101Jus Posted April 6, 2010 #1 Share Posted April 6, 2010 I understand that there are no balcony lights on the Solstice class ships and so I'm thinking about bringing an electric candle with us. It's made of real wax but is battery-operated and completely safe. Will trying to bring it onboard create an issue? Would like to be able to sit outside on our balcony in the late evening after the kids have gone to bed and have some sort of lighting on (kids won't sleep if any of the room lights are on). A torch is a little less romantic! Justin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruise kitty Posted April 6, 2010 #2 Share Posted April 6, 2010 Hi, we brought three of them on our last cruise, no problem, cabin attendant would even arrange them and turn them on when he did our night service. Very pretty & romantc (& safe) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruisestitch Posted April 6, 2010 #3 Share Posted April 6, 2010 Little battery-operated votive candles are great as bathroom nightlights. Since the switch for the lights is outside the door, every time a roomie gets up in the night, the bathroom light is bright! With a little votive glowing inside, there's just enough illumination.

greeneg Posted April 6, 2010 #4 Share Posted April 6, 2010 Actually, the Solstice ships have a built in night light in the bath. When you turn out the lights in the cabin at night, the night light stays on. It does not intrude into the cabin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spender Nui Posted April 7, 2010 #8 Share Posted April 7, 2010 Curious why they don't have lighting on the balconies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elvnga Posted April 8, 2010 #9 Share Posted April 8, 2010 We used the battery votives for a mini Advent wreath and it worked well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FinelyCruising Posted April 8, 2010 #10 Share Posted April 8, 2010 What a nice idea. I think these are going on my packing list. How lovely.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hajekfam Posted April 8, 2010 #11 Share Posted April 8, 2010 Curious why they don't have lighting on the balconies. On the rest of the fleet, they do ask that you turn off the balcony lights at night, turning them on only when you are out there. The lights disorient migrating birds and other wildlife. Maybe there were too many people that didn't abide by the request. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
