Celebrity Millennium April 9 - April 16, 2006 Eastern Caribbean Executive Summary We were a family of four on Spring Break. We got a great rate on a pair of inside cabins. The ports were fun, but were not necessarily our favorite Eastern ...
Pros: Excellent entertainment and activities for adults! Cons: The Millennium needs of refurbishment; sadly, she is showing a lot of wear and tear!
17 February 2008 Voyage Review of Celebrity’s Millennium My husband and I cruised aboard the Millennium the week of 17 February 2008. While the cruise was enjoyable, it was not exactly what we had expected of the Millennium or Celebrity. That said, ...
In a Nutshell The Millennium is a beautiful, modern ship with comfortable staterooms and superb service. With on-board entertainment and activities including a Harpist, a piano bar, an acappella group, a 'big band' group, a 'Newlywed and Not-so ...

Pros: Quietly elegant ship with a friendly and professional staff Cons: Food did not meet expectations. Wine (so-so) was more expensive than usual.

Pros: Olympic Restaurant Cons: The DJ In The Nightclub
I sailed on the Millennium October 28th, 2001. This was a 7 night Eastern Caribbean Cruise roundtrip from Fort Lauderdale. The ports included San Juan, St. Thomas, Dominican Republic, and Nassau.
Pros: wonderful facilities, crew was friendly, entertainers were good, a lot to do Cons: too many people on board, expensive shore excursions
I have fallen in love with cruising after my many cruises abroad, most with Holland America. I, unlike many other people though, won't go on a specific ship because I like it. When I travel I want to see things so I will take whatever ship has the best...
Pros: Very Elegant, Excellent Crew, the Olympic Restaurant Cons: Only one week long
OK, for those of you who follow all my epinions, you guys must think I have a ton of money to spend on cruise ships, or just nutty to the point that I love to be at sea. Well you all partly right. Being 29, this is my 6th cruise. Why so many? I have...
Pros: Beautiful new ship, good size cabins, excellent spa and health club, wonderful, attentive service Cons: Buffet restaurant menu not very imaginative, expensive spa treatments, 8am check-out time
I know, I know - I am supposed to write about the Celebrity Millennium in this section, but at 'press time' no separate category for the Infinity exists. But because the two ships are so similar, I thought much of the information would be valuable to...

Just got back from our third cruise on Celebrity - first on a Millennium-class ship. Overall it was a pretty relaxing vacation and we got a good deal on this cruise. In the final analysis, however, Wonderful Wife and I were quite disappointed with...
Pros: Luxurious and comfortable Cons: Not a party ship -- is that a con?
You’ve heard cruise ships called “floating hotels?” Well, I’d call the Millennium a floating Ritz Carlton. With 10 cruises under my belt, I can easily say that this ship places first on my list for beauty and comfort. Yet, we paid no more than a typical...
Pros: Great crew, great food, spectacular once-in-lifetime ports. Cons: Shore excursions were expensive (to be expected).
Trip of a Lifetime
My new wife and I started out our married life together by taking the 12 day Celebrity Millenium cruise from Istanbul, Turkey. It stopped in some very exciting locations, the Pyramids of Egypt, Athens, Greece, Barcelona, Spain,...
Pros: Beautiful ship, great ports Cons: Amsterdam, cruise entertainment staff
My wife, daughter and I were fortunate enough to be on the maiden sailing of the Millennium on July 1, 2000. The ship was just awesome! I would like to say more about it but AWESOME is the only word that comes to mind. We boarded in Amsterdam at a new...
Pros: Well-prepared food, nice ship, no loud party atmosphere Cons: They booked us incorrectly, Delay getting on the boat
This past October, my family and I flew to Milan to begin a cruise on the Millennium that I had been looking forward to for almost a year (even before the ship was finished being built!). The only European destination that I had been to before the trip...
Pros: Beautiful ship, great food & service! Cons: None!
I have been on over 100 cruise ships and I thought that the Celebrity Millennium was one of the best!
(And I've sailed on everything from Radisson and Crystal to Carnival and Royal Caribbean.)
Pros: Being on the Ocean.
Finding food was always easy. Cons: I'm not in favor of vacations ending
Ship: It's old enough to show some wear but it's a pretty ship. There were a lot of cool places to hang out. Our favorite was the solarium with the warm salt water pool and hot tubs. It was adult only. Second favorite was our cabin and third was the ...
Having read some wonderful reviews I was looking forward to a cruise of a lifetime. I booked Concierge Class, (don't bother)nobody on Millennium quite understood what was included) First day was treated to a prison style meeting with Matre'd Over 50 un ...
We selected the Celebrity Millennium ("Taste of the Caribbean" cooking theme cruise, February 2005) for an upscale cruise experience and quality dining and were VERY happy with our choice. We've been on several other cruises, and this was without a doubt ...

Pros: Good massage at spa, good waiter at dinner Cons: service, attitude, ship cleanliness
I travelled the millennium Nov 30- Dec 7th. Stops were Casa de Campo, San Juan, St Thomas, and Nassau. Casa de Campo, which is in the dominican republic, was a waste. Half the passengers didn't get off the ship, because they had read or knew it ...
Pros: Gorgeous ship, good consistent food, staff operated like a Swiss watch. Cons: Very crowded pool areas Ports of call were typical. VERY international guests.
I am the VP of a company that provides high end training to the best hotels in the world. Unfortunately the staff of the Millennium has no needs for my services. I was floored by the level of service and attention of the Millennium staff. A 7 day ...
Pros: good food,
reasonable liquor prices,
relaxed atmosphere,
pools,
great service,
cleanliness Cons: slot machines didn't pay,
mildly disorganized embarkation & disembarkation process
My wife and I just returned from the seven day Caribbean tour and we had a relaxing vacation on this boat. We felt that this trip was a great overall value for the money.
There are plenty of activities, the boat is huge and the staff is...
Pros: There are none Cons: If you are thinking of sailing Celebrity, please think again!
My 10yo son was physically battered while on cruise, by a passenger, there was however, an employee who saw the incident and walked by as if nothing happened. My husband had to stop him and then the employee let the female that had just hit my son leave. ...
Pros: good cabin with balconies Cons: too too big. ugly ship
We decided to try brand new very large ship for first time. It was the route we had wanted to do for years visiting the Baltic capitals especially St Petersburg Russia. the route, stops and weather were good during Aug 2000
This was my third cruise, prior to this I had booked on Carnival and took 7-day cruises to the Mexican Riviera as well as Alaska. Initially, I had reservations about taking a 14-day journey as I thought it would cater primarily to older passengers. For ...
Pros: Good entertainment crew onboard
Excellent food. Cons: Poor shipboard and inter-company communication gives poor service!
I went on the TransAtlantic sailing of the Millenium for two weeks on the september 30, 2001 departure from Barcelona. I have cruised many times before RCL and was always pleased with great food and service (Grandeur, Vision, Rhapsody). I expected that...
Pros: Beautiful ship, great food and highest quality service Cons: Vacation was not long enough
I traveled on the Celebrity Millennium in April 2003. I have been on many cruises but this was my first time on the Celebrity cruise line..and I was not disappointed.
The cabins were huge...even if you do not get one with a balcony. Our...
Pros: Nice ship, good crew Cons: False Imprisionment is a possiblity.
I just returned from a 12 day cruise on Millennium from Venice to Greece, Rome, France and Spain. In the middle of the cruise, I was dehyrated and required the medical attention of the ship. I actual had a 102 degree fever and was shaking. After ...
Pros: -just about everything Cons: - anyone under 18 wern't allowed in the aqua pool, spa, or fitness centre
when i look back on my celebrity Millenium cruise, i am more than satisfied. Me, my mom,my dad, my grandmother, my cousin, my uncle, and his girlfriend went on a 7-night eastern caribbean cruise around christmas time, on the millenium. below are some ...
The brand new Millennium is a bust. The most unfriendly ship I have ever sailed on (in 54 cruises). The crew acted as if the passengers were an annoyance. We traveled with two other couples on this 10 day Mediterranean cruise. We all stayed in...
Pros: Outstanding service and food. Cons: Guest Relations, if you needed them, was difficult to understand, given dialect.
The Alaskan cruise, via the Celebrity Millenium, was excellent. The food was very good, and the employees were very friendly and responsive. The only issue that I had was the Guest Relations area. The employee that we encountered was very difficult to understand (dialect) and she was visibly impatient with us in attempting to understand what she was saying. (She obviously could not reconcile that SHE was the impediment to communication.) All other staff members were great. They work so hard and for so many hours without displaying any level of apathy or uncaring. It was quite the opposite... they were so gracious and they went out of their way to please and serve. The embarkation AND the disembarkation process went extremely smooth and it was incredibly organized. With almost 2,000 guests aboard, one would have never thought it possible to have such an excellent process. Our stateroom was impeccable, with the veranda. All guests were treated like royalty!
Celebrity Millennium - a disappointing cruise overall by simpogal ,Sep 03 '05
Pros: Service was very good. Cons: overrated cruise ship
I was quite disappointed with the Celebrity Millennium on my Mediterranean cruise in August , 2005:
1. Ship is "tired" and old, needs renovating
2. Cabin is not clean. Very dusty when we checked in, hair on the balcony floor not vacuum cleaned. I suspect there are bed mites since my allergies act up and my nose stuffed up every night I sleep. (could be the pillows)
3. The wet towels supplied after an excursion when we reboard the ship smelled foul.
4. There was only a midnight one night out of the 12 night cruise, no 24 buffet . Only you can have after 10 pm is pizza or pasta.
5. The air arrangement is the worst by the Cruise company. They bought the cheapest ticket, and charged us premium, and then routed us through 3 countries before getting us to the destination when there are direct flights available. Our luggage was of course lost when we arrived at the port to board the ship.
6.We paid the extra charge to the Olympic restaurant - food was worse than the main restaurant. .Not worth to pay the extra.
