Carnival Eastern Caribbean Cruise Reviews

We were so looking forward to this cruise because it was traveling to a couple of islands that we had never been to. First, Our luggage was late getting to our room so my husband could not change to go to dinner that night and speaking of dinner, very chaotic way of trying to organize people getting to their tables, very confusing how to use the app, and once they said our table was ready, it was ...

We chose this cruise for it's ports of call and the time of year. It was a large family trip with members flying in from all over the U.S. The check-in process was great! We had upgraded our room to larger rooms (with balcony's) at the very back (aft) of the ship. The Magic is old and in need of both cosmetic and structural repair. The thrusters were broken during the entire cruise which mean ...

We chose this cruise to sail with family. That was really the only good point. We are gold members and it's either our 7 or 8th cruise. Never able to get a deck chair. The entire ship is beat up and dated. The food was horribly disappointing. The entertainment was so very limited and just not up to carnivals usual standards. We paid for the Italian restaurant and the service was phenomenal. The ...

We went on this cruise with my family, 12 of us. It was a C- at best 1. The dining room looks like a low class dining hall. The service was fair the food was ok not great 2. Breakfast in the Dining room, need a reservation, can't just walk in. A reservation starts with a 10 minute wait. No one was in the dining room. No reason for a wait. 3. Ship was crowded, had to get to a show ...

We chose this cruise for my parents 60th anniversary.... we had 6 balcony staterooms.......... prior to sailing our PVP assured us we would have no issue getting seating in the AFT dining room...... due to medical conditions for 4 of our group we purposely selected AFT cabins to make life easier....... we were NOT granted the seating in the aft dining room even when we said we had no problem ...

My first cruise ever and I never want to cruise again… at least on carnival. 600 staff members short, and about 2k too many people for the ships size. My family and I ate in the main dining room on Monday night, and I had the worst steak I’ve ever had in my life. It was halfway to being leather. I would never recommend this cruise line.. or at least this ship. Do some research before you book, or ...

This was to be our very first cruise-so at the tender age of 67, my wife and I booked an Excel aft corner suite on the Mardi Gras. We were on deck 15-one deck below the common lounging/pool areas at the rear of the ship. While the suite was magnificent, and the wrap around balcony with our own private hot tub was beautiful, being underneath that noise machine was, in retrospect, a mistake. We ...

This was my second Carnival cruise.Boarded at Port Canaveral easy drive from Orlando so consider hiring a car if you have a few people in your group. Loved the overall look of the ship the Mardi Gras but not as easy to get familiarized and find your way around. Many dining options included and loved the layout of buffet area in smaller rooms. Dining room experience less than I am used to ...

The weather was great. Worker on the ship were fast and a dressed you with your name every time they saw you. There were alot to do on board. It was nice meeting and talking to people from all over the world. I would do it again. The sun rise and sun sets on open waters were amazing. I walked on a walking track early in the morning it was nice with the ocean fresh air. There were alot of ...

Bigger isn't better! The food was not good at all, no Dr Pepper, the soda machines were down more than not, poor service, bar tenders with bad attitudes, nobody came around to take your drink orders, very bad! When you went from bar to bar the drinks were made differently. We got a blue Hawaiian made 3 different ways on the same boat! No music playing in bars. All the food tasted the same, very ...
