Review summary

Always a great time on the celebrity equinox. You were very proud to be part of the humanitarian effort in the Bahamas from the hurricane. It was our wedding Cruise. We loved visiting the island of Tortola

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Very smooth. From the moment we entered the terminal until we were on the ship took about 20 minutes

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
Main dining room and buffet was fantastic. We tried Murano the first night but was not overly impressed. Tuscan Grill on the last night was amazing, but it always is. Aqua Spa Cafe was a great change for lunch

The Spa Café

5 out of 5

Great selections if you want a light lunch and don’t want to load up at the buffet

Tuscan Grille

5 out of 5

Tuscan is always our favorite. Pork Belly app and Meatball app were amazing. The filet I had was one of the best ever

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Loved the pool and Persian Garden. We were looking forward to Gatsby night but it was eliminated by the new cruise director

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
The staff is always great in this ship. People who stood out for us though was our cabin steward Andi, special dining host Viktoria, and bartender Melbourne at the Mast Bat

Went to Magen’s Bay which we always love. Actually got married on the beach this trip

Tortola, British Virgin Islands

5 out of 5
Virgin Gorda Bathss was the tour we chose. Not to be missed

Nassau, Bahamas Did not visit port

We never went to Nassar. Instead we were diverted to Freeport to bring meals and bring supplies for hurricane victims. We were very proud to be part of this humanitarian effort. One day refund was given to us for missing Nassau but we donated it to the relief

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Quick and easy.
