A 23 year old ship is never going to be impressive compared to a glitzy new one, but you know that before you board. What Infinity might lack in the the latest pizzazz it more than makes up for in style and friendliness and the recent dry-dock has left her nicely smartened up. Many carpets, furniture and beds have been replaced. (They even renewed many balcony chairs mid cruise).
Being a ...
Pros.. the balcony room was of a good size and didn't disappoint. The excursions were well organised but only in English. free shuttles from some of the ports to town centre were offered. The entertainment was good enough.
Cons... the ship deals only in English. Excursions only offered in English even though departing from Athens. Everything is geared towards American traveller; the air ...
Firstly let me say that I read over 100 reviews of Infinity before the cruise. The average score, below 3 out of 5 with many scoring it 1, made it difficult to predict how enjoyable this cruise would be.
This was my first Celebrity cruise although my wife & daughter sailed on Equinox about 12 yrs ago.
For us the biggest plusses on this cruise were the staff, the entertainment & the ...
The majority of our past cruises have been with Royal Caribbean (RCI) and we have been happy with RCI but we wanted to try something different so we traded up to Celebrity and booked a cruise on Celebrity Infinity for March 2024. Not worth it. The only advantage over RCI that we could see was a larger shower. The food was in no way better than our RCI cruises in fact the Celebrity menu and buffet ...
Loved this cruise. Certainly helped by great weather and low price but also had very interesting ports of call of Thessaloniki (where we overnighted, and especially enjoyed), Kusadasi, Limassol, Rhodes and Heraklion. I've reviewed all of these in the relevant Ports of Call sections). Ship itself looking good after a refit, staff very cheerful and helpful, and food variable but generally good ...
We ended up booking this cruise because the opportunity to travel to Barcelona, other parts of Spain and also Casablanca was very appealing. We were also looking for a cruise at this time of year and this was the most interesting itinerary we could find.
In our opinion Celebrity lived up to its billing as a premier cruise line. The service we received was excellent. We enjoyed the dining ...
We chose infinity after traveling on solstice and we're very impressed. Sadly the infinity is no where near the same class. It is shabby and much of the decks are rusty.
The food in main dining room can only be described as school dinner type food. Very little choice and basic . The entertainment in bars is again very basic with little audience engagement.
The staff work very hard but ...
I am an experienced traveler and had some Marriott vacation club points to use or lose so booked this ten night trip from Barcelona to the Canary Islands and Morocco. Neither of those destinations were worthwhile. Cádiz was interesting. Celebrity is no different than RC or Norwegian. Same tawdry shops, casino, silly activities, mediocre food, staff who fake that they like their jobs. The cruise ...
We've previously had nothing but great experiences on our prior two cruises with Celebrity. So, we were excited for an opportunity to visit the Canary Islands, Morocco, and Cadiz onboard the Celebrity Infinity. We went in with the understanding that Infinity is older than the other ships we've cruised on with Celebrity. However, I was not prepared for our stateroom experience that was literally ...
As title took 2 1/2 hours to get though customs, and this is not the first time, so I will never cruise on any ship from Barcelona again. Going the other way trying to get out of Barcelona wasn't much better only took 1 1/2 hours so be carful. The ship great I like that size of ship 2500 / 3500 people is big enough for us, cabin first time very close to lifts never heard a thing. Fastest we have ...
