crammed full of ...

We went with my daughter and her boyfriend to celebrate her 30th birthday. We had 2 balcony cabins which were adequate in size, quiet and comfortable. Boarding was hassle free and we found our cabins without a problem. Service by the staff was, as always, excellent but there was a palpable sense of stress as though the staff were having to work too hard. They seem to have to work 12 hours a day ...

Upfront, I'm not posting to boast about my dozen cruises this year... or my usual suite accommodations... nor do I have any hidden agendas that others seem to list "between the lines." This is merely my perspective in comparing Celebrity today with the Celebrity I previously loved 3 years ago. Some, most, or all who differ with my assessment will probably want to use the ramifications of COVID ...

Wanted to try a different ship. Usually go with a group of family and friends of 20 Money grab. Drinks package $59 plus 20% a day. We said No but waiters fairly insistent. One wIter argued that it was 20% OFF .. no such thing. Music Trivia very boring .. no fun at all. On P & O we laughed till our faces ached. Constellation staff shuffled us off as soon as possible because every afternoon ...
