Just returned from the five day Key West, Cozumel run on the Constellation. Very nice relaxing cruise. Only a few minor problems (for us - maybe a bit more major for others). We spent the night before the cruise at the Renaissance, only a few blocks from the ship. We were able to leave the car in their garage for $10 per night and shuttle over to the cruise. What a deal - and a really wonderful hotel to boot.
Took the shuttle over to check in - check in was flawless. We got out of the van and onto the ship in about 20 minutes. Have never experienced such an efficient check in. We checked most of our bags and carried the rest up to the buffet for a light lunch. Food was very good - but that was the last time we ate at the buffet. Our rooms were ready quite quickly and we went down to unpack the bags we carried. Before we were done, the rest of our luggage arrived.
We were in cabin 9038 - Aqua Class - our steward and his assistant were wonderful and the perks you get with Aqua Class are worth the price.
Great cabin with a huge balcony because of its bump location.
