Anticipation, Enjoyment and Disappointment

Celebrity Reflection, June 29th to July 09th 2018.

We choose this cruise because it included Santorini and Athens the two places that this cruise included but we had not visited previously.

The ship was full and included a rather larger number of children than normal. The children being children were loud, boisterous and played around in the lifts. Security guards were noted by their absence. The children also ran around some of the passageways we were informed by other guests.

Unfortunately there were also a number of issues with the toilets, in that you could not flush your cabin toilet which was rather more than an inconvenience (excuse the pun). This happened over a number of days.

Officers were also noted by their absence unlike previous cruises were they were quite visible.

Problems with neighbouring guests slamming their cabin door was also an irritation especially around 5am.

On a much brighter note the crew were as charming, efficient, courteous and friendly as ever, with some instantly recognising us from earlier cruises.

Cocktail Bar: Muni, Komang Adrian and Iwayan

Our dear friend Nyoman and last but by no means least our stateroom attendant Marites.

I should also mention our first captain who was very witty.

Just as we have come to expect; it was very clean, tidy and welcoming at all times.
Our attendant Marites ensured our cruise was going to be everything we expected and a little more.
Nothing was too much for her. It was the problem with the toilet that let it down unfortunately.
