Dining
As a Greek cruise line, you can expect Mediterranean cuisine in its tastiest and purest form. All dishes are freshly prepared onboard with seasonal and local ingredients. Each of the chefs have spent numerous years in Greek kitchens, allowing Celestyal to provide a gorgeous selection of Greek gastronomy.
When you dine with Celestyal you can participate in true Greek tradition, where you sit down for a feast with friends, finding community with others and most importantly creating unforgettable culinary moments. What's more, with three delicious meals included in your cruise fare, you won't even have to worry about picking up the bill at the end of dinner.
Destinations
Different from other mainstream cruise lines, Celestyal Cruises offer shorter itineraries as well as 7-day cruises, perfect for travellers wanting to see the best of the Mediterranean in just a few days. Cruising through Greece and the wider East Mediterranean (as seen on TV series Cruising With Jane McDonald), guests will get a whistle stop tour of this beautiful part of the world, with shorter times at sea, meaning that they even get the chance to visit 2 ports in 1 day. Celestyal Cruises offers a wide selection of luxury cruises to choose from, giving you the opportunity to choose the right one for you.

Customer reviews for Celestyal Cruises
Overall well organised budget cruise. The ship felt very empty because there were some large groups of Eastern Europeans who generally didn't mix with the westerners. Consequently some of the venues were deserted. Prom deck was always empty. We ate in the Smoked Olive and had excellent service from our waiters Jeffrey, Jerwyn and Yayang (wine). The maitre d' was usually around too. Buffet food was not as appealing but the chilli con carne was good and there was a good salad bar. The desserts looked interesting but we stuck with the fresh fruit due to dietary issues. Entertainment was low key to appeal to all on board and the dancers and singers were very good. The classical violinist was also good but perhaps not appreciated. Other bar entertainers were a little too loud for the spaces. Cabin was good but the cable for the hairdryer was weirdly short especially as it was secured in a drawer.
Great ship, with plenty of bars and restaurants. The entertainment team are really talented. Food was excellent. Staff were very attentive. Would definitely travel with Iglu and Celebrity cruises again.
The excursions were good & nicely organised, space was a little limited within the cabin itself. Internet connection not very good & expensive, spa facilities absolutely amazing, massages brilliant big shout out to Gina who is lovely & very professional.
Loved this cruise ship so much so thinking of booking a Mediterranean trip with them later in the year
