Cruise was fun, leaves some things to be desired

The cruise was decent. I will say the food selections left a little to be desired. The food seemed like it wasn't as good as the last cruise we went on and the portions were way too small. Also, one pool for an entire ship worth of people is enough to make me not go on this cruise again. There we so many people crammed in the pool it was a bit much to try to find a spot to get in. Rinsing off in ...

The staff was very friendly! Especially our room steward Ketut! He was so polite and helpful. He really made us feel welcome.

This was our first cruise so we wanted to try a cheaper option. The ship did not disappoint. There were so many things to do and endless food options. While the buffet and pizza was delicious our favorite was the Guy Fieri burger place. The ship was very clean and all the staff were so helpful. Our favorite was the room steward Ketut. He was efficient and so helpful with any questions we had. We ...

Room: We cruised with friends on the 7/24-7/29 sailing to Nassau and Bimini. The embarkation process went really smoothe, compared to other sailing we’ve been on. However, my family was on the 7th deck. Room was so hot! We asked for a Dan and luckily I had brought 2 usb fans after seeing reports from previous passengers that deck 7 rooms were hot. Unfortunately, that was not the only negative! We ...

Chose this cruise because it fit the schedules of 4 adults. This is an older, smaller ship, but the ship was in good condition. The crew was professional and very service oriented. The food was good, especially considering the number of meals being prepared. The cruise is seriously overcrowded. Yes, cruises are crowded, but this one seemed to be more so, perhaps because of summer and more than two ...

So my family has been taking annual trips on Father’s Day for about 18 hrs now. E found this cruise with the same dates so decided to go for it! Carnival didn’t disappoint! I read reviews and surveyed anyone I could find who had cruised before. Mixed reviews but surprisingly I encountered many who had been on this cruise. The ship is beautiful but slightly dated. I was fine with that. I thought ...

We live locally & wanted something we did not have to travel far to reach the ship. We have cruised with Carnival many times but have not done so since before covid and children. Our cabin was a quiet retreat that fulfilled our need to relax & unwind. We were a bit surprised by the bathroom set-up that did not permit my husband to use the toilet paper roll while in its's holder. (no leg room) ...

My husband and I traveled with 2 other couples (all 4 first time cruisers). I'm at gold status so I was able to get a deal when booking this sailing, and did the booking for the others. I purchased "Faster to the Fun" and had an extremely quick and easy process when getting on board, maybe an hour in total. Once on board we dropped our stuff off at the room and went to the buffet for some ...

I have cruise with Carnival four time in 6 years. It is normally a great experience. My last crews was not so. 1st. I was told I would have a $200.00 credit to cruise again, I never received the credit. When I ask, I was told it was given to another party of my group who was on there first cruise. Secondly, my toilet would not flush, I had to wait four hours for someone to come, I had to use a ...

Fun cruise but music TOO LOUD

We enjoyed the cruise from Tampa to Cozumel with one exception. The music on the pool deck and performances in walkways were so loud that it was painful to be anywhere near the area. Even with earplugs! I've been on lots of cruises - including other Carnival cruises - and this is the first time the music volume has been too loud. I hope the cruise director will tone it down on this ship so people ...
