"Once up the steps, there's no way to access the shallower pool due to slippery ledges at the entrances under the water meant for people to lie on in shallow water - impossible for the mobility challenged.There was a pool chair lift that was inoperable during our cruise and, if it were, one questions why it was at the pool that was all a depth over 5...."Read More

1-10 of 13 Celebrity Constellation Cruise Reviews for Gay & Lesbian to the Southern Caribbean
Took the 10 day Caribbean cruise leaving Tampa on April 7, 2023.
Pros: Embarkation port of Tampa - a 1 1/2 hour drive from our home. Smaller ship, easier to navigate for one of us with mobility issues. Pleasant staff throughout. Clean concierge balcony stateroom that seemed updated in some respects (not others), unlike some previous reviews - no torn curtains or shower curtains. Bathroom ...
Having had a lovely cruise in Sept aboard the Millenium we were looking forward to this B2B in the Caribbean. There was a bit of confusion at the port with times not being well marked until port personnel started calling by entry time. After that a breeze, we were in our cabin 28 minutes from Uber drop off. Our cabin changed from deck 7 as we had anticipated, we were placed in a lovely cabin on ...
In what was to be our fifth cruise on the Celebrity Constellation - and likely our final sailing due to the ship's slated repositioning to Europe, the Mideast and an Asian base in the coming year - we were eager for an interesting itinerary on a ship we had come to love. This "grand dame" of Celebrity's Millennium class ships is becoming somewhat obsolete by today's standards for larger, ...
Let me begin by saying, we always have a good time when cruising. It's a wonderful vacation experience with food, service and entertainment. However, we all may have a different opinion on level of quality, etc. and we all can have a difference of opinion regarding the ship. That being said, our opinion regarding the Constellation is that the ship is mediocre - as was our experience based on a ...
Our first trip with Celebrity cruise lines 9 day So. Carribbean. Ship embarkation was quick and efficient. Our rooms were ready shortly after getting on board. Rooms need updating, curtains looked like rags, bathroom grout some mold. We did enjoy the night light feature in bathroom. Also the shelf under the window good place to put things. Was unhappy that after our first night we were charged ...
Embarkation on 2/25 went smoothly, though could not go to stateroom until around 3:00 PM due to norovirus-induced cleaning.
Dinner in the San Marco -- I indicated through early registration that wife had lactose sensitivity issue, but dining room staff was unaware of this and did not get it straightened out until the following Tuesday (2/28). Meat was often dry and/or tough, and vegetables were ...
At first : I'm a German Tour guide, so please excuse my English..
For me , it was the 7. time to go on these islands. For my group it has been first time. Time before we have been sailing with the Millenium of Celebrity Cruise lines. So we thought, same company - sister ship - even "Solsticized" , so what ? But, that's what we thought...
To make a long thing short:
Embarkation was alright, ...
Of the over twenty cruises we have taken since 2000 (including 8 on Celebrity and 2 on Azamara), this was probably our least favorite. We experienced a marked decline in the quality of food and service since sailing on the Constellation in 2002.
Upon boarding, we usually head for the library to find reading material - the selection of books available was very limited and the volumes were old ...
My husband and I joined the cruise late because of bad weather, so we joined at the the first port of call, St Thomas. The embarkation was great, very quick and very personal once we contacted a member of the crew (the Cruise Director, who was great - very efficient and helpful).
Boat very good - pleasant cabin, attractive public areas, clean and nicely decorated for Christmas. Lots of ...
When we got to the ship at about 12:30, there was no "priority" embarkation -- we were lined up for customs outside the terminal .....loooong line up. Disembarkation was "unorganized" and again, there was no "priority" disembarkation.
We have sailed on the Summit in 2004, and comparing to that, the food and service was not that great. In the buffet in the morning, not once this cruise did ...
