Review summary

We have just returned from the Southern Caribbean Cruise on the Celebrity Eclipse. We had not visited any of the islands and were interested in comparing them.  The terrain is very similar on all of them - volcanic mostly with hills and beautiful beaches.  Not much of a "downtown" on any except Williamstad in Curacao which has lovely colored houses and buildings, walkable areas from the ship and many cafes for sitting and watching the world go by.  Our local tours were very good, booked through , mostly in small vans for 5-6 people.  My favorite part of the ship experience was the hot glass shop, sponsored by Corning Museum of Glass with three excellent glass blowers demonstrating their techniques.  The pieces are raffled off during the cruise with an auction at the end for special pieces.  Great weather, great trip!

Always cleaned quickly, re-supplied and enough storage space and closet. We enjoyed the balcony on most days. Cabin attendant always available.
