I absolutely adore the Celebrity Equinox and can’t wait to cruise with them again in a couple of years! We booked the concierge level and will again in the future! I will say that I only saw a minor bonus as they treat all guests wonderfully, but the few extra perks were worth it
So happy to have Captain Kate and Jill, the hotel director leading us!
Embarkation
5 out of 5
We thought we got there early but so did everyone else! Long line but moved very quickly and efficient!
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
Simply the best food and servers in the industry! Even the buffet is top chef style! We chose to eat upstairs on a couple of evenings and were very happy! We had one dinner in the Tuscan Grill and wow.....just wow! Hard to return to regular life after being served like a millionaire!
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
The most fun was the silent disco! Everyone wears headphones while dj’s serve up different music! So one person mY be dancing/singing to the top of their lungs Dancing Queen and your friend is doing the same to Billie Jean! Hilarious!
Entertainment
1 out of 5
The love the Equinox theater! Great shows and comedians!
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Loved our cabin steward Willifred! Our consierge LaToya! We got to me the hotel director Jill when we were invited to sail away leaving St Thomas! We just asked for a photo and she co tinted to chat with us and Martin the cruise director joined in as well! What great attention they gave us! I brought up that we didn’t care for the fancy appetizers they sent to our cabin every day (European style) and said we are just as happy with cheese and crackers and a snickers bar (lol) and the next afternoon, a “butler” brought us a bottle of wine and a tray of fancy chocolates! Jill included a card about how nice it was chatting with us!
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
Very clean throughout the ship! You rarely saw an empty cup laying around! I finished a sandwich by the pool and as I layed the napkin on the plate someone was taking it from me! I laughed and said where did you come from...and he smiled and said he was watching me and knew I was finishing! At the same time another person came up from the other side picking up an empty cup! Crazy good service!
Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
Very nice and same type too we had on our previous cruise! After a discussion with Jill, the hotel director, she told us that the Equinox will be undergoing a refresh/remodel in 2019! The ship will be 10 years old and although it was clean and still very nice, it is showing her age!
Ship tip
Talk to the servers, bartenders, stewards and overall the staff! They are just wonderful and truly want to serve you and give you their very best attention!
We got a taxi with 2 other couples and went to Orient beach. Didn’t know that we were going to the nude beach but what a beautiful beach
I suppose we should had paid more attention as the other 2 couples didn’t know where we were going either! Lol
But hey....it really was ok...different and we can laugh and say we have been to a nude beach. We didn’t shed our clothing (although my husband briefly took a nude swim)!
Sadly......my new iPhone was stolen right before boarding the ship. I laid it down (was only taking photos and it was in airplane mode) to try on a T-shirt in the marketplace behind the courthouse. I walked away and within 2 minutes I ran back and it was gone. My husband confronted a local store owner who ran away as we ran to the tent but to no resolution. We spoke to a constable who was sad to hear of this and promised to “shake him down” but of course you know it is gone. Passcode so no good to anyone.
The sea swells were 6 foot high and since we were being tendered it was dangerous. So, captain Kate announced we couldn’t port here. So an unexpected day at sea.
Was extremely disappointed in Nassau. However, I had friends that before we left had said 7N,ex’s you go to Atlantis there is nothing to see and do...they were right!
