I spent 14 nights onboard Celebrity Solstice after her $50 million refit, sailing from Singapore to Sydney. In this review, I break down what Celebrity Cruises actually changed, what still feels dated, and whether Solstice is now worth booking. In my full, honest review of the newly updated ship, I cover the brand-new spaces like Sunset Park and The Boulevard, dining, entertainment, service and yes — the cabins — everything you need to know before booking. While there’s a lot to love about this refurbishment, there are also a few areas where Solstice shows her age… so is it really worth it in 2026? 🎥 Watch next: Celebrity Solstice Full Ship Tour: https://youtu.be/irN15WivnA0 Celebrity Edge Review: https://youtu.be/nyg6esI4EcQ Celebrity Solstice Veranda Cabin Tour: https://youtu.be/7_Htr1b9_ko 💡 What I cover in this review: • Refurbishment changes & first impressions • Cabin review (balcony stateroom) • Dining & food (included + specialty restaurants) • Public spaces & Sunset Park • Entertainment & onboard activities • Service & overall vibe • Technology, WiFi & app experience • Value for money breakdown 💰 Pricing discussed in this video: • 14-night cruise fare • Drinks & WiFi package costs • Onboard pricing examples 👍 If you enjoy cruise reviews, ship tours and honest travel insights, make sure to subscribe! - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 🛳️ My website hosts one of the world's most powerful cruise search engines where you can research and even book your next cruise or land holiday.
