The Celebrity Solstice is stunning, and has a wide variety of activities. We decided to do spa treatments, and also purchase passes for the Persian Garden which we used every day. There is not much like laying on heated tile benches watching humpback whales play. The dining was mostly excellent; we especially enjoyed the Silk Harvest, and would do that again in a heartbeat. Murano was lovely, and the MDR was mostly good. The service was always excellent there, and only a couple of meals were subpar; we did find a lot of great meals there. We mostly used the Oceanview Cafe at breakfast only. Upgrading to a premium drink package was the right choice for us as we enjoyed the Martini bar daily, and also the Molecular Bar (our favorite - very soon to be rebranded as World Class Bar). The sit down tea service at Cafe al Bacio is very classy and refreshing in the afternoons! We enjoyed our excursions (kayaking with Southeast Kayaks in Ketchikan, whale watching in Juneau, and renting a motorcycle in Skagway to chase the train :) ) All in all, we would do this again tomorrow if we could. Loved it!!!

Cabin Review

Deluxe Veranda 2A

Cabin 2A

The cabin was well placed near midship and easy to get to activities either below or above us. We took stairs most of the time when going to the bars and dining. We loved the balcony view, although we kept too busy to spend much time there. It was great to monitor the weather (stunning!) and location. We were very pleased with the layout and the size of the cabin. It was not cramped for the two of us. We would book a similar cabin again.
