Review summary

Will never recommend this cruise ship to anyone. Overpriced and over rated cruise line.

Embarkation

4 out of 5
Smooth

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
Just okay, nothing special or outstanding comparing to pass cruises.

Onboard Activities

1 out of 5
Other than ordinary facilities such as fitness center, mini basketball court, smallest outdoor swimming pool…….really can’t think of any other note worthy activity.

Entertainment

2 out of 5
Only two out of the seven nights stage shows were acceptable, one night even fall in sleep during the boring show. Musicians were okay, nothing special with the DJ.

Children's Programs

Didn’t see any children program at all.

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
Average services, most staffs were friendly.

Ship Quality

1 out of 5
Old, outdated and poorly maintained Lack of a breath taking lobby or atrium. Decoration was minimal, can hardly find any photogenic spots on this ship.

Cabin / Stateroom

2 out of 5
Small, outdated, and poorly maintained cabin. Smelly bathroom, broken dresser drawer and lack of USB charger outlet. Decent size closet.

Ship tip

Pick another cruise line.

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
Smooth and uneventful

So sorry, we took this ship to Alaska and had a amazing time! I shopped around and got a great deal with perks. We also got great photos!

Always wonder about these third party reviews, especially when the dates do not line up. Some have good detail and match others and some are way out in left field.

The cruise is still in progress.

I was on the same cruise from Hawaii to Vancouver and had a different experience as they cancelled a port in Maui do to ship problems and the COVID outbreak soured the last 3-4 days.

As they say, different strokes for different folks. We sailed ten nights on Solstice from Hawaii to Vancouver and it was outstanding. No complaints. Sorry you didn’t enjoy your cruise.
