Another great cruise with Celebrity. Wanted to try the Equinox since it has the highest ratings in the fleet. When we booked was hoping to have Captain Kate, but she had been moved to the Edge. Ship had a refresh, but apparently was not completed due to a crane accident in Grand Bahamas sending ship to Spain to be redone instead of the Bahamas. New colors in rooms are very calming.
Embarkation
5 out of 5
Improved Embarkation. Sea Pass on your door, early drop off your carry-on bags much more efficient.
Ship experiences

Vinod in Ble is great server. The Assistant staff needs to improve refills on water and coffee. Oceanview buffet food was great. Miss the crackers by the cheese.

Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
Mattresses and linens are wonderful. Like the new color scheme. Miss the foot stools on the balcony, the lounge chair takes up too much room. When on the balcony all you heard was people scraping the furniture from one place to another. Love the size and storage of the bathroom.
Considering they were flooded two days before we got there from Karen they did a good job cleaning up downtown. First time docking at Crowne Bay. Easy access to downtown on shuttle.
When scuba diving and reef still healthy and lots of fish. Not much to do in downtown area. Karen had knocked out the power downtown and water had messed with shoreline. There was a great art gallery, we did not go upstairs due to lack of power and the heat.
Went on Canopy tour. They lied about water on the course. First and last time zip lining. I am 5' 3" and too short to be easily buckled in and up hooked after.
We took tour to Andromeda Gardens and east side of island. Marco Polo was a great guide. Seeing east side rough surf and kids jumping into pools was fun. Glad to see how Barbados was formed.
