This was our third cruise, second with Celebrity, first on Silhouette. It was third of 3 overall but was still very good. The postives were Excellent Main Dining both food and service, we were Select and were able to enjoy same table and servers at different times. Better than Solstice. The embarkation at Venice was smooth (better than Sydney), and so was the disembarkation in Rome (better than Auckland). Where we were tendered the Silhouette handled it better than Solstice last year.

The Sky Suite remained very comfortable , with excellent service. Kotor, Montenegro is stunning, up with Norway and NZ. The hot tubs and pools were open until 11pm, brilliant, just what we need after a day sightseeing (again better than Solstice who closed them at 9pm). BUT smoked salmon is now charged for room breakfast (I protested, they provided for free). Internet charges are criminal. They have changed from a nice chocolate mint on the pillow to a ghastly Oreo biscuit, totally inedible and inappropriate. Water and coffees and drinks have all increased well ahead of inflation. Sicily is not a safe place to visit.
