I can never provide sufficient Kudos to the staff. I marvel at how they take on so many jobs and do them so well. Room Steward and Butler were each very helpful, always friendly and attentive. I really appreciate their work and support.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Always clean and staff were visible and handled any situation on the spot. Love the layout of the Equinox ... reminds me of cruises taken years before. A warm and friendly environment with places / nooks to relax, read or even NAP !!

Cabin / Stateroom

Most enjoyable with lots of room, great layout and awesome view from windows / balcony. VERY comfortable and welcoming after an active day / night.

Ship tip

Be very respectful of the work done by your crew / service staff .......Be prepared for a most enjoyable experience. Also be prepared to see some "have" and "have not" sections across each of the islands.

A most beautiful stop. Great visit to the Aloe factory and learned of its many uses.

Willemstad, Curacao

5 out of 5
A fascinating tour of another beautiful island. MUST visit the Liqueur factory to see how Curacao is made .... and the many different flavors. A visit to the geologic caves was another great stop on the tour.

Kralendijk, Bonaire

5 out of 5
a fascinating history of Dutch influence. Wonderful to see that a large portion of the island is preserved as Beautifully protected parkland. The tour included learning how salt is produced from sea water from the salt flats .... over 5000,000 tons per year. Lots of history as well.

Disembarkation
