Caribbean Escape – Philipsburg & St. Thomas

7 nightsCelebrity XcelFort Lauderdale🇺🇸
From $982 per person

About this cruise

7 nights is that sweet spot where you actually start to relax. This sailing from Fort Lauderdale on January 30, 2028 visits Philipsburg, St. Thomas and Puerto Plata (Amber Cove) and doesn't try to cram in too much. You ease into this one, with a few sea days up front to find your rhythm before the 3 port calls start. It's a proper Caribbean tour: 3 countries, from Netherlands to Dominican Republic. Don't rush through Philipsburg, which is known as Two nations, one island, infinite beaches. Around 8 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. Celebrity Xcel (2025) is one of the newer ships out there, with current design and recent tech throughout. All told, 3 ports across 7 nights covers a lot.
