Just returned today after a back to back Western/Eastern Caribbean cruise on Celebrity Solstice and just had to send this review because we couldn't believe how stunning this ship was. From the first moment we came through the embarkation process and being met by waiters with champagne, we just knew this was going to be a fabulous trip. Our stateroom was very spacious with plenty of storage room and a good sized balcony with sun loungers, it was kept spotless by the housekeeping staff and it also housed a large, very comfortable bed. The food was AMAZING with plenty of variety, so we felt that there was no need to try the speciality restaurants, as dining in the Grand Epernay was like eating out somewhere special every evening anyhow! There was entertainment going on throughout the day which I'm sure we missed, as we tended to just relax by the lovely pool deck when the sun shone. There were many bars around the ship and the bar waiters were a lot of fun. We preferred the second week of our cruise which was to the Eastern side as we felt the poverty, especially on Roatan, Honduras a bit too hard to handle, and although we still enjoyed seeing the Western ports, we absolutely loved our visits to the Eastern ports of St Thomas and St Marten which were beautiful islands. There were no children with us but the youngsters that we did see seemed to be having fun around the pool. The staff all around the ship were so attentive and helpful and never failed to greet you whenever you met them, we found them all very pleasant and approachable and went out of their way to assist you. All in all I can find no complaints with the Celebrity Solstice and can't praise it highly enough, in fact it will be hard trying to find another cruise which can live up to these standards!
