A little background: This was our second cruise with Carnival. We have been on 7 cruises total- 2 with Carnival and the rest with RCI. We first sailed with Carnival on the Fascination with good friends who are Platinum with Carnival. After that sailing we decided to stick with RCI. We gave in for this cruise when some family members wanted to go on Carnival. We thought we would try again because ...
Our family of three took this cruise to celebrate our daughter's 21st birthday. We've cruised Disney and Royal Caribbean, and as good as this trip was, nothing beats Disney for us. I've read and heard mixed reviews on Carnival and booked with some trepidation. We had a blast, though, and we would definitely sail on the Breeze again.
We live in Central Florida and made the drive to Miami the same ...
I will probably not go on the Liberty again. Too may rude guests and not enough to do. Too many things/services to sell listed for things to do and not enough entertainment to suit me. I am not one to just stand in a pool and drink all day. All ships personnel were outstanding. All appeared to want to be there and help where ever possible. All were nice and pleasant.
The Cruise Director Corry was ...
We just returned from a great 7 day vacation on the Carnival Conquest. I traveled with my two sons. This is my sixth cruise with Carnival and first time on the Conquest. We booked early saver, balcony cabin on the 8th floor and we had a great time!
We arrived Sunday 8/17 at POM to drop off our luggage and went immediately inside (short line). Then upstairs (long lines) After about a one hour wait ...
After a week aboard the Sunshine, I have to say I'm pretty impressed and am likewise disappointed in the exaggerated reviews on this website about how awful the ship is. Embarkation seemed pretty quick and painless although I have nothing to compare it to. Instead of reviewing the entire ship since I have nothing to compare it to, I'm only going to go over parts of it that I feel ...
This was our first cruise on Carnival. We have sailed Holland America Lines on 7 previous cruises. The embarkation was quick and efficient in Port Canaveral. We parked at the satellite parking lot across from the Radison in Cocoa Beach for $7.95 a night. The drivers handled our luggage and were nice gentlemen.
We had booked a balcony and an interior room. We were in Cabin 7371 & 7261. The ...
We have cruised many times(over 30) and this one was great except for the food. Getting on and off the ship was a breeze. We bought ground transportation from airport to ship and back but there was a little mixup on the numbers called to get off. We had # 3 and by the time they called it they had already had up to # 10 suitcases out. No big deal we made it to the airport in time for flight.
I ...
My husband and I flew from Sacramento, CA to Houston, TX, we flew in the day prior to the cruise as it is to stressful to fly from California to Houston and worry about flight delays and potentially missing the ship. We stayed at the Marriott All Suites in Houston near the Hobby Airport, they picked us up quickly and were very accomodating about taking us to a restaurant for dinner and then ...
I had been hesitant to cruise in the past with Carnival BUT did understand that changes had been made to the overall Carnival branding...so we gave it a try and booked 2 staterooms for our family of 5.
Overall, the cruise was fun and a memorable one. The demographics were wide-spread and included passengers within all age groups...not heavily weighted at all to one side or another. Great variety ...
So, we just got off or ship yesterday, with me and my husband and 4 kids.
*The embarkation process on the ship went very fast. We actually boarded earlier then we were supposed too.
*Once on the ship, the kids were amazed! They were so excited. Nothing had changed since the last time I was on the Elation. I hear they are dry docking it in September but not sure if they are going to make any ...
