Carnival Eastern Caribbean Cruise Reviews

I have been on about 10 cruises and while this ship is nice the design flaws and management are terrible. It was an ultra cruise targeting gamblers (which alot of them are). The Casino was 90 degrees and had no bathroom and no bar. If you wanted to get one of your "free drinks while playing in the casino" you had to hope the bar staff reached you before you passed out from the heat. My first ...

This ship was built for 3,960 guest. After boarding we found that 4,400 guest we on board. Long lines for food, entertainment, not enough lounge chairs and we were enroute to Aruba, for 2 days. After getting back from excursion there was no food. It was a hurry up and wait for anything the entire cruise. Over crowding in the limelight lounge for music and dancing was bad but the they ...

This was our first Carnival experience, and it was completely upsetting, and we would not recommend the ship at all let alone recommend Carnival Cruise lines. We typically do not complain at all because we know things are never to be perfect, but this was an experience that we never want to experience again. We had a balcony room and the people in room next to us smoked pot and it made it where ...

We initially chose this cruise based on the number of sea days (four) and ports we hadn't cruised to before (Amber Cove, Grand Turk & Half Moon Cay). We were warned about cruising on Carnival out of New York due to the crowds, etc., and failed to heed the warning. Our worst cruise so far and we most likely won't sail Carnival again, especially out of New York for a number of reasons. ...

This was my husband's first ever cruise and it was my 5th cruise. This was the worst cruise experience I have ever had and an absolutely terrible experience for my first time cruiser husband. Some of the items on this extensive list may be nitpicky to some, but as one thing after another went wrong or were well below expectations due to previous cruises with Carnival and other cruise lines, we ...

The lack of good service on this cruise was ridiculous! Workers pushing carts would plow you down if you didn’t get out of the way! Who ever shouted the loudest got served next at bars because there was no orderly que. The much-marketed Guy Fieri BBQ restaurant was closed most of the days of our cruise. The food in the buffet was horrible…it was over cooked or undercooked, meat or chicken was ...

I went on this cruise to have fun but it was one of the WORST cruises I ever went on. Food was not vegetarian friendly, they had ONE dish for vegetarian and it was the same dish every night. The food service was slow. Also my swimsuit was STOLEN by the staff. I left it hanging on the wall and before we even got off the boat I went to check and it was gone apparently nowhere to be found. The crew ...

My husband and I have cruised on Carnival 8 times and in the past we really enjoyed it. Before this last cruise we had a bad experience, this was before Covid. Because of the bad experience we chose not to cruise for awhile plus Covid happened. I felt with all the Covid shots we had received it was safe enough to cruise again. My husband has dementia and I wanted to take him on a cruise while ...

This was our 23 Carnival cruise and was extremely disappointed. Upon our first use of shower the bathroom flooded. The first meal staff was scraping and stacking our plates at our table as we ate desert. We were served raw and I mean raw meat twice on lido. The eggs looked like soup. Everything was Luke warm at best many items have been removed. Only half the buffet was open on a full ship. ...

Our recent trip on Carnival was one that I wish we never booked. The boat is older and the employee's are angry. The boat is boring and the Cruise director is not very creative. The activities were more for assisted living entertainment. The shows were very good but it you spend two days at sea and the entertainment is Trivia and Bingo. The pools are just tubs. You can't swim in them and there ...
