First - we were very surprised and privileged to be on this particular trip: This was in celebration of International Women's Day and our bridge crew (as well as many department heads) were all women. They refereed to themselves as Oceans 27. Our Captain Kate McCue and her staff were always present throughout the cruise, ready for a quick discussion. Captain Kate also did a Q&A about her ...
We had been looking forward to our trip on the edge as loyal celebrity cruisers but I have to say it was not the best. I loved our room and Blu restaurant but there are so few venues and the same 3 groups just kept rotating thru the 3 venues. Gone is the world class bar and the grand lobby bar so the only venues are the martini bar, the club and the Eden. Don't think I'll do the edge again but ...
The Equinox boasted a huge remodel in 2019, but it didn’t show in reality. I’m thinking the remodel must have adhered to the suite class rooms and private areas. The median age of cruisers was easily 60+ and the entertainment/activities seem to cater to this group. Couldn’t enjoy the deck areas very much being that cruisers were allowed to smoke EVERYWHERE outside on public decks. Many of the ...
We have cruised with Celebrity once before on the Equinox and absolutely loved it. This time we brought along our brother and sister-in-law. They are hooked now as well. We love this ship, it's never too crowded, always very clean, the veranda cabins are spacious enough for the two of us. The beds never bother our backs (which is saying something because most hotels do).
The main ...
We picked the Celebrity Equinox Eastern Caribbean Cruise of Feb. 29 - Mar.7th because of the itenerary plus us having had very good experiences on Celebrity ships before. We really like the ship as it was easy to get around on plus it was very well maintained by the crew. We found all of the crew very friendly and especially liked our stateroom attendant and our dining room waiter and his ...
We have sailed enough on Celebrity to attain "elite" status and have always enjoyed our experiences. We chose to sail "Edge" because my wife really wants the experience. We traveled with friends (another couple). BTW, Edge is really an adult only ship as there seems little to do for anyone under the age of 18.
The ship common areas are unique and well done. The stores on board are all high ...
The Edge is beautiful- VTCruising was correct! Our S-1 cabin was lovely and we had great service from a very attentive and hard working asst room steward and butler.
Luminae dining was outstanding- almost Michelin level- better than Luminae on the Reflection in 2018 and better than Crystal Serenity in 2016. Service was almost over the top.
Raw on Five (sushi) was also excellent. Grand Bistro ...
The ship is beautiful...high end and classy. Tiffany, Cartier shops.....a walking track that is two floors so that there is an incline- 4 times around is a mile.....amazing art work and sculptures.....Eden - a beautiful space to meet with friends or just to meditate. At night Eden has a cirque du soliel type show. The infinite veranda was spacious and We loved opening the window to hear the ocean. ...
We've just completed the second of two back to back cruises. This review should be considered as an amplification of the first review we posted. Our opinion of the ship hasn't changed.
The deck area for non-suite passengers is very overcrowded with loungers often jammed tightly uo against each other in rows of 12 or 15. I suggested in the previous review that this probably was due to the ...
The ship is absolutely beautiful. We chose a cabin with a porthole which was very nice. Service was outstanding. Wonderful to see the captain not afraid to pinch in and help out in the coffee bar. Food in dining room was just ok but service exceptional. Ocean view Cafe was good. Service in there was top notch. Bar service at times was not great. We had premium liquor package and had to watch ...
