What to know before you book
Cabin tips
Balcony staterooms are the sweet spot on Equinox, offering comfortable private outdoor space with two chairs and a small table at a reasonable price. About 85% of cabins have balconies, so there are plenty to choose from.
Dining
Equinox has ten dining venues including four specialty restaurants: Murano (French), Tuscan Grille (Italian steakhouse), Sushi on Five, and the Lawn Club Grill for al fresco dining next to the real grass lawn.
Entertainment
Entertainment is more relaxed than on Edge-class ships, with theater productions, live music, trivia, and poolside activities. This is a better fit if you prefer port exploration and dining over a packed activities schedule.
