We had been on 15 cruises with Royal Caribbean and decided to give Celebrity a try. We were expecting it to be a step up and it was, but not in all areas.
We knew the Equinox was an older ship that had been refurbished, so that was no surprise. The exterior of the ship showed some age, but the interior didn't look dated. The furnishings were a bit nicer than on the Royal ships. Our cabin ...
This was our 6th cruise with Celebrity. We are in our eighties and have cruised 19 times. This was a cruise to the Dutch Islands of the Caribbean. As usual we made use of an outstanding cruise consultant with Expedia Cruises.
All the necessary information is on the Celebrity web site. The Celebrity App is really needed to avoid confusion. However, in our case, going cruising is ...
We won this cruise so saying anything except glowing reviews feels pretty ugly. But, because you want candor, here goes: this was largely a booze cruise which prompted less decorum than I would have liked. As a 55 yr old woman excited for a little unexpected getaway with my hubby, I wasn't necessarily surprised with the party-nature of many passengers. But, what I wasn't expecting was the nudity ...
This was a family trip that I was told I would attend. I only ever went on a cruise one other time(carnival) really didn't like that one as I felt it was for much younger folks than myself. This cruise was a little different. I liked most of the shows and on board entertainment. The food was ok, only used the buffet so rarely had actually hot food. The cabin I was in was pretty small. It was okay ...
This was our 6th Princess cruise. The last one we were on was one of the first after covid, 700 passengers
We has our flights arranged through ez air. We were among last to board, but we did board!
First time of rain in Ft Lauderdale, first port in Cays was cancelled so we were at sea til Wednesday. First 2 days it seemed staff was discombobulated. Food was ok but nothing special. We ...
This was our 4th Princess cruise and we really wanted to see the Panama Canal. The Ruby was a good choice, not too big. We know that it will always be a struggle to get a pool deck lounge chair or a table on the pool deck. The deck above the pool usually had lounge chairs available. The Panama Canal passengers were mostly over 50, many with walkers or scooters.
This time we chose a mini-suite ...
Just got off the Celebrity Equinox (10 day cruise out of Fort Lauderdale to Aruba, Grand Cayman, and Curacao) and thought I would post my review while everything was still fresh!
We did the Retreat Class (Celebrity Suite) which was remarkable and in our opinion worth the extra price.
The service on this ship is another level. Every single staff member seemed to want to make your cruise ...
We have only sailed with Celebrity Cruises (6 in the last 10 years). It’s sad to see that post-Covid, despite investing in refurbishing their ships, they’ve taken away some of the things that made it a 5-star experience.
No longer are you greeted with champagne or a mimosa on entry. In AquaClass rooms, no more daily tea, fruit or canapés. I’m told that’s for concierge class now but AquaClass ...
This was a boring and dull experience with an invisible Captain George. Saw him the first night and again at Captains Club event...then who knows where he was or what to expect each day of the trip?? This was the opposite from our experience with Captain Leo on the Eclipse - so friendly, visible and informative.
Cruising in February to the Caribbean on this ship was so disappointing - a real ...
After reading dozens of reviews here about the Equinox, I echo just about everything mentioned. The ship is in excellent shape for being 15 years old and the lack of even a single outlet on either side of the bed was a sore point with my wife and I. Even the two outlets on the desk fell way short of what we required. Thankfully Celebrity fixed this on the newer ships such as the Beyond, which we ...
