Rare LMaxwell Posted August 9, 2022 #1 Share Posted August 9, 2022 Are there any significant differences between Equinox and Silhouette? Looking to book Silhouette for this fall; recently on EQ and really liked that ship Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
39august Posted August 9, 2022 #2 Share Posted August 9, 2022 Silly was revolutionized. Equinox only partly revolutionized. Equinox Retreat sun deck not accessible and no water feature. If you are not in a suite, very little difference in ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bama4cruisin Posted August 9, 2022 #3 Share Posted August 9, 2022 Equinox has the glass blowing area ; in that area Silhouette has Lawn Club Restaurant and The Porch 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
39august Posted August 9, 2022 #4 Share Posted August 9, 2022 Good catch. I seem to never remember the two dining places on Silly that Equinox does not have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ela123 Posted August 9, 2022 #6 Share Posted August 9, 2022 The Silhouette has a lot more furniture at the sunset bar as the grass was removed at the sides. The Equinox still has the grass at the sides I believe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Covepointcruiser Posted August 9, 2022 #7 Share Posted August 9, 2022 Silhouette is definitely a better choice because of the Lawn Club and the Porch specialties. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May try one out. Silhouette is just what's available for the dates of travel. Sounds like everything I liked about Equinox and then some. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jg51 Posted August 26, 2022 #9 Share Posted August 26, 2022 . Equinox still has the good "Card/Game/Puzzle Room" overlooking the "grand foyer," on Deck 9. To generate more revenue -- thus taking some fun out of cruising for certain people -- "X" replaced Silhouette's card room with four interior staterooms. We can't recall if those four new cabins are for single travelers or not. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saturngrl Posted August 26, 2022 #11 Share Posted August 26, 2022 I've sailed Constellation, Summit, Equinox, Silhouette and Reflection. I prefer Silly and Reflection because of the Lawn Club Grill and The Porch, as well as the larger Sunset Bar seating. They are all my favorite class of Celebrity ships. The Connie and Summit have their charms, but nothing beats the fabulous quality of the Lawn Club! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does this mean that there is no longer any iLounge at all on Silhouette ... or has the iLounge just been moved to a different part of the ship (possibly much decreased in size, due to lowered usage)? This is important to us, because we do not have any "devices" of our own, so we have always relied on iLounges on "X" ships for access to the Internet. .

The iLounge is now on deck 5 on the port side. Expensive shops are on the Starboard side( jewellery etc). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
