Celebrity Silhouette Review

Additional details
My husband and I have been on one cruise before with Royal Caribbean, but we wanted to try Celebrity because we read that it was more geared towards adults without children and that the food was supposed to be better.
Our Embarkation was a definite improvement. We got on the ship within twenty minutes of arriving at the port. I believe we waited that long just to get to the first security checkpoint last time!
The cabin steward was great. He came and introduced himself after we got on the ship. He was always very pleasant when we would see him in the hall. I have a pug at home that I missed, so I brought a stuffed one with me on the trip. When they would make up the room they would pose the pug on different places on the bed and put pillow mints between its paws.
Cabin Review
Sunset Veranda
Huge bathroom! I don't know if this is common on all Solstice class vessels or not, but the shower was as large as the bathroom in our cabin on Royal Caribbean. The cabin is in the back of the ship, which means that you have to walk a lot to get anywhere. One comment I heard before going is that the aft cabin balconies are grimy, which I concur with. We did not spend a lot of time out on our balcony, but it was nice to have the light during the day and we had the door open at night so we could feel the breeze and hear the ocean. We booked this as a guarantee cabin and we paid several hundred dollars less for it than if we had chosen a cabin and we found it to be worth the rate we paid.
