Celebrity Equinox Cruise Reviews - Reviews

The Equinox is a nice ship, though the decor in the staterooms is a bit dated. The common areas such as the Sky Lounge and the Retreat Lounge have been updated to a more modern decor. This sailing from Lisbon to Barcelona offered a great itinerary with interesting ports. There were a lot of excursion options to choose from, and in fact, I wished we had longer times or overnights in some ports so we could have visited more than one inland city.The food in the Luminae was excellent, and the entertainment was very good. .

Overall the ship provided a great experience. The ship is spacious and offers much variety in decor and relaxation spaces. The first two Portugal stops were not close to town and required a lot of walking and in the case of Porto, a long bus ride.

everything was good. I would go again. over all experience excellent

We have been on many ships. We stay in the equivalent cabin like the Haven on NCL. They have always exceeded our expectations. Not so on in the Retreat on Equinox. We were disappointed with Luminae. Very small menu, we ordered most of our meal of the Main Dining Room menu. Luminae was closed for lunch on port days but we were on the ship for lunch.

Not happy with ship at all. Very old and needs updating. Paid for ocean view and it was blocked by life boats. Food was just ok. Ports were the reason this ship was booked. First time in Celebrity. Prefer Royal Caribbean. Not sure I will do another Celebrity.

We will definitely do this cruise again. Had so much fun.

Was somewhat disappointed with food and entertainment on the ship. Also no explanation as to why we did not port at Bonaire. It was listed on the original itinerary.

Overall, this cruise was one of the best one that we have taken. It had 2800 guests and 1200 crew members. Only 47 children were onboard. They had 8 elevators, which never broke down. Now, that's important! The pools, hot tubs, shows, food, great service, wonderful crew and captain were superb! We will definitely book another cruise on a Celebrity ship! We now have some wonderful memories and pictures!

Overall we had a very good time and would choose Celebrity again for sure. Food, service, theater entertainment, cabin comfort, and sailing experience was excellent. Areas to improve would be wasted space with a real grass area that was completly under utilized ie more seating, deck/court activities, much greater purpose than 'real grass'!!!!!

GOOD TRIP UNTIL ONE PASSENGER BECAME ILL & THEN CUSTOMER SERVICE BECAME HORRIBLE IN PREPARING DISEMBARKING & TRAVEL BACK TO ORIGINAL PORT.

Laid back cruise. Ship had almost no children and the average age of the guests was close to 65 years old.

I found the ship needs to be refurbished and updated. They nickel and dime you for everything. You can’t even get a plastic bottle of water without a drink plan for both of you. The slot machines in the casino were the worse. Penny machines were almost a dollar. Why call them penny machines. When playing tables no one came over to ask if you wanted a drink.

Great itinerary! The ship is well designed. Service in most areas was lacking from bar staff to shore excursions, room steward. Certainly not what Celebrity used to be like.

First cruise on Celebrity, 27 cruises before in the last 10 years. I must say you didn't disappoint! First class for the money all the way. Loved the layout and the huge variety of food and drink available to everyone. Service all thru the ship was a 10!! Every one smiling and having a great time. The library is a welcome treat too. Good entertainment for the most. Cleanest ship we've ever been on.

Even though the ship is a little older and going into dry dock soon, it is very clean and well maintained. Food was very good as was the service by all the staff. Biggest criticisms are 1) pre cruise dining time booking system is awful 2) stateroom storage and outlets are lacking 3) bar servers are almost negligible (almost always need to go to the bar for a drink)

We usually cruise with Royal Caribbean and were surprised at the level of additional perks on Celebrity. RCL needs to combine the points from both! Our loyalty to Royal may be changing.

Our steward, Amando, was so pleasant and accommodating. He made sure our room was cleaned twice a day. Chocolate on our pillows every night. The MDR, Jaime and Kendra where the absolute best!! My husband liked the brown bread at the buffet. He asked is they had the bread in MDR, which they did not. But Jaime made it happen and my husband had his brown bread every night we ate in MDR. And Kendra made sure it was nice and warmed up for him. The ship was clean, all of the staff were friendly. There was not one bad moment on this cruise, loved every second of it!!

We had a great time and we were surprised at how chill it was- the bars where not packed at all- the activities were litely attended. it was really lovely!

We had a very good time. Lots of good food, nice shows and entertainment.

Fun, relaxing cruise. I thought the food was average to a little bit above average. I really enjoyed the entertainment in the Theatre each night and also the activities. The days at sea are nice and relaxing.
