What to know before you book
Cabin tips
Book a balcony stateroom. About 85% of cabins have them, and the refreshed rooms with new bedding and updated decor punch above their weight. Concierge Class adds priority perks for a modest upgrade.
Dining
Silhouette has about a dozen dining venues. The specialty standouts are Tuscan Grille for steaks and pasta, Murano for French fine dining, and Le Petit Chef for something theatrical and fun. Free options include the Oceanview Cafe buffet and the Mast Grill.
Entertainment
Entertainment follows the classic Solstice formula with theater shows, live music, and lounge acts. The ship is more about unwinding at the Lawn Club or lingering over dinner than high-octane activities.
