Northern summer
The Mediterranean
Western and Eastern Mediterranean weeks from Italian and Spanish homeports — port-rich itineraries where the extra space onboard pays off on sea days.

Celebrity Cruises · Solstice Class · Maiden voyage 2012
The largest, newest and roomiest of the five Solstice sisters.
Reflection was the last of the class to launch, and Celebrity used the opportunity to add a whole extra deck. That means 1,523 staterooms, more suites — including the two-storey Reflection Suite — and a wider spread of AquaClass and Concierge cabins than any of her sisters. She keeps everything that defines the class: half an acre of real grass on the Lawn Club, the glass-domed adults-only Solarium, Luminae and The Retreat for suite guests, and a speciality dining line-up that runs from Murano to Le Petit Chef. Revitalised in 2022, she splits her year between the Caribbean and the Mediterranean.

Onboard
A high-level look. We'll go deeper on any of these — including the shows worth pre-booking — when we speak.
Real, growing grass on deck 15, with cabanas and an outdoor video wall for alfresco films. The Lawn Club Grill sits alongside it — barbecue done properly, and one of the nicest tables at sea.
A glass-domed, adults-only pool, hot tub and lounging space on deck 14. It is why this ship works as well on a shoulder-season Mediterranean week as it does in the Caribbean.
Suite guests get Luminae, Michael's Club lounge and a private sundeck. Reflection has more suites than any sister — including the two-deck Reflection Suite with its own glass-walled bathroom over the sea.
Murano, Tuscan Grille, Sushi on Five, The Porch, Le Petit Chef and the Lawn Club Grill. We'll tell you which two are genuinely worth the cover on your sailing — and which nights to keep for Opus.
Most UK Reflection fares bundle drinks, Wi-Fi and tips. We'll check whether the standard package covers what you'll actually order before you pay to upgrade to premium.
150 AquaClass staterooms with spa amenities and their own restaurant, Blu — the best-value step up on the ship, and quieter than the fare difference suggests.
Cabins & where to book
Reflection's extra deck gives you more choice than her sisters — 78% of staterooms have a veranda, and the suite and AquaClass tiers are unusually deep. The question is which balcony, not whether to book one.
We'll steer you clear of the obstructed views, the cabins under the pool deck and the noisy connecting doors — and towards the ones that quietly go for the same money.
Best value
Concierge Class, mid-ship decks 9–10
268 of them, so there is usually availability. Steady in a swell, short walks everywhere, plus priority embarkation and dining times for a modest step up.
Quiet pick
Sunset Veranda or Sunset Concierge, aft
Only 47 across both categories, with a wake view that makes sea days. They go first on Caribbean and Mediterranean weeks — book early or not at all.
Worth the upgrade
AquaClass, or a Sky Suite in The Retreat
AquaClass buys you Blu and spa access well short of a suite fare. On a longer sailing, a Sky Suite with Luminae and Michael's Club often works out better than people expect.
Approach with care
Deck 12 forward and cabins under the pool deck
Reflection's extra deck shifted a few cabins into less happy positions. We'll steer you a floor or two down for the same money.
Where she sails

Western and Eastern Mediterranean weeks from Italian and Spanish homeports — port-rich itineraries where the extra space onboard pays off on sea days.
Winter
