We would do this cruise or any cruise with Celebrity Equinox. Everything was beyond our expectations and we will remember this experience forever. Sadly, within two days of the end of our trip, Hurricane Irma destroyed most of what we enjoyed. Thank you, Celebrity Equinox for a wonderful vacation!
Embarkation
5 out of 5
We were prepared to experience chaos, long lines and endless wait times. We were pleasantly surprised to leave our shuttle bus, walk straight into the building, have our passports and boarding passes checked, spoke with a representative who provided our sea pass cards and we were on board. Total time from start to finish was less than about 7 minutes! What a great process!
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
All dining areas were fully staffed by pleasant, helpful workers. All areas were attractive, exceptionally clean and offered a wide variety of excellent food. All beverage areas (bars) were also attractive and staffed by individuals who honestly cared about the needs of the passengers.
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
There are so many activities onboard the Celebrity Equinox that you cannot possibly take advantage of all of them. It is difficult to choose but we especially enjoyed the glass blowing demonstration, the "silent disco", the December '63 show, karaoke and the casino. Live entertainment was also enjoyable.
Entertainment
5 out of 5
All onboard entertainment was professional and thoroughly enjoyable. We were able to enjoy them each day.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
The onboard staff of the Celebrity Equinox is definitely 5 star! Every employee is personable, professional, smiling and quick to greet you. We were treated with the utmost respect and friendliness.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
The ship and all of its areas are immaculate.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
Our cabin was clean, comfortable and attended to daily by Edwin. We fully appreciate the lengths our cabin steward went to in order to ensure our comfort. We couldn't have asked for more.
Ship tip
Take advantage of all that is offered. The ship is loaded with opportunities to enjoy yourself.
Although St. Maaten appears to be a rather poor area, we were fortunate to have chosen a bus excursion with Tonya who was an excellent guide. Tonya is personable and fun-loving. She made the trip worthwhile. We was many sights and enjoyed all of it. We even got to stand at the fence and watch the airplanes come roaring in!
A very nice vehicle trip around the island with frequent stops for sightseeing, eating and shopping. This excursion is recommended by Celebrity and it was worth the time and money.
Due to the high volume of visitors (4 ships were docked that day), we chose to spend time on our own just walking and browsing through the town. We enjoyed ourselves but returned to the ship due to the congestion and extreme heat that day. Still, it was a worthwhile venture.
Our disembarkation was seamless. We waited in a comfortable area until called to disembark. We went straight through the process, no delays and directly to a bus that transported us to the Miami airport. Very well planned out.
