Cabin: Concierge Class 3

We took a ten day cruise on the Celebrity Constellation out of Ft. Lauderdale to St. Maartin, Guadalupe, and St. Barth's in February of 2015. The ship also stopped at the company-owned island in the Bahamas. We had been on the same ship for a 15-day cruise to Hawaii in and out of San Diego several years ago. We'd also been on a Celebrity ship one 17-day cruise around the Horn several years prior to this. In each case we had a concierge class room.

Celebrity has slipped. Badly.

First the good: Our cabin, which overlooked the stern, was excellent, with a really big balcony. The bed was great, the cabin service was superb, and meals were excellent in the main dining room. The breakfast room service was also very good. Unlike other lines, there was no check to sign to add "an additional gratuity." Indeed, the room service waiter didn't take a cash tip, much to my surprise. Luggage service was very quick, and everything was spotless. Talent in the theaters was first class.

Concierge Class 3

Cabin C3

The ship was refurbished right after our Hawaii cruise in 2010. It needed it -- stuffing was coming out of the furniture and the rugs were dirty. Now, in February of 2015, the cabin we had was beautiful. In particular, the veranda was superb. They've coated the floor with some non-slip surface that really works, even when the floor is wet you don't slip. Further, I dropped a glass on the veranda floor and it's didn't break -- it bounced. The veranda furniture -- two lounges, two deck chairs, and two tables -- was the best I've seen. Everything was ship shape.
