Celebrity Solstice Review
A memorable Transatlantic cruise, but with a disappoinment
Rating by category
Additional details
This was our 21th cruise, but the first on Celebrity. We are a Norwegian couple who previous have sailed with Costa, NCL, RCCL and some minor European Cruise Lines. As it was our first cruise with a Premium Line, we had very high expectations to this Transatlantic cruise with Solstice.
Pre-cruise: We flew into FLL two days before the cruise. We stayed at the Marriott Hollywood Beach Hotel. The hotel is very nice, and it is situated right on the sea front, but we missed some interesting shops and nice restaurants to be established in the neighbourhood.
Embarkation - That went very quickly. Because we are Platinum Members in RCCL´s Crown & Anchor Society, we also enrolled before the cruise, to membership in the Celebrity Select Captain´s Club. But as we could observe, this membership was of no particular importance this time. Everybody came on board quickly.
Cabin Review
A very nice cabin, with a quiet location (Aft.). We will however point out that it was a long way to catch an elevator. But this was all right for us. Gave us a little exercise several times each day.
