Rare hcat Posted October 18, 2016 #27 Share Posted October 18, 2016 We have never sailed Celebrity. We have sailed Carnival, Royal Caribbean and our favorite Princess. We are looking at an 11 night on Equinox in May 17. 2 adults, early 50's. Favorite activities is relaxing and a couple good shows and night entertainment. Don't like jazz or classical music. Please tell me if we would like this ship and why. Thanks. From this brief summary not sure EQ is for you so no reason to sell it..We love it...but you mght not. Celeb not known for good shows and nightime entertainment.. Athough subjective, shows and lobby stuff was lame in Jan on EQ... They do get great jazz groups sometimes in the Ensemble lounge and occasionally a standout string quartet. House bands usually ok and one or two folk guitar/ singers. Great ship for relaxation, nice spa/gym, good food, lovely decor....you may find a range of ages but possibly older ..although we never cruised on her in May. If you prefer Princess to Carnival it might work for you. Have fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wallie5446 Posted October 18, 2016 #28 Share Posted October 18, 2016 (edited) The number of lounges on Equinox is outstanding and I am excited to try new ones like the World Bar as well as old faves like the Martini bar. ! Just wait till you get to try the GastroBar! It has become our bar to hang at over the Sunset and Martini. Tho the food offerings have an ala-cart fee, the burger there is the best of any of the 7 lines we have sailed on! Not to mention 35+ craft beers :D Mr Santos is marvelous at the World Bar!

Can't wait! My husband is THRILLED- he is a big craft beer drinker. He liked Michael's club but the location was a pain....We have some OBC so I will have to try that burger! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if you, like our wife's are not a craft fan, they will keep a nice selection of wine so you can enjoy it to! Open, airy, 4-5 big screen TV's, and windows to watch out and see the waves go by! Dang we wanna go back now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5682miles Posted October 18, 2016 #31 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Had I wanted to be difficult, I could have done so. Don't be so judgemental about others. I can imagine there will not be any doubt about that. I never made any judgement about others, it was a response to your post alone. As I said previously those of us who have contributed have done so positively to help cruzluver2 in their decision making. I feel it is very unfair and quite unnecessary that you should use their thread as a platform for your negativity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I on the other hand did the food and wine pairing and that was also fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm am quite partial to good beer (that British/Irish heritage coming through) but I am also looking forward to trying out their cocktails! :) They also offer a food and beer pairing at the gastropub.
