Celebrity Equinox Cruise Reviews - Reviews

A new ship with a theme of nature and the environment.

We had a wonderful cruise on the Cebrity Equinox to ports of call in Italy, Greece and Turkey.

I loved the Equinox trip. The ports were all fantastic; the staff went above and beyond my expectations. I especially liked that all of the staff I dealt with remembered our names and asked about our day.

Beautiful, clean

We thoroughly enjoyed this cruise, and believe it was a good bargain for the discounted price that we paid through United. The ship was in good condition, crew very helpful, and the itinerary was perfect. The entertainment wasn't as good as Holland America or NCL, but they were friendly and gave it a good try. One criticism is that we only saw the captain once during the captain's toast, but never saw him walking around the ship or engaging other guests and posing for photo ops like we saw on Holland America or NCL.

The Equinox is a very modern cruise ship, with wonderful accommodations, varied on-board activities,and a professional & helpful staff.

Excellent new ship with excellent and dedicated personnel. The only minor thing is that the gym is too small for the amount of people nowadays taking care of their fitness.

Most aspects were great

customer service is amazing on this cruise line, but if you going to try and order kosher meals they are horrible. Otherwise we had a great time, the shows were amazing the ports were all wonderful to visit.

Beautiful, clean, and had everything you could want for a top cruise.

We ran into problems with a 5 hr late departure from the US but celebrity monitored the situation and waited to make sure we got to the ship on time - moral - buy transfers through the cruise company. The majority of our tours had great guides (exception - Athens and Sorrento). Entertainment was excellent on board. Food was very good with moderate size portions. Wine selection by the glass was excellent with reasonable prices. Soda pkg well worth the price! Disembarkation was excellent! Servicing of the rooms was excellent and our balcony view was superb! Overall would recommend.

I am extremely happy with my experience on this cruise. made the booking easy and they were also available for changes, questions leading up to the trip. Celebrity Cruise line exceeded my expectations. I've traveled on Carnival, Royal Caribbean, and Princess. Celebrity impressed me more than the others. Customer service really stood out. The food was delicious. Great amenities. Fantastic activities. I will definitely try and book again!

Vessel and services were quite excellent; just felt that the 'extras' were being pushed a bit too hard

Best cruise we've ever been on!

Modern interiors , bright and well lighted silhouette dining room, I also like the lawn club

The staff was wonderful; entertainment overall better than expected for a cruise: the Equinox singers and dancers and acrobats were excellent. The ports -- especially Istanbul, Santorini & Naples -- outstanding, and time in Rome before the cruise a plus. This was the best-run ship I've been on.

The ship is very sleek and modern, very open in design with a central atrium where musical combos, the amazing quartet Top Shelf, and the dance band frequently perform which allowed us to see and enjoy the entertainment from several venues on several decks of the ship. The theater is very large, with only a very few bad seats. The sky lounge is lovely and large which makes it a popular venue for late night dancing and entertainment. We don't gamble, so we like that we can move through the ship without having to pass through the casino. The casual Oceanview Cafe, the main Silhouette dining room, and the specialty restaurants afford wonderful meals and great service in attractive surroundings with friendly staff.

The ship still has the "new ship" feel.(It's a little over 2 years old. The food was fantastic and the wait staff was very attentive. The entertainment was varied and excellent, especially the accapella group Top Shelf. We like the fact that most announcements we not broadcast in the stateroom interupting naps etc. The tours were very well organized, with compentent guides.

This was the best cruise I have been on out of at least 15 cruises. The Equinox is a great ship -- the epitome of understated elegance. It lacks lots of the gaudy glitz that some ships have (which makes you think of Las Vegas at times), which I really enjoyed. The staterooms are pretty spacious compared to many other ships. I found the food to be very good, and much better than recent experiences on Carnival and RCCL. As I usually find on cruises, the entertainment (ie, the evening shows) were hit or miss. The singers and dancers were terrible, as usual, but the guest entertainers were quite good. Despite being at 98% capacity, it never felt crowded, ever. It was a unique experience for me in that regard. I enjoyed the lack of heaving partying by the 20 somethings, but that may be mostly due to the added cost of the 11 night Mediterranean itinerary. Stops were Rome (Cititavecchia), Santorini, Istanbul, Kusadasi (Ephesus), Athens, Mykonos, Naples, Rome.

I have been on about 11 or 12 cruises, the Eqinox is the best designed vessel I have ever been on. Everything is central to mid ship which cuts down on walking. The dining room and the theater are all convenient. The shops, excursion desk, internet WIHI office are all easy to get to.
