My husband and I decided to try a summer Caribbean cruise after 40 cruise. We decided on the Equinox, as the Solstice class is our favorite class of Celebrity ships. We flew in the day of the cruise, which is also something we typically never do, and IMO will not do again as it is too stressful. The ship is in great shape- she had a mini renovation recently. However it was very disappointing. ...
Wife and I decided to book cruise since the Hard Rock vacation didn’t turnout very good last year at Punta Cana with her getting bad sick.
As title says this was our 1st so nothing to compare to other than resorts we stayed at. Overall it was a very good vacation. Our room attendant was top notch along with our waiters in the dining room we ate dinner at. I’ll just give review step be step as ...
This was our 3rd time on the Equinox in the last 5 years, and we still love her (enough to book #4 for 7/3/20)....but......things were/are definitely different than before.
We were on the 7/13-7/20 Western Caribbean jaunt with a total group of 9 people. Hopefully my review will focus on the opinions on my wife and myself. We both are in our early fifties, and overall, this was our 7th cruise. ...
We are not new to cruising, but this was our first Celebrity cruise. We are sold on the brand. Despite the fact that we can't wait to sail with Celebrity again, five stars would be an indication that there is no room for improvement or growth. If I could, I would rate our overall experience 4.5. We enjoyed three aft concierge class balcony cabins on the ninth deck. The adjoining/connecting cabin ...
Just finished up a week on the Celebrity Equinox- Eastern Caribbean Itinerary and it was, overall, a great experience. However, I would be less than honest if I didn't also state that the cruise fell a bit short of expectations. Following is my effort to provide an honest and fair assessment of the Equinox and our experience on her.
For reference- my wife and I are 50's/60's and have sailed ...

Equinox western Caribbean 6-29-19 – Aqua class cabin# 1560
Travel and embarkation:
We arranged to fly to FLL the day before the cruise. We originally had booked a 5:30 AM departure the day of the cruise on Southwest using points. But later we decided a 5:30 flight meant a super early start and ...
This was our third cruise on Equinox--our fifth with Celebrity. Embarkation was fast and painless and in a new change, our room keys were waiting in the slot outside our rooms. The just took our picture at check in. We were allowed to board at about 1045 and staterooms were available by 1 pm. The ship was freshly out of drydock sporting a dazzling new paint job, new carpets and many interior ...
Well just returned from a 7 day on the Celebrity Equinox. Let’s talk about the positive notes first. Nice ship. Excellent crew, unbelievable Captain. She was at all the major functions and saying bye to everyone when we all left. The very first captain I ever saw at all the shows and around the ship greeting everyone. Our OV cabin was better than the one we had on the Reflection. This time the ...
My DH and myself decided in March to take a cruise for our anniversary. We have sailed on the Celebrity Summit twice in the last three years and really love the Celebrity experience. We were looking for a cruise that had Key West and Grand Cayman in the itinerary and this sailing worked for our summer schedule. Since we have not been on this particular ship before, we didn't notice any changes ...
We chose this cruise because we wanted to try Celebrity. We are Emerald level on Royal and heard it was a step above. The food was about the same except the specialty restaurant was superb. We missed the quality of entertainment that Royal provides. We loved the coffee shop and desserts there. The ice martini bar was a lot of fun. We missed the pizza centrally locates on Royal and ice cream at the ...
