Cruise Description
14 Night Cruise sailing from Miami roundtrip aboard Celebrity Eclipse.
Since Celebrity EclipseSM joined our fleet in 2010, she has dazzled and amazed even the most well-traveled cruisers. Like her Solstice Class sisters before her, Celebrity Solstice and Celebrity Equinox, she showcases spectacular vistas with 85% of all staterooms having sweeping veranda views. Celebrity Eclipse hosts QsineSM, a dining venue with a unique and playful approach to familiar dishes from around the world, and Celebrity iLoungeSM, a hip, modern Internet café offering guests what they have asked for – easy access to the Internet, inspiring classes and latest tech gadgets. Add the fresh green grass on the top deck’s Lawn Club and the incredibly pampering services in AquaSpa®, and you may never want to set foot on land again.
Highlights of this cruise:
Oranjestad
Aruba is probably the all-time most-used synonym for vacation. The capital city, Oranjestad, is a chic blend of Dutch and Caribbean influences, which can be found in everything from the cuisine to the architecture. The charming boutiques of Seaport Village and the tropical gardens in Wilhelmina can be pleasant diversions.
Willemstad
No one can blame early European settlers for building so many forts on Willemstad, Curaçao. One look at this former Dutch colony and you will want to claim it all for yourself. Fortunately, the island of Curaçao and its capital city now belong to all of its inhabitants. Drive on the fabled Queen Juliana Bridge, which soars 185 feet above the tepid waters between Punda, Otrobanda and Schottegat. Or stop at the Old Market – Marche. It’s casual, and you can enjoy just-caught fish and local delicacies all grilled fresh right before your eyes.
St Georges
When the phrase “sugar and spice and everything nice” was coined, surely they must have been referring to Grenada. This lovely island is home to sugar and spice plantations and even a rum distillery or two. You can tour these working plantations and see how the bounty of Grenada’s rich soil is grown, processed and cared for in the present day.
Castries
Famous for its twin peaks shaped by the upheaval of a now extinct volcano, St. Lucia is one of the truly unspoiled islands in all the Caribbean. Here you’ll find a variety of landscapes and eco-systems not found anywhere else in the region, including rain forests, mountains and beaches that truly deserve the “pristine” designation.
St Johns
Some people seek to climb every 14,000-foot peak in North America. Others spend years hiking the Appalachian Trail. Well, St. John’s offers a different type of challenge – one that can test the limits of beach towels and sunblock like few can. With 365 beaches to explore, you will need to pace yourself. Rest assured that each beach is as beautiful and captivating as the last.
