Getting there
Brian and I booked the Panorama to the Mexican Riviera last year for our Spring Break cruise. We took advantage of a very rare free Cheers promotion, and used it to the fullest!
We took the chance of flying from Las Vegas to Long Beach the morning of the cruise. It was a little stressful, but we took the first flight in the morning, with plenty of flights throughout the day ...
We went on a cruise to the Dominican Republic and Grand Turk, and one of the best experiences was the crew, like they go above and beyond to the fullest extent to make sure I had the time of my life, there was 3,900 passengers aboard and they still remembered our names, and always asked how we was doing, if they can get us anything, I mean hands down the crew was spectacular, so hats off to ...
The live music around the ship was really good. The ship was clean and the staff were friendly and attentive. The food was so-so. I didn’t really care for the food available around the pool (which should probably be improved bc the service was very slow and just okay tasting). Didn’t love the Lido deck food, which all looked about the same to me. Would have loved a different section of gluten free ...
Food was awful. Ship was outdated. Staff were nice and pleasant. The ship was constantly in your pocket from the time you sail away until the last day. It is definitely a party boat. Comedy show we saw was good. Nuasau was a nasty trashy place. When we asked staff where the beach was they said walk 20 minutes and make rights. The place was trashy, bums, locals harassing you. The beach had glass, ...
My steward was amazing, but I will never cruise again. I feel like we spent our entire vacation waiting in lines. Whether it be waiting for a drink, waiting for food, waiting to get off the ship, waiting for an elevator, waiting in line for our excursion, or waiting in a line to get back to the ship/ on the ship after an extremely short excursion… I feel that my money would have been better spent ...
Had a suite room had a tub only no shower. Very disappointed! We are in our early eighties and climbing into and out if a bathtub not safe or easy for seniors. Luckily we had a decko drain along the tub on the floor and our Room steward brought in a handicap bathroom seat and we took our showers beside the tub right out on the floor. The other complaint on all ships seems to be furniture ...
First, I apologize for this novel but I do like to provide thorough information for others to reference! I have sailed twice on Disney Cruise Line (2018-2019) and five times on Royal Caribbean (2022-2023). I’m a travel agent and looking to expand my offerings and the best way to do that is to keep sailing! I live on the west coast and Carnival has a noticeable presence here year round, so I found ...
We chose because it was West Coast (easier for traveling for us from AK) and week before Spring Break.
The food quality has gone down tremendously.
The service was good and entertainment ok but if you aren’t a late owl be prepared to miss most deck or theme parties since they all started at 10:30 or 11pm.
The 15-17 age group seemed like they didn’t do much to engage kids together and my ...
This was my 3rd carnival cruise, 2nd out of JAX... first was the ecstasy, then sunshine out of Charleston then this ship again out of JAX. The ship itself was ok, clean rooms, pretty consistent with the other 2 carnival ships I've been on. One thing I love about carnival is their customer service. Everyone is so friendly and eager to help! My son (5) was obsessed with the camp ocean team he wanted ...
Shows this cruise because it fit my schedule and the price was reasonable. However, the food at the Monet dining room. Very good food I give the food at the Monet dining room along with the service five stars.
The ship does show its age it’s got rusted out parts on the ship, we can see holes nothing would make it see worthy.
The reason why I will never go on Carnival again is because they ...
