Celebrity Southern Caribbean Cruise Reviews

I have been on several cruises, mostly with Royal Caribbean but one prior Celebrity cruise eight years ago. The difference between that pervious Celebrity cruise and this one is noteworthy. This sailing left from Port Everglades, logistics and parking were typical and if you filled out all the documents and requests prior to embarkation day, it’s extremely quick. It’s worth the time to submit ...

We picked this cruise because it was 10 days and New Jersey schools were closed for some of the days we were cruising. We cruised with our 10 year old granddaughter, my daughter, son-in-law, my husband (78) and myself (75). We booked sunset veranda cabins that were adjoining on deck 6. I rented a scooter for my husband. Checking in was great. Luggage at the cabin - great so far. Stewart unlocked ...

Our reason to cruise Celebrity was that we have previously had a good experience with Celebrity and the ports were fun places. Unfortunately, lots of disappointment. We hold Elite status in Celebrity and Diamond Plus on RCCL, with about 30 cruises overall. Let’s start with the app…. It did not work for the safety briefing! Cut backs in bar staff is very poor business decision. We waited ...

Chose this cruise to celebrate our 50th Wedding Anniversary in June. Big mistake. We normally do not cruise in the summer because of the heat and because of there being too many kids onboard. Our last 3 cruises have been on Edge, Apex and Beyond which are all superb ships but unfortunately during the summer are all in Europe. The Equinox was very dated, crowded and disappointing. There ...

We chose this cruise for its itinerary. The Aruba excursion was extremely disappointing! Having been to Aruba several times, we love the beaches. Our Coral Club beach was far from beautiful. No mention of waist-deep only water. Food offered was fair. Speaking of food, Celebrity was known for excellent food in the past. We did not find that to be true on the Equinox. We had 1 superb meal ...

Service was a 10 everywhere. They got a little pushy with the drinks on the last couple of nights. The comedian and musician were fun, the production shows were so-so but it was obvious the cast members put a lot of work into them. "Neil Diamond" was good, but the soul singer and the cello player were just not up to standard. I actually had inedible food in the main dining room on two nights: ...

We booked this cruise back in July of 2022 because we kept hearing great things about Celebrity. For the most part the service was good outside of the main dining room but quality of food was about as low as you could go, including the specialty restaurant. Fruit was hard and zero taste, meat on the buffet was always a mystery because of the amount of sauce that they used to cover it up. Fatty, ...

Overall: This was our 5th cruise with Celebrity, 1st time on the Silhouette, and 35th cruise overall. For the most part we’ve always been very happy with our cruise experience on previous Celebrity cruises on the Solstice and Equinox. Maybe a dozen kids on this sailing, which was probably due to school being in session and a 10-day sailing. Nothing against kids onboard, our daughter grew up on ...

Took the 10 day Caribbean cruise leaving Tampa on April 7, 2023. Pros: Embarkation port of Tampa - a 1 1/2 hour drive from our home. Smaller ship, easier to navigate for one of us with mobility issues. Pleasant staff throughout. Clean concierge balcony stateroom that seemed updated in some respects (not others), unlike some previous reviews - no torn curtains or shower curtains. Bathroom ...

We've cruised more that ten times on Celebrity ships. A few noteworthy items. We got locked into our stateroom one morning because the door's locking mechanism under the handle refused to turn, so we called for help on the phone and explained clearly what the problem was. 15 minutes later, our phone rings and a staff member tells us, "I'm outside your door. I understand you have a problem ...
