Celebrity Southern Caribbean Cruise Reviews

As a past cruiser with Celebrity for the past twenty years I am saddened to report that the cruise line had gone downhill in terms of food variety, entertainment, and staffing in an obvious way to save money while raising prices. The fault in not on the staff, the are friendly and helpful and always smiling, and they keep the ship clean and safe. However, in the mdr the appetizers except ...

Have been on six Celebrity Cruises. This was the most disappointing Cruise we have been on with celebrity. We sail concierge class . We greatly missed not having a balcony. The infinity window was a joke. It would be similar to looking out your window. The solstice class ship is much better than the Edge class . The acoustics in the main dance area was terrible. In addition, the female band that ...

My wife and I choose this cruise based on our past experience with Celebrity when we went on a Med cruise 6 years ago. We were on the Celebrity Reflection and what a wonderful cruise. Everything was great and the food was fantastic. We therefore expected an even better experience on the new ship - Beyond. First impression when we got on the ship was “Wow” !!! Absolutely a beautifully ...

We have only sailed with Celebrity Cruises (6 in the last 10 years). It’s sad to see that post-Covid, despite investing in refurbishing their ships, they’ve taken away some of the things that made it a 5-star experience. No longer are you greeted with champagne or a mimosa on entry. In AquaClass rooms, no more daily tea, fruit or canapés. I’m told that’s for concierge class now but AquaClass ...

After 22 Celebrity cruises it was an almost automatic choice. We have always been delighted with the quality of food on Celebrity cruises. This time the food in the main dining room was mediocre at best and nowhere near what we were accustomed to. Even the speciality restaurants had lost any wow factor. As usual, all waiting staff were excellent but it must have been a challenge to stay ...

We have not been on a cruise in about 9 years. This was my 10th cruise overall. Amazing ship, modern, cozy, beautiful, interesting and elegant. Much nicer than I expected. A noticeable step up from any ship I have sailed on. Crew was very friendly, helpful and for the most part attentive. Did not see any obvious staff shortages except in one dining room. Food was good, not amazing and ...

Let me start by noting we were fortunate to stay in the “Retreat” in an upper level suite. We originally booked this cabin (no Move Up) so perks, etc. described below are what come with booking. Check-in was quick (though we were misdirected a couple of time). There was a separate area for Retreat passengers with pastries and water/soda. There was no separate drop-off for Retreat luggage (more ...

Celebrity Silhouette January 29 to February 8, 2024 Our goal was to get away from the cold northern states, and we mostly enjoyed very nice weather. We booked this southern Caribbean cruise right after our first, very positive sailing with Celebrity. Unfortunately, this sailing was not comparable to our transatlantic on the Constellation. Precruise: We flew direct to FLL and stayed ...

We booked this cruise while on our previous Celebrity cruise (Edge) in January 2023. Many Retreat perks have been eliminated over the past year. 1. No butler. We were never welcomed by a butler. The housekeeper introduced herself but that was the extent. We never received necessary information regarding changes in Retreat policies upon embarkation. 2. Poor communications overall. See ...

Our last 9 cruises were with Celebrity. The last 3 were on the Edge and Apex. We were looking forward to another enjoyable cruise. So disappointed. The ship was packed as were the public areas. Difficult to find seating. The chair hogs on the outside decks were in full force. Watched one couple actually had their "stuff" on 3 different areas!! So glad we had a sunset veranda which ...
