Overall it was a decent cruise. Good food in speciality restaurants. Great mixed drinks. Excellent service. Peel all that back, you’re left with very little.
Embarkation

Relatively quick boarding. However, I was stopped and was asked for paperwork proving I could take my son on the cruise. His father passed and nowhere was I informed I needed to bring the death certificate. Kicked off my cruise in a negative way.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
4 out of 5
The specialty restaurants are the way to go on this ship. Main dining was lacking.
Bistro on Five
5 out of 5
I ate here twice. Really good sushi and drinks
Silhouette Restaurant
2 out of 5
Overly crowded and took a while to get sat. The reason why I normally purchase a specialty dining package for a couple nights
Le Petit Chef at Qsine
5 out of 5
The meal was delicious and my 5 year old loved it. The service was also fantastic
Onboard Activities
1 out of 5
Maybe I am just too young (30) to enjoy the ame tired on this boat but it was extremely boring in sea days. The pools was packed likely because it’s the only place kids could hang out. The arcade was full of broken games.

Children's Programs

Much better on RCCL. I was hoping they were comparable because they are sister companies. They charge extra for everything and the facilities were boring.

Ship Quality

I’d have to try a different ship next time because the Equinox is a bit old and feels like it.
Cabin / Stateroom
3 out of 5
I stayed in a concierge suite. The perks honestly were not with the extra money. I’d book a normal balcony next time
Ship tip
If you are older and want to hang out with the 50+ crowd, celebrity is a CruiseLine for you. I would not recommend this for people with children under 21. I wouldn’t recommend it for my 30 year old self.
