Creator's Key Takeaways

we are coming to you from the Celebrity Solstice where we have just spent a week on board to Alaska

we loved the options on the buffet all week long from the Chinese to the American food to the Indian to the build your own pasta BS

the upkeep of the ship you know it really I don't believe the Celebrity Solstice holds true to the celebrity brand

the buffet areas it really was quite the traffic jam up on the buffet because there's so many limited options

Welcome to our complete review of the Celebrity Solstice! 🌊 In this video, we dive deep into our experience on board the namesake of the Solstice-class for Celebrity Cruises, Celebrity Solstice. We share what we loved, what we didn’t love, and what we HATED about this ship. If you're considering a cruise on the Celebrity Solstice, this review is a must-watch to help you make an informed decision. In typical This Cruise Life fashion, we take a look at the food, drinks, entertainment, ship and all the other things cruisers might be wondering about when thinking about booking a cruise. And while this video has a few more items in the didn’t love category, there was still a lot to love about our time on board. Executive Producer Credits 🎬 This video is sponsored by Rocky’s parents! They blessed the entire family with a cruise to Alaska to celebrate Rocky’s niece graduating from high school.
