Want to recharge but don’t have a lot of time? You always have enough time for island time with our new season of quick Caribbean escapes. Give us three to four nights, and we’ll give you the relaxing weekend—or midweek break—you deserve, complete with sun, sand, and plenty of turquoise water. With two ships offering quick Caribbean vacations from South Florida, including year-round getaways on Celebrity Reflection®, you have endless opportunities to reconnect with each other, your friends, and your family while you disconnect from it all. Unwind poolside while we keep the tropical cocktails coming. Treat yourself to a Caribbean-inspired spa treatment. Dine in a delicious new restaurant every evening. Dance the night away—or not. It’s your weekend getaway to do as much or as little as you want.

Want more time in the sun? Our 7- to 11-night Caribbean sailings are the perfect way to get more of a great thing. We’re bringing eight breathtaking ships to the Caribbean, including our newest game-changing ship that’s making its debut in the tropics, Celebrity Xcel℠. With exciting new sailings that visit more than 25 countries and 65 of the best places in the Caribbean, including the top-rated ABC islands (Aruba, Bonaire, and Curacao), we carefully designed these itineraries so you can choose the perfect island-hopping escape any time of the year.

Check out our new Caribbean itineraries, find your perfect escape, and get ready for the best time you ever had under the tropical sun.

Want an adventure unlike any other? With our new 2026 Galapagos Islands packages, you can have it all on the all-inclusive journey of a lifetime. Discover a volcanic island chain that rose from the depths of the ocean to become a living museum of plant and animal species found nowhere else on Earth. This extraordinary destination deserves an equally extraordinary way to experience it—and that’s where we come in. Step aboard our one-of-a-kind Celebrity Flora®, the first all-suites mega yacht designed exclusively for sailing the Galapagos Islands, and it’s the first and only ship here to receive a Forbes Travel Guide Four-Star rating. We’ll take care of every detail, every step of the way, so you can focus all your attention on this unfiltered glimpse into one of the most unique destinations in the world.

Why pick just one bucket-list wonder to explore when you can discover new ones every day? Spot ancient tortoises and blue-footed boobies in their natural habitat. Hike otherworldly volcanic landscapes. Get closer to nature than ever before. Our all-inclusive expedition experiences introduce you to the unique wildlife and history of each island you visit. One day, you’ll find yourself walking from white sand beaches to black lava flows. The next, you’re snorkeling among sea turtles, marine iguanas, sea lions, and penguins. Choose from eight in-depth itineraries specifically designed to give you the best of these incredible islands—just bring your sense of adventure and we’ll take care of the rest. Our vacation packages range from 10 to 16 nights and offer in-depth journeys to places like Quito, Lima, and Machu Picchu, an ancient Inca citadel that’s one of the world’s most awe-inspiring archaeological sites.

In this month’s member feature, we’re joining longtime Captain’s Club members Anne and Joe Marques as they sail the Galapagos and tour Machu Picchu on the vacation of a lifetime.

Anne and Joe’s first sailing with us was in 2009 aboard Celebrity Solstice® with Anne’s parents. They fell in love with everything we had to offer and became regular guests. While aboard Celebrity Infinity® in 2016, they saw a presentation about sailing to the Galapagos aboard Celebrity Xpedition® and were enamored, but believed it was out of their reach. A few years later, Anne and Joe were looking forward to their next sailing with us when they learned their cruise would be canceled as the pandemic brought the world to a standstill. However, the couple saw the bright side of the situation. Celebrity was offering guests 125% credit if they rebooked a future cruise instead of requesting a refund. The Marques saw a golden opportunity to book their dream cruise to the Galapagos—and even added a land tour to Machu Picchu.

They eagerly awaited their vacation in the months leading up to February 2022, calling it an ideal retirement gift for Joe, who completed a long career with the Navy in late 2021. The well-traveled couple had visited many unique destinations on cruises over the years—including Australia, New Zealand, Russia, Italy, and a memorable trip through the Panama Canal. But they knew from the moment they reached Celebrity Xpedition’s embarkation port until they boarded their plane home that this trip would eclipse them all.

Anne and Joe said the Galapagos were breathtaking, and the service on board was impeccable. “We were so impressed by the professionalism of the crew and staff, and their obvious enjoyment of what they do. I would be remiss if I didn't give huge kudos to the whole crew but especially to Dora, our cruise director; Fernando the maître d'; Carlos, the hotel manager; and our naturalists Alex, Angel, Edwin, and Farydee, who made our adventure so memorable,” they said.

At the ports where Celebrity Xpedition stopped, the couple’s days were filled with hiking, snorkeling, Zodiac rides, and immersive wildlife encounters. They returned to land, and made their way to Cusco, where they would begin the journey to Machu Picchu alongside their guides, Jenny and Edgar. “It turned out that there would only be four of us on the tour, so we felt like royalty. Edgar was so knowledgeable and eager to share his country's history with us. From the accommodations to the food to the people, everything was first class.  No matter where else our travels may take us, this was truly a trip of a lifetime,” they said.

We’re thrilled that Anne and Joe got to experience the amazing Galapagos with us. Next up for the couple are two sailings in Europe this fall aboard Celebrity Infinity® and Celebrity Apex®, and we can’t wait for our next adventures together.
