After a horrendous pre cruise experience due to their inept flight department we were pleasantly surprised with our cruise. The flight department arranged our post cruise extension as pre cruise in error. When they were advised of their mistake they went back and verified the phone conversation and then wanted to offer onboard credit rather than fix the the problem which they did 30 days later ...
We have now cruised with Celebrity 13 times...We have always enjoyed the many features of the Cruise Line. But this time, we were a bit disappointed. The Edge is a beautiful ship; however, it lacks some of the features that we find so appealing in the Solstice class ships. For example, there are few quiet areas in the ship. Nothing like the Ensemble lounge or a library area or the Sky lounge. ...
We have sailed Celebrity before and we do like the line. We sailed Princess, Holland of America and Norvegian, but we always return to Celebrity. We always wanted to do a transatlantic and the time was perfect coming from a few days in Barcelona. We stayed at the casa del mar near the port and this was very nice the owners are wonderful. Embarkation was smooth we booked a suite it was our first ...
We chose this cruise as it visited a number of ports we hadn’t visited before- Corsica, Elba, Sardinia, Valencia as well as ports we had visited before that we didn’t mind visiting again- Menorca, Majorca and Barcelona. We have visited a number of the Mediterranean ports a few times and find Azamara tend to have more of the non-mainstream ports which we enjoy.
We had been on a cruise with ...
We chose this cruise for the itinerary, specifically our first port of call, Portoferraio, Elba. The ship docked at many smaller islands and the weather was perfect - warm and sunny each day. This was our first time on Azamara, having been on over 25 cruises over the years, mostly on Celebrity. We knew the ship was older and would not have the same amenities as newer and larger ships, and this ...
We booked our 9-Day Mediterranean Cruise for October 21-30, 2022 starting from Rome to Lisbon in January 2021, bundled with air fare and travel insurance/protection. It was so well worth it and the cruise was indeed wonderful!
Air Transportation: With Carnival’s Fly to Fun, I got to choose the dates and airlines that we want to arrive in Rome, and to fly out of Lisbon. It was very easy and ...
I chose this cruise a surprise gift for my husband's big birthday. After celebrating with his cousins who live in Rome, we hopped the train in Termini to Civitavecchia. We were excited to see new places like Elba, Sardinia, Menorca, and Corsica and revisit Valencia, Palma de Mallorca and Barcelona. We were blessed with sunny days and temperatures in the high seventies. I was so relieved to ...
This was our first Celebrity cruise experience. We took this cruise with my parents and grandparents, primarily choosing this itinerary because of its stop in Israel (and because of the Apex!) We were excited to explore this new and innovative ship. It was definitely one of the most beautiful ships in which we have sailed and it had some unique features (i.e. The Magic Carpet!)
We were lucky to ...
We have taken many Celebrity cruises. I was looking for a cruise without many sea days and being end of season where I really wanted to go wasn’t available London Scotland Ireland so I guess I finally just went with this which wasn’t smart on my part! Been to Rome several times but this time it was so crowded wasn’t enjoyable.If you don’t have reservations for sights you can forget it!Everywhere ...
Just disembarked off the Grandiosa, stayed in a Yacht Club deluxe suite. Cabin 18014 was below pool deck, only heard moving of chairs once early in the morning.
The service in the YC was good. Cabin was always cleaned promptly. Restaurant wait staff was good. We had the same waiter each night. Bartenders in Top Sail were great.
The bad- entertainment was a major disappointment. Strings was ...
