    I feel you're more of an "old world" cruiser than most presenters. And I'm relieved and happy to see this. The thing is, you seem to focus on viewing the sea and spending time in lounges. I've seen very few reviews that comment on the goodness of the Ensemble Lounge, a place that I think is crucial on the Solstice ships and give them their personality. The Martini Bar also is a wonderful spot and note how different they are in ambiance. The promenade deck isn't the best but at least you've found a spot that's enjoyable as well as the deck in front of the gym.
    I will say I wish the refurbishments were more renovations or restorations than refurbishments/remodels as I do not love the neutrals with a color look of the Edge ships. And that's how most of the refurbishments are done with beige seats and blues rather than the richer colors of the original ship. I'm also not a fan of the overused high-back chairs that Celebrity inherited from Royal Caribbean. But overall, this Celebrity class of ship is the one for "old world" cruisers, then then Millennium, and not the Edge class.

      Glad you enjoyed my overview and approach! I'm booked onto Apex in July so I'm super intrigued to see what it'll be like 🚢

    Not sure how I haven't seen this until now - I must've been sleeping under a rock! You've captured Silhouette really nicely in this video!

    Good to see you back, Matthew. Hope '22 brings you more cruising fun, that's certainly what I'm hoping for!

    I’ve cruised on the silhouette. It’s a fabulous ship. Love it. Especially the Passport bar

    Thanks for the video. I really like the Silhouette especially after the refurbishment. I went to the fjords in 2019 and in 2021, I had a very enjoyable week-long cruise around Britain. Luckily, Scotland had opened up to cruise ships by then. I agree with you about the promenade deck. I didn't know about the forward deck beyond the gym. I must remember for next time.
    I enjoyed the food in the Grand Curvée. The staff worked so hard to make it a lovely experience every time and deserve a shout out. We didn't to Morano, but we did have dinner in the Tuscan Grille and lunch in the Sushi on %. Both were excellent.
    We were sailing at half capacity and many of the bars, although opened, did lack the usual atmosphere, with the exception of the Sky Lounge. I look forward to sailing on her again.

      I'm so glad you enjoyed it! She really is amazing and I hope I can go back onboard in the near future!
      It was a bit quieter I agree but I'm sure things will change soon!

    We really enjoyed your tips regarding Silohette. Cruising on her to Norway next year so will definitely follow some of your tips.

    Very informative and professionally produced video Matthew. Celebrity are not a company that I've ever considered before, but after watching this I would certainly be interested in cruising with them. Thankyou.

    Nice tour. At 09:06 above the tree on the left side. Looks like the grey wall is «boobling» is it supposed to look like that?

      I've never noticed that before actually 😂 I assume some of the fabric came loose but I'm sure it's fixed now!

    Hi guys loved the video..I can’t find out what time the entertainment starts to make dinner reservations. I was told between 7-9. Daaahhh i knew that! We’re in the Retreat section 3 rd Celebrity cruise and never saw the shows because we ate late and missed ..Weird Celerity can’t pinpoint.. also did you meet some of our peeps? 🌈.. Thanks

    • @CruisingWithMatthew
      @CruisingWithMatthew  Před rokem +1

      So glad you enjoyed the video! I've had a look and it's typically 7 and 9pm
      Aw thats a shame!
      I didnt although there were group meetings onboard. This was one of the first cruises post pandemic so we wanted to keep to ourselves a little bit!

    We went on Celebrity Equinox a few years ago and we had a blast.
    Was this video recorded after the Silhouette was revived?

    • @CruisingWithMatthew
      @CruisingWithMatthew  Před 11 měsíci

      Glad to hear! Yes this was after her refit which I believe happened in early 2020 (I went on her in July 2021)

    I literally realise why I’ve never Cruised! I’m surprising my wife in October. Athens to Athens. We’re on the Silloiutte. Every Vlog I’ve watched are soooo boring!

    Just back from a short cruise on this boat, first time with Celebrity - and LAST! Poor food, shockingly bad service and disappointing entertainment - thank heavens it was only 4 days!

    Sound quality made me turn it off.
