Sail Date: Nov 2013

Embarkation at Sydney was relatively stress-free. We dropped off our bags, then hopped on a ferry and spent several hours at Sydney's Taronga Zoo. By the time we returned it took approx. 30 minutes to get on board the beautiful Solstice. We spent the next few hours investigating this amazing ship and were very impressed. The decor is very classy, not at all glitzy/neon bright like some cruise ships.

Our cabin was very well equipped with plenty of storage for clothing. Bed was comfortable and the bathroom was roomy with a curved glass shower screen. Also, more than enough drawers, shelving etc. for all your personal items. The balcony was big enough to sit comfortably and enjoy the scenery as we sailed by. A big thumbs-up for the cabin/bathroom.

The main dining room, various cafes, buffet and eateries were all serving very tasty meals/snacks. I was very impressed with the overall quality and variety offered. We visited Tuscan Grill twice (first evening and also lunch whilst sailing through the Fjords. Both times were excellent - quality of food (best steak everrrr) service and the position of the restaurant which had extensive wrap-around windows thus allowing a panoramic view from the rear of the ship. Regardless of where we had our meals the staff were always very helpful, courteous and efficient. Very much in keeping with the overall status of the Solstice. Perfect in every way.

Cabin Review

Very comfortable, spacious, plenty of storage areas. Bathroom had ample places to hold all toiletries etc. Shower was great with glass screen, excellent water pressure and nice and hot. Balcony was a good size for 2 persons and view from balcony was excellent.
