We are finally here! My favorite party of my Hawaiian repositioning cruise with Celebrity Cruises. To recap, this cruise was on the Celebrity Solstice.

I stayed at the Hilton next door to this property in August and decided I want to give the Conrad Ft. Lauderdale Beach a try for my pre cruise stay in November after seeing it. When ...
