First off I want to state that I am a Diamond member and as of writing this not far from Diamond Plus.
The stops here were different which was one of the things I chose.
Curacao
Aruba
Cartegena Columbia
Grand Cayman
Cozumel
For those of you who do not know Curacao and Aruba are arid they are not tropical. So if you are looking for lush green vegetation it will not be there. ...
As always Celebrity delivered a good cruise. We were in a Celebrity and sure lots of perks and they were great. Ship is clean and well maintained since it refurbed not to long ago but she is aging and you can see.
Officers were all over the place making their presence seen to all passengers. Seem genuine in asking what our thoughts were.
Luminae was great. You can order off any menu. ...
Both good and bad – this was the 2023 repositioning cruise from Miami to Aruba, Bonaire and Curacao returning to Bayonne, NJ. Overall, the cruise was excellent however there are certainly some very significant highlights to mention, both pros and cons. First, we were in Aqua Class. Great location at the top of the ship Aft. No one above us and the buffet and outdoor bar below but the cabin was ...
I chose Celebrity for this year's cruise because after several Royal Caribbean sailings, I thought the dining, in-particular went downhill, and I wondered if it was time for me to "move up" to a premium cruise line. For a balcony cabin, I paid about $100 more per night on Celebrity than I normally do on Royal Caribbean, but I could not see where that premium pricing was put to use. There seems to ...
This was our 8th cruise. Second on Celebrity, last cruise April 2018. We are in our mid-60's, and active. We wore masks where ever there were crowds, took the stairs when ever we could, and went to fitness center 4 days out of 10. We did five excursions, one on each island.
Our overall experience was positive. Staff were always friendly. Nice to see cleaning going on everywhere. OVC had ...
This was our first cruise post Covid and we were so pleased with the ship and this sailing. This was our 5th Celebrity cruise and 25+ overall cruises.
Embarkation was very easy and quick we were on the ship by noon. Went directly to cabin and met our room steward Gusti, he was amazing the whole cruise. Always asked how our day was and kept our cabin clean and tidy.
We had a concierge cabin ...
My husband and I love tropical vacations and we wanted to explore the Southern Caribbean. This particular cruise went to a number of islands that we've never visited. We were a little nervous that a 10-day cruise, bookended by two days At Sea at the beginning and end might be a bit too long, but it ended up being perfect!
Embarkation couldn't have been easier. We were able to check in on the ...
Rhapsody of the Seas
Boarding the Ship
Barbados – Total chaos. No directions as to where to go, just sending passengers anywhere. It took hours. We’ve never had this problem before.
Miami – We were on a ‘back to back’ cruise but were told we had to get off the ship in Miami. The day before, we attended a meeting and were given instructions. We were told we would be checked in on the ...
We had not sailed with Regent since the covid outbreak. This was our 5th sailing with them, second time on the Navigator. We were shocked. Every Luxury, high end detail had been lowered, from the wine, liquor (did not even have everyday liquors, like Grand Marnier in stock), to the food. All management on board would listen to your complaints and problems, said they would take care of it, ...
We'd booked this well in advance after we had such a great experience on SS in June, 2022 in the Baltic - so, the anticipation was a long time in building. We're glad to say that it met or exceeded our expectations. The Navigator IS an older ship, which you may not notice most of the time; but when you're in the lower decks, including the Compass Rose dining room, the shakes and rattles are very ...
