My wife and I departed out of Miami purchasing the airport transfer and we were able to board right after faster to the fun, so we were on board around 12:30; pretty easy.
The first sea day we spent in the spa area which was nice but the spa's Jacuzzi was pretty small, room for about 6 people, the rest was very nice. The dining room was in the middle of the ship while they made anytime ...
My review will highlight various areas, and hopefully you can pick and choose the options you wish to read, or read in its entirety! It will be lengthy, but fairly detailed.
Summary â For all the naysayers about Carnival, I hope you will read this. Carnival is the FUN ship, which is different than a PARTY ship. Carnival wants you to have FUN. They want you to let loose, enjoy, dance, sing, ...
We went on this cruise because friends we know who cruise often were able to bring 2 people for a reduced price. I have been on one cruise before and this one was just as exceptional as that. There were constant activities and the excursions were so much fun!
Dining on the boat had its good and bad moments. If you choose to go to the formal dining area, prepare for some delicious food! Order ...
We enjoyed the unique features, the Family Harbor and the IMAX, the sky ropes course and the bike in the sky, all of it. Great trip. The only down side was that we missed Jamaica due to weather. Overall it was a great trip. Fun ship director, very engaging. Guy's burger joint and the burrito bar were terrific. Lots of options perfect for casual dining. Great room service options. Downside. ...
My daughters saw this new ship and thought it would be really cool. So we booked it. first of all, NEVER CRUISE IN THE WINTER! rough seas, no Jamaica, no sting ray excursion at Grand Cayman, water slides and those other fun things were closed almost every day of the cruisel
I had booked a handicap/modified cabin but evidently did get that. If you NEED that make sure they double check as ...
1. Get Better entertainment. The DJ sucks.
2. Food choices were average in the buffet almost the same thing every day
3. For such a large ship should had more pools and hot tubs. 1 pool in the front of the lido and one in the back.
4. Not enough shows to keep people entertain when at sea. Seriously. they has more " BUY this stuff" than anything. Jewelry sale, liquor sale- this sale. ...
Ship design is just ok, not wow by any means. Atrium is smaller, rooms are def smaller. Layout is a little confusing because of the Imax I think. Sky ride was cool but wait was 90 minutes to 2 hours. They could have used a couple more bikes up there to speed it along, plus was closed on last sea day so only 3 of us in a group of 25 were able to do it.
My biggest disappointment was the ...
Overall. I wasn't sure what to expect after reading recent reviews about this ship. This was our 8th cruise, 5 with RC and 3rd with Carnival. We picked this ship primarily because it was new and it went to islands we had never visited. I am pretty picky and can tend to be overly critical but this was one of my favorite cruises. I really couldn't find too much negative (a few cons); however, I must ...
AWful food. AWful rooms, smelled of urine and sweat. Very very rocky ride. We missed two out of four ports of call. Very expensive and disappointing. Spend your money elsewhere. When second port was cancelled, passengers scrambled to secure their own lounge chairs from the pile on the top deck. Added activiites for our "fun day at sea, included more shopping discounts. Yippee. Not. The ...
After saving all the year, after a 9 hours flight from Argentina, we took the Carnival Glory Cruise hoping our experience would be the same as it was four years ago in the Carnival Imagination.
Cabin was OK. Great Space. Bigger than in other cruise.
On day 1, they informed us in an impersonal paper letter that we weren`t reaching Half Moon Key (stop nÂș1) due to Cold fronts "All right" we ...
