Celebrity Equinox Review
We can't get enough of Celebrity Equinox

Additional details
This was a repeat cruise for us. We enjoyed the Christmas cruise on Celebrity Equinox so much in 2012 we did it again in 2013 and we have already booked in 2014. The 2014 cruise on Equinox will span 11 days, span Christmas and New Years and go to the Western Caribbean instead of the Southern. So to say we are biased very positively toward this ship is an understatement. That is not to say we did not learn a few new things this year.
(Note: I just read a review here from a fellow passenger who was on this same cruise with us this year and I can hardly believe we were on the same ship. We encountered nothing that would confirm their negative comments.)
We are an American couple in our sixties who rise and retire early. Boring, maybe, but we love the Celebrity Equinox because it seems to be bustling at most any hour you want to bustle.
Cabin Review
Room is clean and with adequate space. Bathroom is small but very functional. Provided supplies are nice.The bed is nearer the bath and door. The bed is nice for a ship in the Queen conversion and is longer at the center than the sides (the foot of the bed curves). Sleepers with long legs must stay sort of centered.The deck is larger than most Concierge rooms because it is located port side on the part jutting out, but on the angle. The roof to the deck juts out about six feet so getting sun is hard, but you won't get wet in the rain. The door to the deck seals perfectly so you hear no wind or sea.There is one overhead outlet 110VAC (US) in the bath and two on the desk. So, there are some logistics involved in charging computers, iPhones, etc.TV is a nice size and receives international news and US (MSNBC, FOX, and CNBC), TNT provides the requisite Law and Order shows. Pay and free movies are available.I find Concierge on high floor and ship centered along with the nice room to be well worth the money.
