Dining - When I booked the cruise, I had selected "Anytime Dining" but was actually assigned an 8:15 pm reservation for each night of the cruise. I didn't realize my dining reservation had changed until I went to one of the dining rooms and was told I had to come back at 8:15 pm because that is what is printed on the Sail and Sign Card. AT first, I thought I had made an error in booking and blew ...

I’ll start by saying this was my first cruise. The staff and crew were amazing! I have zero complaints as far as the Carnival crew goes, the people who were also on this cruise are a different story…. I’ve never seen so many rude, obnoxious, and disrespectful people in one place. Groups of teenagers roaming the ship day and night, yelling and screaming, and fighting outside of your room. Early ...

This was mine and my fiance's first ever cruise for the both of us. We really enjoyed the comedy shows, especially the big one the last night of sailing. The 'how to make towel animals' seminar was a fun little expo (special recognition to the gentleman who ran that event, he was really upbeat, cheerful, and funny). The dining experiences were really good and we loved our waiter(s), they were both ...

The only reason I am giving this 2 stars is because we had an Amazon cabin steward, the bar tenders at the Red Frog on the Lido Deck were friendly, and the manat the Java station knew my husbands name. The food in the dining room was good, and so was guys burgers. The food on the buffet was horrible and it was yhe same every night. The staff was rude and if you asked them where something was they ...

We booked this cruise for our anniversary 2 years prior & were SO excited. This is my 8th cruise and my husband’s 1st. It was underwhelming to say the least. The decor & design was tacky in the public rooms and the staterooms. The service was SO poor (besides in the atrium bar & dining room). The lido deck was superrrr tiny. The bartenders (especially on the lido deck) treated us like we were a ...

This was my first, and possibly last, cruise. The Good: 1) Excellent staff. Friendly, helpful and patient at all times. Even at 3am when I couldn't sleep that one night and wandering to the deck, I was greeted with a friendly smile and "Good Morning". 2) WAY comfortable beds. Except for one night, slept very well, even in 20-foot seas. The BAD: (brace yourself) 1) Food was pig ...

Carnival Valor was a little disappointing. I had a better time on the Elation and that ship is tiny compared to the Valor. Food in the buffet and dining room was horrible. Burgers, burritos and the Wok was good. Entertainment was ok but needs work. Just not impressed. Love and marriage show was horrible. That’s usually our favorite show of the cruise. Movies were good. Lido entertainment could ...

CONS So this was our first cruise the food was terrible. we an my wife had upset stomachs the whole time.The best thing in our opinion was the salad and we like eating over here. The first night on the boat they did not have the a/c on and we about sweat to death trying to sleep naked on top of the covers. They tried to charge us an extra $160 for tips after we were tipping like $5 for 2 ...

A group I'm a member of booked this ship. Started out with bad experience as the help I signed up for to get a wheelchair bound family member on board did not come to help. Ordered trays of fruit, veggies to our room for my low blood sugar. After 2 days and lots of contacting staff members food never showed up I said just take it off my bill. There was not ONE accessible pool or hot tub so we ...

I chose this ship Carnival Valor because Carnival always has multiple things to do on its ship comedy show, trivia games , deal or no deal. The carnival valor felt very warm overall in many areas throughout the ship, throughout the length of the trips making it very uncomfortable for guests. My room itself was measuring at 80 degrees the first day we arrived. I had to request to be switch ...
