Celebrity Equinox 8 day ?

[Cruisegirl6]

Hello,

 

We have a few questions if you don't mind helping us with:

 

1-  Our cabin 1535 is the bed by the balcony or bathroom

2-  On the app the highly menu's seem to rotate, does anybody have the actual menu's given on the 8 night cruise so we can choose which night to dine at specialty restaurants

3-  Does anybody have the entertainment/schedule for this 8 night cruise?

4-  What if your favorite hang out spot and bar on this ship, we only been on the E class ships.

5-  Which restaurant do you prefer Tuscan or Murano?

When is the cruise?

1.  Sorry, I don’t know where the bed is.

2.  The app is not accurate until you are on board.  You can look up the current cruise and if it’s the same as yours the menu may be similar.

3.  Look at cruise planner for current sailing to give you an idea of entertainment, but every cruise can be different depending on outside entertainment contracts and ships location.

4.  I love to hang out at Cafe Al Bacio during the day.  We enjoy martini bar at night.  There are lots of great areas on ship.

5.  Murano is our favorite for dinner and Sushi on 5 for lunch.  
 

Hope this helps a bit.

Just a few comments -- we much prefer Murano over Tuscan;  we find Murano to be consistent in quality while Tuscan is much more variable.  We also like Sushi on 5.

 

If you are not in a suite (which has access to Michael's Club/Retreat Lounge) we like the Passport Bar.

Definitely Murano. We leave on Saturday for Caribbean on the Equinox. This is our 4th time on her. Haven’t been on X since 2020. Hope we are not disappointed, as we have been sailing on X since 2008.

Favorite hang out spot by day is the solarium and by night is the martini bar, world class bar or casino. 
 

Generally speaking I think Murano is the better bet EXCEPT on Equinox where Tuscan has them beat from service, to apps, mains and desserts. Not to mention the aft facing view. If you do Tuscan I recommend you temper your food intake throughout the day and go all in at dinner. Our server wanted us to try so many dishes. We literally ate for 2 hours 😳. It was delicious. And they will give you half portions to share and taste. Should I visit Equinox again, Tuscan would win out over Murano…and I like Murano a lot!

4-- The Solarium is very relaxing and a great spot. ( We are non-drinkers , so, can't comment on bars )

Listen slowly ( LOL ) to this----Beware of the Free 5 minute massage offered by the Staff of the Persian Gardens, located near the Solarium pool---

My " Free " massage cost me over $300 ( US ) before she let me go.

So, when I got back to our cabin and told " you know who " ---- Oh boy--better not go there. 

So, the next day when I looked in the mirror-- there I was--- didn't look no 20 yrs younger !

LOL---So, when I went to GR to complain------ nope--- nothing !!

5-- As a perk for Elite class ---Tuscan Grill is excellent in the morning for continental breakfast. Ask for a seat near the window --- great view.

We also enjoy a nice dinner there --- food and service always excellent.

Murano is more of a fine dining experience ---excellent menu selections, dishes prepared table-side , French service , --- try it-- you won't be disappointed.

The above mentioned breakfast in Tuscan is for Elite and above CC members only, and no charge. Tuscan Grill is a great choice if you want lots of different foods. No limit on number of apps, salads, soups, etc. The meatball appetizer serving is huge! The steaks are usually done just right and we share a lobster pasta dish to go with the steaks. The pistachio and chocolate cream brulee is to die for. As for hangouts, varies. My favorite bars are World Class, Sky Lounge and Ensemble in the evenings. Al Bacio is our favorite for coffee during the day.

As mentioned, the menus and entertainment schedules vary from cruise to cruise.

 

Our favorite hangout is a very difficult question.  We'll often be at Sunset Bar during the day, but we might easily move around.  Sky Lounge is very nice during the day when it's open.  At night, we tend to decide based on who is playing in that area, and we wind up in Ensemble more often than not (at least for some portion of the evening) because of the wonderful acts in there.  It's totally a matter of whim, though, and that's the fun of the ship.  Go where the spirit moves you.
