This was our first celebrity cruise and we choose this ship because of the ports of call and length of scenic cruising. The ports of call were good and we hit every port with mostly good weather. Our scenic cruising was equally as good with weather and ample time in paradise bay etc. We were able to sail around Cape horn in gorgeous sunlight. Falklands islands was beautiful etc. However for ...
My husband and I booked our first cruise with Celebrity because of the nice round-trip itinerary from Buenos Aires, most especially the scenic cruising in Antarctica. We did a South American cruise on Princess ten years ago in 2013, without Antarctica, when we also missed the Falkland Islands. We both have Elite status with Princess so that is our primary frame of reference, although our very ...
Never having been to Cabo San Lucas, we decided to book this cruise. Let me say the crew members are very polite, very friendly and very helpful. The food was adequate, but somewhat disappointing, especially the Le Petite specialty dinner which the main entree was beef ribs. There is something of a show that they project onto your plate during each course and although mildly amusing, it did not ...
A cruise where you cannot sit outside on a deck and relax is not a cruise. The loud music that was incessantly played by the pool pervaded every area of the deck. No one seemed to enjoy the music except maybe the crew. It was this weird techno rap with an annoying beat. You could not escape it as it was turned up to the max. The only reprieve was port days. The second we stopped in mazatlan we ...
This was a quick getaway to relax and unwind on a long weekend leaving out of Miami and going to Key West and Nassau with one full sea day
Cabin: interior, 1031
This was my only mistake, as a last-minute booking. I just chose a cabin on a high deck that was inside, and I definitely missed the balcony and I won’t do this again.
First impression: the staff is unbelievably efficient and ...
Celebrity as usual had a great package for this cruise. Boarding was well organized and very quick. The pre boarding application was the key and got the details completed prior to boarding. The ship was very clean and for the most part well kept. We did notice a bit more rust around the ship than usual on a Celebrity Ship.
Entertainment for the most part was very good. They did have ...
My husband Pierre and I took the 9-night cruise on Equinox from Fort Lauderdale to Bonaire, Curaçao, Aruba and Puerto Plata. This was my first time on Celebrity in 10 years and my husband’s first ever Celebrity cruise.
Overall, we had a wonderful time.
We flew in from Europe on the day prior to departure and stayed at the Hilton Marina Fort Lauderdale. We were able to see the ship arriving ...
My wife and I sailed on the Equinox in February 2023 on a nine day cruise to Aruba, Bonaire, Curacao and the Dominican Republic. The cruise was outstanding! We had an awesome time. Any criticisms mentioned below should be taken in that context.
This was our first cruise since before the pandemic, so there were a few changes, mostly good. About the pandemic—it is basically over as far as ...
We've been on 28 cruses now-- 15 on Celebrity. Very disappointed. We were on the Equinox 2010 first year. Nothing much different,
Problems---
(1)The "refurbishment" they claim not evident at all. Beds are very old and sag in the middle, Hallway carpets need a serious cleaning. Veranda rail needs varnish, and there is rust evident on all areas of Veranda.
(2) Food was mediocre and not ...
We chose the cruise based on: 1) timing (before OSHER classes resume), 2) # of nights -- we wanted more than three days but didn't need the full seven days in the Caribbean), 3) location (someplace warm), 4) geared toward adults, 5) other reviews (mostly great), and 6) price (very reasonable).
This is a refurbished ship (2018-2019) with about 2200 passengers (mid-size by today's ...
