Last year we sailed on the Celebrity Reflection Western Caribbean Cruise. We loved it so much we signed up for the Ultimate Caribbean Cruise while on the ship. The perks for signing up for a 'future cruise' are fabulous. The Equinox is a beautiful, well-appointed ship. It has everything you could possibly want. Our veranda cabin was very nice. The cabin is well maintained and very clean (even under the bed and sofa). Once you have a veranda cabin it would be hard to go back to just an oceanview cabin. Our cabin attendant, Dudi, did a wonderful job of keeping us in clean, dry towels and plenty of products. We chose Select Dining; however, immediately switched to a set time in order to keep our table by window and wonderful waitstaff and sommelier. Food was very good (too good, I put on three and half pounds!). We only went to the show twice. Both shows were very entertaining. The ports and shore excursions were a little disappointing. On St. Thomas our guide drove us around the island but did not provide commentary. The banana dacquris were 'world famous'. On St Kitts we took a tour of the island via train. The train staff did a great job but we couldn't hear them due to an inadequate sound system. Drinks, both plain and alcoholic were deilicious and plentiful. We really liked Barbados. Here we did the Green Monkey Encounter. Best excursion ever! So many monkeys and other wild life. Tours guides were engaging and friendly. In St Maarten we did the Afternoon Beach break to Orient Beach. Very nice. Loved Celebrity so much we booked ANOTHER cruise. Hoping to go to Alaska with Celebrity.
