Review summary

The Celebrity Solstice is a great ship. Every thing is very new, clean and spacious. This was our first cruise and we were fortnant to be directed to this cruise line. Every night you had the option of main dinning or if running late the buffet lounge. The ship had plenty of things to do on board. Every night they had entertainment in the theater or casino. There was always live music on the ship either out by the pools or down near the casino. Plenty of lounges for beverages of all type. The staff goes out of there way to make you feel welcome. The ship also has three specialty resteraunts if you prefer something different. Every room had a veranda which was a big plus.

Ship experiences
