Review summary

A wonderful time will do celebrity again in the future. Very nice ship, very clean and thought out, great crew, good food and many bars and places to eat. What else can a person ask for??? My first 12-day cruise, wasn't sure if I would be ready to get off after a few days but I enjoyed each day because of the staff and the great people on board...

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Getting on the ship did not take long at all, yes there were lines but they moved efficiently and smoothly. A glass of cold champagne was waiting for you as you entered the ship....GREAT!!!!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
The main dining room and the specialty restaurants on the ship were amazing. The food was good and plentiful, We had Rizzolo and Dan as our servers in the main dining room, if you get them your in for a great time, such nice guys who bent over backward to give us great service. Maurano was the highlight of our trip, as we were celebrating a friends birthday they made sure everything was memorable.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Always something to do on this ship, you can be as busy as you wish or just find a place to relax and watch the waves..I choose the latter....lol

Entertainment

4 out of 5
entertainment was good, the shows were O.K., some good and some not as good...the DJs were great though...you can find them anywhere on the ship at different times..be sure to check out Victor Cruz, he's the best.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Best staff on any ship I've been on thus far, everyone gave you a big welcome and were as helpful as they could be.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Easy to find your way around on this ship, Beautiful layout and the ship was in great shape.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
We had a handicapped cabin and it was great, my first time not having a balcony but it was not as bad as I thought it would be. Alex out room steward did a great job making sure we had everything we needed.

Ship tip

Don't pay attention to any negative reviews about Equinox, form your own opinion. Plan on having a great cruise and you will, I met some amazing people and will definitely cruise with Celebrity again.

So nice you enjoyed your Celebrity cruise. I keep reading good things about them and they are on my experimentation list. Interesting about NOT wanting to get off the ship after a few sea days. I would have thought folks would want to get off. I will be doing a shorter version of your cruise later this Winter. Only 8-days. Glad you enjoyed your time aboard.
