The Cruise Experience
Celebrity Solstice carries around 2,850 guests, yet it feels spacious, so you can enjoy the ship at your own pace without the queues. Up top is the Lawn Club, half an acre of real grass for a game of boules or a film in the sunshine, and the ship’s solar panels help to power it.
Dining is a real strength, from the main restaurant to Tuscan Grille, Murano, Sushi on Five and Le Petit Chef, and the Martini Bar is one of the liveliest spots onboard. Your Classic Drinks Package and Wi-Fi are included throughout the cruise.
