Lots of room under bed in Aqua Class for Cases and Bags.

:):):)During the months of February and March, 2018, we spent 32 nights on the Celebrity Solstice cruising Australia and New Zealand. At no time were we dissatisfied with the quality of the ship, the cleanliness of the ship or the staff. All the staff that we encountered from the Captain down to the cleaners, were all friendly and attentive. We were in Aqua Class and we must say we had 10 out of 10 service from the staff in Blu Restaurant, plus of course our Room Attendant too, with a 10 out of 10. So no complaints whatsoever with the Celebrity Solstice on our trip regarding staff and ship condition. Enjoy your cruise.

:):):) A little bit of information for Australian Celebrity Solstice travellers. Upcoming this Thursday, 22 October 2015, "Mighty Cruiseships" at 8.30 pm on Channel 7 features the Celebrity Solstice down under. This show will feature a 17 day journey on the Celebrity Solstice around Australia.

We were guests on the Celebrity Solstice Cruise ship Auckland to Sydney in December and were advised by the Captain on 12 December 2014 by letter that a small percentage of guests on board had gastrointestinal illness thought to be Norovirus. The exact number was never relayed to guests on board. After this letter was received, many sanitation procedures were put in place, including all books in the library being removed, no self-service at the Ocean View buffet cafe, all salt and pepper shakers, candles and all other tableware removed from tables in all restaurants, including specialty, excursion buses sanitised by Celebrity staff before being boarded by guests. Celebrity did take this seriously with many extra cleaning procedures. My wife has been ill with a serious flu type virus which was caught when on the ship, and it has been very hard to shake off with antibiotics. Our local doctor felt that the virus was a "northern hemisphere bug" as we both get the Australian flu injection each year.

My wife and I have recently returned from an 8 day cruise on the Celebrity Solstice from Sydney to Noumea, Isle of Pines and Lifou. We chose the Celebrity Solstice for this cruise. It was our first cruise and we could not have been happier. In fact, so happy that we are off again on the Celebrity Solstice from Sydney to New Zealand in November. Bon Voyage!:)
