"We almost wish they had one more pool since the ones they have get pretty crowded especially on sea days.One of the highlights was the silent disco where you wear headphones and have 3 different channels to choose from for dancing...."Read More
We chose Celebrity thinking we would get a better experience and more refined than we have on RYC (which have been great on the 3 cruses we have taken with them).
I was quite disappointed to be honest, the ship was tired with worn out carpet, rust visible on the outside of the ship and generally not the experience we were sold. Most of the staff were great and tried to make up for the tired ...
We had always wanted to do a Cape Horn cruise as it is one of the classic voyages. We were 2 couples. Coming out of Covid, the incentives were fantastic with free drinks, tips and (slow) wifi.
Embarkation from Valparaiso was a gong show as I believe ours was the first ship departing for Celebrity from that port in about 3 years. Lots of grumbling in the very long line and many of the staff ...
The Celebrity Infinity is 21 years old and it looks it. The decor, carpets and furnishing are dated and tired in appearance.
We had a sky suite which one invisions a large spacious suite, it is not spacious or luxurious. The closet dorrs were broken and cracked loudly every time you opened them. As the doors would not close, the closet light was always on, so at night we had to push two chairs ...
Had never been to S. America. Sounded interesting going to "end of the world", visiting Buenos Aries for a few days before cruise. Have enjoyed Celebrity in the past on Millenium ships.
Cabin was not prepared at all. First day, shower flooded, plumber came and plunged drain and dirt came out. Sink stopper didn't work, AC didn't work (electrician had to come), no ticket in laundry bag, no ...
I loved the itinerary of going from Buenos Aires to Santiago, around the Horn. This was also over Christmas and New Years. They did a good job of having the Christmas spirit and did celebrate New Years in a grand way. Captain gets a 5 star along with Manuel, Crew Director. Housekeeping and Servers a 5 star. But the food was ordinary or a bit tasteless. Food and desserts looked good but food ...
This was a trip of a lifetime. It offered a wonderful itinerary with interesting ports, walkable cities, and incredible scenery along a route few get the opportunity to sail.
PROS
The Ports!!!
The food was fantastic aboard the Infinity. We have recently sailed on another Celebrity ship and found the Infinity’s food in the MDR much better quality this time around. The buffet had some ...
To give you some perspective on my observations/opinions, this was our seventeenth cruise. We have taken nine cruises on Celebrity and eight on Royal Caribbean. We are fortunate to be able to sail in suites and on this cruise, we sailed in Royal Suite 6137. Our cruise prior to this was on Apex, also in a RS and the one before that was on Anthem of the Seas in a Star Class Suite. Therefore, I ...
OK, I have read the previous reviews and yes this is a smaller, older ship that needs (and is scheduled for in 2024) refurbishment. As the cruise Director Dave noted "yes, we don't have all the bells and whistles of some of the newer ships, but we work hard to make up for it with excellent service and quality attention to detail". And he was dead on correct. Dave, by the way, was one of the most ...
We're in our 70's and have been on 30 cruises, various lines, but mostly Princess. I figured Celebrity was similar and wanted to check them out since it'd been years since we'd done a Celebrity cruise. Each line has their own advantage.
for us, it's the lack of children on both. We love children but not the chaos on a cruise ship.
The ship itself was fine but I missed the grand foyer of ...
When we booked this cruise, we knew the Infinity had not yet been refurbished. Although a bit dated, we found the ship to be in reasonably good condition. We spent most of our days on the pool decks, participated in trivia, went to the World Wine Tour event, etc. We were surprised with the number of pool servers available to take drink orders, unlike what was being reported on other ships. We ...
