Cruising Forever! Posted April 20, 2012 Author #53 Share Posted April 20, 2012 Really?? WOW! What did they say? They thanked me for the review- they loved it- and discussed some of the things I wrote about. Really cool company. They actually called me about my comment card when we got back from the cruise, too, but I never got back to them on that call. I talked to their rep for about 10 minutes.

ellbon Posted April 21, 2012 #56 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Sorry you had such a bad time on Celebrity Eclipse. We definitely plan on cruising on all the Solstice class ships... we loved the two we've been on so far... especially Silhouette. Best Celebrity ship yet!

Cruising Forever! Posted April 21, 2012 Author #57 Share Posted April 21, 2012 been on 3 and doing a 4th .sorry not flying to NJ... enjoyed the 3 i was on.. Silhouette won't be in NJ anymore... she travels TA this Sunday and spends the summer in the Med. Then this fall she does a TA and winters in FL. The NJ excursions were a one season deal. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

curiouscat Posted April 21, 2012 #61 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Thank you for a most marvelous review.... Actually my favorite on these boards to date... Great narrative, pics and loved that Dad was along and your family looks so happy ( not all families as u know get along too well):p And loving that the Silhouette is moving to Fl since I live in the south. What particular didn't you like about Qsine? and those alcoves for rent is a joke... who the heck designed those? That is too funny CC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruising Forever! Posted April 29, 2012 Author #69 Share Posted April 29, 2012 Thank you for a most marvelous review.... Actually my favorite on these boards to date... Great narrative, pics and loved that Dad was along and your family looks so happy ( not all families as u know get along too well):p And loving that the Silhouette is moving to Fl since I live in the south. What particular didn't you like about Qsine? and those alcoves for rent is a joke... who the heck designed those? That is too funny CC It was great having Dad along... he's a new Celebrity convert! Qsine was a disaster: some truly bad food, horrible music, no real need for iPads as the waiter jots down your choices on paper (just like every other waiter in the world) and the iPads do NOTHING to describe the entrees (what a stupid mistake). $40/person is reasonable for a great meal... but this place is too much at any price.

Rare Presto2 Posted April 29, 2012 #70 Share Posted April 29, 2012 Fantastic review - thank you. We were on Silhouette's 3rd cruise last year and have booked again for August 2012 and next August 2013. Same ship, same aft cabin. I think we are in love ! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buranogal Posted April 29, 2012 #71 Share Posted April 29, 2012 Hi did I read correctly that you didnt like the Qsine had poor food etc I have paid already for our trip Maybe should cancel do you think? cheers Liz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
librarylady19 Posted April 29, 2012 #72 Share Posted April 29, 2012 (edited) Hi did I read correctly that you didnt like the Qsine had poor food etc I have paid already for our trip Maybe should cancel do you think? cheers Liz Don't panic! Remember that food is very subjective. We loved Qsine on Eclipse and have booked it for DHs birthday dinner on Summit. it's quite unique; you should try it for yourselves and form your own opinion.

I liked the sushi lollipops. The cupcakes were good. Not worth $40, though, imho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dancersusan Posted April 30, 2012 #74 Share Posted April 30, 2012 Well' date=' it took me a LONG time to write this review for this gorgeous ship, but I finally have it ready to go! This is a picture intensive page without thumbnails, so it might take a great deal of time to load on slower connections. Also, some iPads with low memory (like our first gen iPad) will NOT load all of the pictures. All of my Cruise Reviews can be reached via the link below, or you can go directly to the Celebrity Silhouette review here: http://home.comcast.net/~pmccullough/cruise/Silhouette%2012/Silhouette%2012.htm To all of you about to sail or planning to sail Silhouette in the future, have a GREAT time on our new favorite Celebrity ship! Bon Voyage, Paul Really appreciated all the time and effort that went into this review. We are sailing on Silhouette May 18th down the Adriatic and Med. Can't wait!! Thanks again for your tips, but then maybe Celebrity will have incorporated a few of them! Susan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
