My wife and I are experienced cruisers (about 18-19 thus far, and include all the mainstream cruise lines).
We were looking forward to this trip, as we had never been to Hawaii, and are getting older, making the long flight from the east coast more taxing.
Overall, we certainly had a very good time. The ship is elegant, in an understated way; lots of chrome, glass, and neutral colors. The Solstice was immaculate, and staff were busy cleaning glass, etc., everywhere.
Cabin was nicely laid out. Veranda furniture was sturdy and the chairs had recline adjustments. The shower design was the best I have seen; it was a complete enclosure, which kept the bathroom dry after showering. Storage space was adequate, provided the cabinets above the bed were used.
