The pros: The ship was very clean, the service was great, there was an abundance of drink stations. Large bathrooms at the expense of storage.
The cons: The ship is poorly designed. If you have an aft cabin there are no rear stairs or elevators so you have to walk quite a way to go up or down. The cabins had the worse storage of any ship I have been on. The bed has a rounded bottom so ...
We flew direct to FLL from DTW. Then took a LYFT car to the cruise terminal, cost $11.29 + tip.
Embarkation
Not to bad at first then kind of a long wait on the end to actually board the ship. We thought we would eat lunch at the main dinning room but the only choices were the buffet or the burger bar at the pool.
At about 1 pm the cabins were ready for people to go to.

Itinerary worked out well. Loved all the perks that went with the suite . Private dining was wonderful. Michael's club was terrific. Liked the quiet time there. Not having to wait on line. No crowds. Loved meeting all the people from cruise critic. Had a blast from doing a slot pull. Didn't win. But so nice cheering everyone on. The captain came and introduced some of the staff. The captain was ...
We decided to try the Silhouette because of the recommendations from several people we have met on other cruise lines. We booked a 7 day Caribbean cruise and headed off to Ft Lauderdale. The ship sailed on Sunday which was nice since there were only two ships in port that day. We parked our car at Park 'N Go and headed over to the ship. We arrived about 12:30 pm and embarkation was smooth and we ...
We both love celebrity. I live in Hollywood Florida and my cousin Judie lives in Pompano Beach.

At 1o'clock out rooms were ready. No luggage yet. Then about one hour later 1shows up but not the ...
Just completed a 7 day Caribbean. Third time on Celebrity, first time on the Solstice class and 15th cruise overall.
Have read all the rave reviews about the Solstice versus Millennium class of ships proffered by Celebrity. Have to say that that - while the overall experience was fine - I prefer the older ships in Celebrity's fleet. Here's why:

We chose this cruise because we got a good rate and the promotions including a drink package, gratuities, and onboard credit. We were celebrating my husband's birthday. While we are seasoned cruisers, this was our first Celebrity cruise.
From the time we stepped on the ship until the time we debarked, the service and crew was simply amazing. The ship was spotless and everything was in good ...
We chose back to back 7 day Caribbean cruises for a relaxing holiday and we were not disappointed. We had an amazing experience, best cruise yet. Embarkation and disembarkation were smooth and speedy. On board all of the staff were professional, efficient and very friendly, a credit to the ship. We ate breakfast and lunch in the Oceanview Cafe where the choice and quality of food were excellent. ...
I wanted three sea days -- and some quiet time on ship while in port cities.
Embarkation was a breeze. Cabins were ready early afternoon.
The public areas were clean and tidy and in great condition.
Sailing in Aqua class was great. I used the Gym and Persian Gardens several times you should expect the gym in crowded the first sea day. It was less crowded as the week progressed.

It was a ...
