Evaluation of the ship

Boarding the Celebrity Constellation felt a bit like taking a step back into the history of modern cruising. We are not talking about a brand new ship, in fact it was launched in 2002 and belongs to the Millennium class and has a capacity of about 2,200 passengers. Despite its age, carried quite well, the ship still offers a competitive product thanks to various "restructuring" that have kept it updated and welcoming.

The Constellation does not rely on the "wow" effect of the most modern ships, but rather on a different concept: functionality and sober elegance. It is important to remember that like all Celebrity ships, this one is also mid-high-end.

During my visit I explored the different decks and was impressed by the rational organization of the spaces: well structured restaurants with a variety of paid and premium options, a theater hosting nightly shows, and a casino.

There is no shortage of relaxation areas, such as the indoor Solarium Pool, usable even on cloudy days, something not so common for a ship of 2002. Of course, there are also outdoor swimming pools and hot tubs.

The cabins reflect the Celebrity style: clean and designed for no-frills comfort. Interiors are compact but livable , not too small as it happens in modern ships; the exteriors with or without balcony offer good brightness and are more spacious, while the suites allow a leap in quality with even larger spaces and dedicated services.

What I perceived is a more intimate atmosphere compared to the latest generation 5,000 passenger ships, there is less confusion, more livable spaces and the feeling of a more "intimate" ship.

It must be said that even the animation is sober on the Celebrity ships; the Cruise is not a tourist village and does not have to become one, this is the concept of the company, and I fully share it.

The Celebrity Constellation is not a ship for those looking for the amusement park effect but for those who want a classic, elegant and relaxing cruise experience with good service, comfort and a refined atmosphere, a product certainly different from what we are used to, probably not suitable for our market but that has its say in the panorama of international cruises.
