Constellation Solsticized Martini Bar Photos

A friend who posts here as JCross2 just got on the Connie for her first voyage and sent these photos of the Martini Bar:

 

Thanks for the pictures Larry.

 

Were there any comments on the state of ongoing upgrades?

 

The split Cova area was also due for a makeover and there was to be a wine area next to the Bistro.

 

You can guess I'm very interested in news about my home away from home.:D

WOW!! Can't wait!! Our first trip on the Connie is July 3rd! We've sailed on the Summit and loved it! I KNOW we'll be spending time in the Martini Bar - my husband's favorite drink!

 

Thanks SO much for posting!!!!!!!!!!:)

You're welcome, but the credit goes to Jan (jcross2) who emailed them to me. Of course by now I'm sure she's enjoyed a martini there!

 

The bar looks great - I'm a tiny bit worried that it might be a bit small compared to the old martini bar, especially for some of those busy nights. Maybe I'll bring an extra sport jacket and put it on a chair mid afternoon (an old paperback and some cheap sunglasses doesn't sound right for the Martini Bar).:rolleyes:

Am curious to know if the dance floor is in view of the newly renovated bar area?

 

The Rendezvous dance floor is a long way away but on the same deck.

Your home away from home? You centurion, I would die a happy little cruiser should I reach that most glorious 100 mark, your life is so special! Happy sailing!

Larry, thanks so much for posting those pics!

 

I think the Martini Bar area has more seating than it looks like it has, since there's a seating area on both sides of the atrium.

 

The new staterooms are also lovely; ours is a 2C balcony. It has new carpet, a flat screen tv, and new curtains, one sheer and the other solid.

 

Most all of the upgrades are complete; they are hoping to soon open the Bistro on Five (during this cruise, they said) and the Tuscan Grille.

 

They have enlarged Ocean Liners, and it now has a very large table near the front.

 

I've heard there is a little work going on with carpeting on the pool deck, but haven't been up there yet.

 

The iced counter in the Martini Bar is amazing!

 

Will try to post a page with more pictures, as the Internet connection is running faster than I expected!

 

Jan
