Celebrity Solstice is back on the water after renovation, marking the start of Celebrity Cruises’ revitalization of its Solstice Series ships.
The vessel set sail from Singapore on March 2, unveiling eight new experiences, including four spaces that are new to Celebrity Cruises: Trattoria Rossa, Sunset Park, The Parlor, and Boulevard Lounge.
The enhancements also include updates to all existing staterooms, plus an additional 54 staterooms and four new stateroom categories to bring the ship to a total of 1,479 cabins.
Now, the ship is sailing in Asia, Australia and Alaska, ahead of its 110-night Grand Voyage departing September 13.
“Celebrity Solstice launched our Solstice Series ships and defined a generation of Celebrity Cruises travel,” says Laura Hodges Bethge, president of Celebrity Cruises. “This reimagination honors that heritage while setting a new standard for what an elevated vacation can be. Every new experience was designed around how our guests want to spend their time, backed by the unmatched hospitality that defines every Celebrity Cruises sailing.”
Sunset Park is the ship's new top-deck outdoor destination, an open-air social space featuring yoga, lawn games, live music and new private cabanas. The new Sunset Park Café offers casual bistro dining for breakfast and lunch. Also on the top deck, an expanded Sunset Bar offers handcrafted cocktails.
Celebrity Solstice is also debuting two new restaurants. Trattoria Rossa, new to Celebrity Cruises, is an Italian restaurant serving Roman and Southern Italian cuisine. Fine Cut Steakhouse offers 30-day dry-aged steaks and fresh seafood.
The ship also has two new entertainment venues: Boulevard Lounge, a 125-seat venue offering all-day programming, and The Parlor, a new elevated sports and gaming lounge with craft cocktails, wine and whiskies.
In The Theatre, two production shows are making their Celebrity Solstice debut. Smoke and Ivories celebrates the iconic sound of the 1950s with piano entertainment, high-flying acrobatics and world class vocals, while Rockumentary, recreates landmark rock performances across the decades in a live concert experience. Guests will also find new entertainment experiences throughout the ship, including a candle-lit concert featuring live, string renditions of rock performances.
All Celebrity Solstice staterooms have been fully upgraded, and 54 new staterooms have been added. Guests can also discover four new stateroom categories: the Panoramic Infinite Veranda Suite, two Panoramic Ocean View Suite categories and the Deluxe Panoramic Ocean View. Guests of The Retreat, Celebrity Solstice's exclusive suite-class, will find a new sundeck with an oversized hot tub, dedicated outdoor seating and a redesigned private lounge.
AquaClass staterooms, Celebrity Solstice's wellness-focused accommodations, have been refreshed with spa-inspired amenities including massaging shower heads, aromatherapy diffusers, in-room yoga mats, premium robes and slippers and a pillow menu.
Ship-wide enhancements extend to returning venues: Café Al Bacio, Cellar Masters, World Class Bar, Martini Bar, Pool Bar, Passport Bar, the Fitness Center and Camp at Sea, as well as Luminae, exclusive to guests of The Retreat.
