this was our 5th cruise (and perhaps the last) with Celebrity. The "last" part of the comment was based on our last cruise which I felt like Celebrity had lost it's mojo. This cruise has renewed my faith in this carrier in delivering an above average to near premium experience. Maybe it was the ship as there are differences even in the same line, maybe it was the stateroom type (Sky suite), but ...
My boyfriend is a Royal Caribbean loyalist (Diamond level). I'm a Carnival frequent cruiser. (Platinum). We are now converts to Celebrity.
The food was excellent, tasty and varied. The service was even better. After the first 2 days, the staff learned our preferences and practically bent over backwards to accommodate us. The ship is impeccably clean and well maintained.
Cabin was clean and ...
This was the first cruise for both myself and my wife, I have to say it exceeded all our expectations.
We arrived in Miami from Ireland 2 days before departure, we stayed in the Marriott Biscayne Bay, a great choice. On the day before the cruise we did the full triple crown tour with Miami Tour Company, a wonderful day seeing as much as could of Miami. On departure day, we got an Uber car from ...
This was the first segment of our Back to Back cruise, ending with the Trans-Atlantic to Fort Lauderdale. We arrived in Barcelona several days early to give us a chance to sightsee and get used to the time zone. The flight from Orlando-Frankfurt was an incredible nonstop. We booked through Choice Air, getting a Lufthansa Premium Economy for a third of what Lufthansa had on their website. Premium ...
My husband and I were on Celebrity Equinox’s Oct 25th transatlantic crossing, leaving from Barcelona, going to Cartagena (Spain), Agadir (Morocco), Lanzarote (Canary Islands), Tenerife (Canary Islands), and ending in Ft Lauderdale. This was our first transatlantic crossing! We chose this itinerary because of the exotic ports and also because it was relatively affordable, even with the double ...
I love the Transatlantics...those sea days and 25 hour days are the best way to de-clutter your mind and let the stress go. Celebrity excels at trying very hard to exceed passenger expectations. The itinerary Barcelona, Cartagena, Agadir (Morocco), Lanzarote and Tenerife in the Canary Islands was the reason I chose this ship. Now the Equinox will be in the Caribbean all year around.
I was a ...
We have taken over 50 cruises (with a variety of cruise lines) and love Celebrity. This was our first voyage, however, on the Equinox, The service, staff and food exceeded our expectations. The ship was constantly being cleaned and it sparkled. Captain Nestoroudis gave great daily addresses from the bridge and had a good sense of humor. It was fun to see Alejandro (Cruise Director). We sailed ...
I chose this cruise because Equinox has always been my favorite Solstice class ship and I knew this would be its last European voyage. The service on this cruise was excellent as is the norm for Celebrity. The food served in the main dining room (table 218) was superb and my waitress Julia would be hard to equal. The food in the oceanview cafe was unbelievably diverse offering many choices of ...
This was the second segment of our Back to Back cruise. We were allowed to stay on the ship in Barcelona and we didn't change cabins, thanks to the Future Cruise folks who made the original reservation. There were something like 300+ B2B'ers. This was our third X cruise. We are Elite due to our RCL points. There were something like over 1000 Elites or above, resulting in paper vouchers for the ...
the service and the crew were wonderful shows were good the Captain and Alejandros were great personalties. our cabin was comfortable clean and well stocked food and service in the dining room was great. we felt water should be given in the cabin. the spa facilities were good except the prices were outrageous. ports of call were good except we did not care for Morocco. we would not hesitate ...
