Our cruise started off in Reykjavik, Iceland. Much of the info regarding this trip on the internet was wrong. Many writers said that to get from the airport to the center of Reykjavik was difficult. That was wrong. There are buses exclusively for transportation from the airport to the city center at approximately $30 pp. Others said that from the central bus stop to your hotel was an easy walk. ...
We chose this cruise for the itinerary for Iceland & direction and timing (Our 25th). Our first and very likely LAST on Celebrity (previous on Princess/HAL). I was so disappointed in stateroom (UD Concierge), food & service. The food as many of the Elites we met in the MDR also agreed was just very, very repetitive, often slow & frequently not good. Had two hour-long waits there for our mains. We ...
We chose this cruise for two reasons. The first was the itinerary which included Iceland and Greenland. The itinerary was great and I would highly recommend it.
The second reason was because one person in our party has a gluten allergy and Celebrity has been great accommodating it in the past. Not so one this cruise. There were very few options available. In fact they offered the same two GF ...
The title of this review will be explained later, and it has nothing to do with hygiene. For identification purposes my wife and I have been cruising fairly regularly for the past 20 years. We are “older,” fairly healthy, we prefer taking the stairs to riding the elevator. Celebrity has been our favorite cruise line since the start, but we have also cruised on Princess, RCL, Holland America and ...
This was our fourth cruise on the Summit, of which three have been one week cruises roundtrip from Bayonne to Bermuda. We are Celebrity regulars, with multiple trips on Solstice-class ships and a recent cruise on the Beyond. Other than the Summit, we have not cruised on the other Millennium-class ships, mainly because we prefer the space and amenities of the larger ships. But we wanted a quick ...
We cruised on the Summit in December 2022 and fell in love with the ship. We liked the smaller size, the food was delicious, and the service was top-notch. When we saw she had a sailing to Bermuda in July 2023, we couldn't resist. We wish we had resisted and had chosen a different cruise line.
First of all, the good:
~Embarkation was the easiest of any port we have ever been to. It was ...
Due to COVID I had to cancel a long Celebrity cruise and had cruise credit to use up.
As my wife cannot fly, we pick ports in driving range. So, Bermuda here we come. A lovely Island.
The wheelchair support on and off ship was excellent. Great embarkation and disembarkation teams.
Welcome lunch in main dining room was disappointing. Wife's salmon was nearly jerky, and the room setup ...
Room service: 5/5
Stateroom attendant provided awesome job. He tidied up the room twice a day. He was polite and friendly.
Oceanview Cafe: 2.5/5
Food choices were fewer. There were 4 permanent stations offering the same exact basic food daily, namely Pasta, Stir fry, Salad, Pasta and Mexican. Only 2 stations offered different verities, namely Indian and there was daily feature.
Dessert ...
This is my review of our July 9th sailing on the Celebrity Summit to Bermuda. This was my family’s first time sailing with Celebrity, though in the past we’ve sailed with RC, NCL, and Carnival. My wife and I celebrated our 25th Anniversary while onboard. Hopefully this might help someone decide on Celebrity, the Summit, or the Bermuda itinerary. I tried to break the review into categories, but ...
We stayed in Manhattan for three nights prior to boarding the cruise. I found it difficult to find information on how to best get to the port, but definitely have a car service get you there. This was the fastest boarding we have had in 21 cruises, which was a really nice start to the cruise. Once on board we went to our room to drop off our carry on luggage, our room keys were on the door. ...
