Review summary

Very enjoyable but Constellation has less amenities compared to Solstice class ships.  Shows were great!  Staff was very friendly and always helpful.  Aqua Class and dining in Blu is definitely worth the upgrade. The Christmas Mass was disappointing compared to services attended previously. We had a really good trip but missed the luxuries which impressed us on the larger Solstice ship.  All in all this was a great Christmas cruise.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
We definitely enjoy balcony rooms. Although the afternoon appetizers were disappointing. Green and black olives were on the tray with usually 3 nacho chips or 3 small pieces of cheese for 2 people.

Ship tip

Do indulge yourself having meals in the dining room. Service is good and there are many great choices.

Ports of call

Ft. Lauderdale (Port Everglades), Florida

3 out of 5
There is a lot you can do in Ft. Lauderdale but we went straight to Boca to spend time with family.

Cozumel, Mexico

Vendors are very anxious for you to buy! Many offered free cold water or beer. Great on a hot day. Take a taxi to downtown as it would be quite a walk. Tulum would be a great tour but we had already done that on a previous destination wedding visit.

Key West, Florida

5 out of 5
Boarded the hop on - hop off bus and had a wonderful history tour. Enjoyed lunch in a small Cuban restaurant recommended by the driver. Worth boarding a hop on/off as you can stop, shop, eat and get back on or just ride the entire route learning about Key West.
