We were 28 days on the Connie 3 cruise back to back starting January 24th. We felt that the ship condition was very good. You had to look for problems. It is ready for a refurbishment, but some imperfections didn't affect our enjoyment of the cruise.
We like the smaller ships, so the Connie was a good choice for us. The cabin was clean and very serviceable. Overall, the entire ship was clean. ...
First time in Aqua Class and can’t describe how wonderful the experience was in Blu. We were lucky enough to get a beautiful corner banquet (#39 for 4). The service, food and personal experience each of us had was truly incredible from the moment we walked up to say hello to the last time we said goodbye.
The food at the buffet was also unbelievable! So much better than last January’s ...
We were first time cruisers. We really didn't think we would even like a cruise because in the past, we never even had a desire to cruise. Last year our vacation spot in Ft Myers Beach was destroyed from the hurricane and we just wanted to get away until we figured out and found another vacation spot in Southwest Florida. Well, my friend is a travel agent and suggested a cruise and we decided to ...
We sailed on the Constellation from December 10th to 22nd in a Royal suite. The itinerary was the 12-night Ultimate Caribbean & The Americas, with ports of call in George Town (Grand Cayman), Cartagena (Colombia), Colon (Panama), Puerto Limon (Costa Rica) and Cozumel (Mexico).
This was our first cruise since the pandemic. We were two weeks away from our South Pacific cruise on the Solstice at ...
Given some of the negativity about Connie I was somewhat apprehensive. I am not sure what some folks expect but I have to say this is a wonderful ship with terrific staff. The food was excellent and whilst the staterooms are due an upgrade there was certainly nothing wrong with our Aqua Veranda cabin. The public areas are immaculate and there is always plenty of space to sit down and relax. ...
Concierge at michael's club was awesome. The food and service at Luminae were off the charts. The Panama canal transit tour was great. Cartagena was a beautiful place and loved it. Porto Limone is a dump and waste of a day. Usually like Cozumel but with 7 ships in port it was like times square. Crew were great, very little wait for drinks etc. The only waiting time was for a burger at the pool ...
10 day cruise out of Tampa. Left a day early, stayed @ Ramada Wyndham (free shuttle from airport) For this cruise we choose Concierge class balcony, & Premium Beverage package. Embarkation was the smoothest we ever experienced, they had plenty of staff guidance. We had downloaded the Celebrity App beforehand, and completed the check-in process ( including uploading proof of vaccination & a ...
I say the best cruise ever since I have been on 50+ cruises both with my hubby (who has gone on his permanent cruise) and alone. This ship and staff and crew were so exceptional that I had to write this review to acknowledge every person that I had interacted with and the passengers as well. Even though this ship is an "oldie" (and so am I) she still had much to offer.
The food on the buffet ...
You get spoiled real fast as there are 800+ crew on board. It started when my cabin was changed at gate from deck 7 to deck 9. I didn't like new cabin so I went to service desk once on ship and asked for another cabin. There were at least 50 same day cancellations so knowing where rooms were I asked for and received aft corner family suite keeping my C1 status. Very nice! It got better from there ...
As veteran cruisers (45), this was an exceptional experience - not to be forgotten. The upbeat & energetic staff took the "extra mile" servicing all passenger needs & concerns. GREAT STAFF!
This 20 year old vessel, whilst in good condition, is in need of refurbishment. (a) Notwithstanding replacement of normal infrastructure wear & tear. adequate electrical and electronic interfacing is ...
