Review summary

Cruise was 18 day trans pacific not listed as an option. I choose around Australia to continue.

Spent 18 days from Sydney to Hawaii by way of Tahiti, Bora Bora and Moorea French Polynesia . The ship was clean the rooms comfortable and bed and pillows dreamy. Food was good, soup a little salty, but other hab that WoW..We had an awesome room steward, Sanjay on deck 9. He worked, constantly, kept us with ice and tidy room. I would highly recommend!

Ship tip

The Solstice is a warm and friendly ship. Many things to do every day. You receive a newsletter each evening that outlines the following days activities. We loved the green lawn on the top deck, Bocce ball is lots of fun. Glassblowing presentation was very good. There was even a Hula class.

Whilst in Bora Bora highly recommend Patrick's 1/2 day tour, swimming with stingrays and reef sharks and lovely lunch on private Island.... his company name is Maohi Nui, check him out on Tripadvisor!!

serialcruiser1- Was that on the Crown Princess. We will be doing the 28 day round trip with the Hawaiian and Tahitian islands in October. We have been to the islands of Hawaii. Any suggestions for things to do/excursions while visiting the islands of Tahiti. Glad to hear you had a great time
