Celebrity Infinity Review
Rating by category
Additional details
This was my second cruise overall and both on Celebrity. I am a solo traveler, and appreciated the many opportunities I had to meet a wide variety of people. I really liked the smaller configuration of the Infinity, and the layout of my cabin. I appreciated the ability to walk from the back to the front of the ship in the cabin aisle, allowing me to skip walking through the shops, casino and bars. The solarium was a welcome treat, filtered sunlight and restful atmosphere. The snack bar served excellent smoothies, in addition to soups and sandwiches, also tasty. I enjoyed both the hot tubs and the pool. There were so many thoughtful touches all over this space.
The shops were a lot of fun and I saw every one of them, more than once. The shopping was excellent, and the sales were a lot of fun. I bought many rings and bracelets, which I already treasure and wear every day. There really is something for everyone on the ship if you enjoy shopping.
The food was excellent in every respect. There was an ever-changing menu in the Main Dining Room, and the service was outstanding. I had select dining, which allowed me to choose a time, and also whether I wanted to share a table with 8-10 others or could choose a solo table. I meet some really wonderful people at the shared table, and was able to share tips with them about cruising, excursions and cruise lines. It was interesting to hear about their hometowns and surprising to find we agreed on many issues of the day. All in all, I enjoyed my dining experiences on this cruise.
Cabin Review
Concierge Class 1
What a treat this cabin was! Nice, spacious shower, and plenty of room in both the cabin and the veranda. Have been on the Equinox and the Infinity, and liked the layout of this cabin much better. I especially liked the drawers and safe in one location. Closet was very roomy. Mattresses were a bit saggy, but after I got used to them, were OK and I slept very well. Liked the choice of pillows.
Port Reviews
Monterey
We rented a car in this port, and visited Pebble Beach and Carmel. I wanted to see the Carmel Mission and to spend a little time in downtown Carmel. We were able to eat a wonderful breakfast there, visit the Mission with very few others, and shop at one of the dockside jewelry stores. We had a wonderful morning and early afternoon and still had time to enjoy the solarium on our return.
