We have traveled before on Carnival. This was our first trip to eastern Caribbean. Embarkation went smooth. The food and waiter in the Platinum Dining Room was very good. We ate there six nights. The buffet on the Lido deck left a lot to be desired. The breakfast buffet was not very good at all. The eggs were soupy and runny and you had to ask for the bacon. They would only give you a limited amount. We are both allergic to cigarette smoke. We like to slow dance and every bar we went into where we could dance was smoking. The karaoke bar was supposed to be smoke free, but it wasn't at all and there was no one monitoring to make sure there was no one smoking. Everywhere you went on the ship you could smell cigarette smoke. We had a balcony room and the room next to us was smoking and they would smoke on their balcony and we would have to go back inside. Also, people continually slammed the doors on the balcony both during the date and all night. Our steward was very friendly and the crew was always smiling. We will not cruise on the Carnival Glory again. Our previous cruises on the Conquest were very good. We will certainly check out the smoking situation before cruising again. Also, we both had a massage at the spa on the ship and it was wonderful, very relaxing and reasonble.
The balcony cabin was fine. There was plenty of storage room. The only
complaint about the balcony room was the noise. For some reason, people
thought you had to slam the doors from the room to the balcony. They
would wake us up all during the night slamming the doors. I think they
need to separate the smoking rooms from nonsmoking rooms.
