The ship was a bit dated and in big need of painting and refurbishing. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The food was very good. The shows were lacking for sure. They had a great band Lady and the Vamps in the Ocean Plaza and a few other great musicians but that was about it. No productions or dancing. I’m just giving you the honest opinion. A few tips were added on our receipts as ...

Absolutely Overrated

We chose this cruise due to it lining up with our kids spring break, our kids are 15 & 14. My wife and I quit drinking several years ago so your experience may differ from ours if you "partake in festivities". The onboarding process was much quicker and smoother than I expected given the amount of security you go thru. The room was neat, clean and had a large window compared to other ships that ...

My parents and I have been cruising with carnival now for quite a few years all 3 of us being platinum members this was my 26th cruise and my parents 35th now seeing carnival has started to nickel and dime for every single little thing a lot has changed from our perspective and you’d think the last people you’d want to short are your loyal guests who are frequent return cruisers highly considering ...

I am a Platinum cruiser with Carnival and have always enjoyed each and every cruise, there have been many. One of the many enjoyments is the Lido Buffet. This was my first SUNSHINE cruise, and I was disappointed. The ship is old. I always get a balcony room and noticed the rooms are smaller, and if you don't mind standing on the toilet to close the bathroom door than you'll have no problems. The ...

2-5 Cruises • Age 40s

Having cruised on the original Excel class ship (Mardi Gras) in 2022, we were looking forward to sailing on the Celebration, expecting similar entertainment quality and value. We got a big shock concerning the entertainment offerings shortly after departing. The shows featured at the center stage (the three-deck atrium) were very lackluster in comparison. There may have been a technical issue ...

We traveled with six adults and two toddlers. We were rather disappointed in the food on the entire cruise, with the exception of the specialty restaurants. - Coffee in Truffle dining room not hot (dinner) - What happened to tablecloths in dining room? - A server used to come with a bread basket to choose bread we like. This time they came with all the same bread and gave one ...

The ship was not the best . It was kept clean I will say that . But the casino is in the middle of the ship and the smoke travels all over . It’s ridiculous. And to get to the main dining room you have to walk thru it or go up a floor and then back down . It was just a stupid location. The elevators take so long . The food isn’t very good at all . The canal restaurant is where we ate . The ...

On Celebration, you need an App to check the daily schedule and to reserve your diner time. The problem is that you need to pay for the App. This should be included in the cruise price. I understand the reasoning for this application but the cruise line should provide such a service for free. I ask if there was other ways to reserve our diner time and the answer was to get to the dining room and ...

This was my second Carnival cruise.Boarded at Port Canaveral easy drive from Orlando so consider hiring a car if you have a few people in your group. Loved the overall look of the ship the Mardi Gras but not as easy to get familiarized and find your way around. Many dining options included and loved the layout of buffet area in smaller rooms. Dining room experience less than I am used to ...
