I was on the Equinox 2 years ago. There are things that have changed since then. So I'm going to talk about the Pro's and the Con's.
Con's
>The food in the main dining rooms and the Oceanview Cafe has really dropped in quality. I remember there being a far better selection in the Oceanview when I was on this ship in 2018. Used to love coming to the dining room for lunch when not in port. ...
My cousins and I took this cruise together because we wanted a relaxing vacation. We chose Celebrity because of the quality the cruise line provides. The dining is so much better than experienced on other cruise lines. The ship was beautiful, we had veranda cabins and the partitions were removed so our balconies connected and we enjoyed having our morning coffee served there everyday. The ...
We chose this cruise for price and to experience Celebrity. In addition, Qsine (a specialty restaurant featuring "Le Petit Chef") was a major draw. Qsine -the specialty restaurant - was absolutely fantastic and highly recommended.
The Oceanview Cafe buffet was decent, with some hits and some misses, but the quality of the food was high and enjoyable. Service there and in the main dining room ...
We chose this cruise so we could visit Key West. Great port for walking around. This was by far the best port of the itinerary. We enjoyed the ambiance of the town and stopped for a beverage at one of the many sidewalk cafes. The remaining ports, Cozumel, Costa Maya and Georgetown were less impressive and I would not bother going back to them.
The ship is amazing and the crew are ...
We have traveled with Celebrity often, but this is the first time on Equinox. We’ve been on sister ships. She has been updated with the Retreat amenities and appearance for those in suites. We experienced the usual wonderful service. I’m not happy with the new look for the days’ activities paper. It is in, by time, in sections, and it can be easy to miss things that occur at the same time. ...
I sailed the Equinox in 2019 and my TA found an amazing deal so we decided to sail again. Embarkation was a hot mess. I never got official word but the buzz was technical issues/computer issues. Lines backed up, but luckily I had priority boarding and was able to skip some of the wait. That meant the gangways onto the ship were packed and slowly moving.
The ship felt empty at times. It would ...
Hi to all Celebrity Cruisers!
I just wanted to write a quick review onboard the Celebrity Reflection for the Mardi Gras/Mexico cruise.
In one word, it was AMAZING!
A little background on my DH and myself so as to better understand my short review’s perspective. We are avid world luxury travellers in our 50’s with our grown children attending university. We usually do land based luxury ...
We used to love Celebrity but now when we sail with them, it's just OK. If I spend that much money, I should get more than fine. This was our twenty first Celebrity cruise and other than our upcoming cruise to the Galapagos on Flora, this is probably our final X cruise.
Embarkation: Very smooth. No special Coronavirus testing even though we cruised during the start of the crisis. We arrived at ...
We choose this cruise because friends of ours recommended/invited us along. I believe this was their 2nd time sailing on this itinerary and they raved about the Reflection so we were eager to give Celebrity a try!
We selected an AquaClass cabin which gave us access to the Blu Restaurant. The staff at Blu went above & beyond to take care of us. Shout-out to the Maitre D', Laurence, who was ...
SAILED THE REFLECTION which was in good shape out of Ft. Lauderdale to New Orleans, Grand Cayman and Cozumel . An older crowd with very few kids. The ship was close to sold out if not completely. Celebrity’s product while still pretty good has suffered as have the other lines with food quality price cutting and staffing restrictions. Serving staff; in restaurants and bars appear to be at a ...
