Creator's Key Takeaways

the buffet on Celebrity Solstice was a big hit with me I really enjoy a good Buffet on a cruise ship

the crew was extremely friendly to guests and it's not that way on some other Cruise Lines

the true effective cost of the cruise in a suite with a butler just one thousand seven hundred and ninety five dollars that is a genuine bargain

I really was impressed with a lot of things on my first Celebrity Cruise and I definitely see why so many people choose celebrity over and over again

Book through a travel agent to get help with questions and avoid booking mistakes
Consider a sky suite for suite perks at a lower cost
Bring an extension cord if you need a CPAP or electronic device at the bed

YouTube Video Description

This cruise ship review is all about my Mexican Riviera cruise on Celebrity Solstice. Even though I've done 58 previous cruises, this was my very first time sailing with Celebrity Cruises. If you like cruise ship videos, or taking vacations on cruise ships, I think you'll enjoy this cruise ship video... where I tell you all about what I loved about Celebrity Solstice, as well as what I didn't love about it. In the video, I talk extensively about the upscale vibe on the cruise, and how a Celebrity cruise is more of a luxury cruise line than others I've sailed with... such as Carnival Cruise Line, and Royal Caribbean. In fact, throughout the video, I make quite a few comparisons between this cruise and a Carnival cruise. Actually, of all the cruises I've done before... this cruise on Celebrity Solstice was most similar to the cruises I've done in The Haven on Norwegian Cruise Line. But this cruise came in at a significantly lower cost than a cruise in The Haven. If you're interested in booking a cruise with Celebrity, or with any cruise line, feel free to use the services of my travel agent, Caitlin Gallagher. Visit Caitlin's web site at www.AmbrenTravel.com, or call Caitlin directly at 1-904-364-5774. If you're interested in Celebrity Silhouette, Celebrity Eclipse, Celebrity Reflection, or Celebrity Equinox... you'd probably find this video interesting, because those are all nearly identical sister ships to Celebrity Solstice. In fact, they are what are known as Solstice-class cruise ships.
