The pros:
-The ship is new, beautiful, with many activities at any given time
-The Serenity pool/bar area for adults only is large with plenty of loungers and sun beds. We never had an issue finding a spot even later in the morning.
-Drink service on departure day - you won't have to look for this - you will be swarmed. Your drink package does not apply on day 1 so I am guessing ...
This was the worst cruise i have ever been on in 26 cruises. Every single service area has something wrong with it. The marketplace lido deck did not have working water machines. It was nothing bacon or regular sausage for days until the last day of the cruise. The guest services refuse to provide service and was very argumentative and did not want to provide service to platinum guests. The ...
I will start by saying the staff was nice. But... Our room smelled like sewage and arm pits. The food was disgusting every night. There were no activities. This ship is old and very out dated. We had a family of five. Our king bed was two twin beds unevenly put together. Our children beds were in the wall, it took over 2 hours for someone to come and assist with pulling them out. I have cruised ...
This cruise was very disappointing for us,the cabin smells like urine all the time ,the adults got a small swimming pool,plus for the area for kids as a call them “water work” doesn’t have a pool for little ones instead they have one big slide and three little ones actually I never been at this rate of worst cruise ever ,the only thing it was worthy is the service special in Destiny’s restaurant ...
From start to finish this was a subpar vacation for our kids. Way too crowded, buffet was not good & worse of all was that the service sucked. Trying to find a fun, charismatic bartender was not possible. We couldn't even try to throw out extra mobey for decent service. Pathetic! Then to top it off, post sailing we get a reimbursement check for an overcharge. Then 2 weeks post sailing we get ...
Carnival Review
Our first cruise and I said to my wife, trying to explain the level of failure and the level of care regarding the buffet quality is basically saying if Walmart had a buffet, this would have been it, and Luby’s would probably still have given them a run and still lost. The food was absolutely the most disgusting thing I have ever seen attempted to be put as meals, and that’s ...
Embarking on the Carnival Cruise from Tampa, Florida, from March 10th to March 16th, 2024, was an unforgettable experience that exceeded all expectations. The highlight of our journey was the exceptional service provided by our stateroom attendant, Antara. His attention to detail, warmth, and dedication to ensuring our comfort made our stay on the Carnival ship truly special.
Moreover, the ...
TL/DR: Enjoyable week on Carnival Horizon, with pros being cruise director, Paradise Beach Club, Production shows, and free food; Cons: buffet food, MDR food, and guests can get rowdy/loud/rude, especially as the week goes on.
My wife, daughter and friend (all adults) went on the 6 night Western Caribbean sailing on Horizon out of Miami in March. Overall, we enjoyed the cruise, but left the ...
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 have traveled with Carnival many times, but this time was ridiculous and dissatisfying from the moment we boarded to the day we left. To start, our bags never arrived. We had to go to deck eight to guest service to see where our bags were. They were over by the elevators with other bags, which was so unfortunate. Then, no one helped us take them to our cabin! On the third day, breakfast took ...
