Carnival Galveston Cruise Reviews

I was reluctant to cruise Carnival again due to past experiences. However, due to my better judgement I gave Carnival one final chance with their brand new ship. I assumed, that a new ship in the first month of sailing, everything should be tip top. Was I mistaken. We shall start with the embarkation. It was a complete cluster from the minute we were dropped off at the port via the shuttle ...

This was an extended family and friend's cruise. We have all been on other cruise lines. Some of us cruise more often than others, but all have been on at least six cruises over the past few years. I would say that, overall, we enjoyed the trip, but getting used to the Carnival "fun" took a couple of days. My first reaction to the open areas was, "Wow, this is like the mall used to be at Christmas ...

This was my first time on a cruise ship and my overall experience was positive. Cruise ships in general are a modern marvel. I couldn't help but smile as I boarded the massive floating city. While I was both impressed and intrigued by the size and scope of the ship. I did suspect it was nearing the end of it's use. Some areas of the ship seemed a little worse for wear. The carpet in the ...

We are first time cruisers. We are a family of five with 3 young children. I was worried about my kids' safety on board & if they are gonna be bored with the lack of activity, but there were a lot of fun activities that catered to all different age groups. The stateroom was comfortable and is cleaned regularly without us asking for the housekeeping team to clean it. We appreciate Achmad & Donnalyn ...

This was my 35th cruise, but first ever NYE cruise. This cruise was myself, husband, daughter and her husband(this was his first cruise). Embarkment was fairly quick and easy. We were on this ship by 11:45am. Dropped off our luggage at our Spa Balcony cabin on deck 12 and headed to the Lido for lunch and a cocktail. Guy's Burger was delish as always. I didn't eat at the Lido buffet all ...

Having never been on a cruise before, I booked this cruise for our family vacation for the end of last year. Well, to be clear, some things about the cruise were good, carnival earns on one star review because of how absolutely horrendous their customer service has been. Literally the worst I have ever seen from any large company in my 40 years of life. Our room on the ship was directly below ...

I have been on 14 cruises and this was the worst. I have been on Carnival 6 times prior (including this ship) and this time found it to be tired and worn out much like the staff. The ship needs some time off for repairs and simple routine care. It is the first time I have ever said a ship needed more help... I found the dining options adequate but limited. The lido buffet was always ...

Nothing like formal night, asking for reserved wine and them losing it. Then issue not being resolved until after dessert. One would think losing a $10 bottle of wine you are charging nearly $50 for would be taken care of immediately. First response was will will give you a glass at no charge. Then waiting until after the meal seemed like vengeance while they lost what I paid for. Additionally, ...

The ship itself was very nice, clean. The cruise on the other hand was a bit rocking heading to Cozumel. Which is why, I will say the service and food was a bit off from the usual, per previous sailings with Carnival. The dinner, even sea day brunch just eh this time around. The cabin, was an ocean suite and it was very nice and roomy. My wife and I enjoyed the closet space and she loved the tub. ...

We've been cruising several times in the past with Carnival and RCL. We had great impression on Carnival back to 2016 so we chose Carnival Dream to sail with our 18-month old baby. However, the entire trip was not good at all compared to our past experience. 1) Embarkation - Probably the only good part. It is very smooth. We arrived on time and check-in is very smooth and fast. 2) Food - ...
