Review for a Caribbean - Western Cruise on Carnival Magic

A little background information on me; I am 51, DH is 56, and this was our 15th cruise together, and my 16th overall. Previous cruises have been on Princess (9), Carnival (3), and one each on HAL, RCCL, and NCL.
This cruise was booked on a whim-we were visiting family near Houston, TX, and thought why not add a cruise if I could find something affordable. So two days before the Triumph ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 40s
My boyfriend and I took a spring break cruise the last week of March 2013. This was my first cruise, his second (his prior cruise was on Carnival as well). Prior to the trip, I read what seemed like hundreds of reviews to make sure we were prepared and had everything we needed, and knew what to do/not to do on the ship. The reviews also provided us with a variety of general tips, and I feel that, ...

The day before the cruise we stayed at Howard Johnson's on Harborside drive about 5 miles from the port. The positives were that the price was very reasonable, and they allowed us to park the car there for free. Discount Cruise Parking is right across the street and we used them to shuttle us to the port and back. I shuttled all the luggage to the port, came back and picked up the other 6 people ...

Where to begin? We are mid-twenties and first time cruisers, and this trip exceeded our expectations. We will cruise with Carnival again and again.
CROWDS
we didn't spend much time at the lido deck, which is where most of the crowds seem to gather during the day. Instead we relaxed on the serenity deck or at the tides pool and it was never too crowded except for the hot tubs, which were always ...

I am 53, retired, my sister is 51 school bus driver, so this was a spring break cruise for us with my 11 yr old neice and her 12 yr old friend, who has never been anywhere much less seen the ocean or on a cruise.
Hotel prices were high in Galveston, so we stayed at Quality Inn in LaPorte TX for less than $100 the Sat prior to sailing on the 24th. It is about 35 miles to Galveston.
We used E Z ...

First of all, this is going to be a little long because I want to give the best review possible.
This was my 2nd Cruise and the first as an adult & with my wife. We were originally scheduled for the Triumph but got the MAGIC 2 weeks later with a discount.
We read posts in the forums and all the reviews for months looking for the best things to do and what to expect.
All of those horrible ...

I would like to start this review by telling you that I was extremely apprehensive about this cruise after I booked it for many reasons. One main reason was that my sister had just returned from a transatlantic cruise on the new Carnival Breeze in November and was not impressed with Carnival at all(she is an avid cruiser who has not been on Carnival for many years). I had begun my cruising years ...

We flew from Pittsburgh to Houston and went with Sam's Limosine Service to drive us to Galveston.
I would highly recommend them, they were extremely professional and right on time.
We were at the ship at 11:30 and were in line for about 35minutes which was not bad at all, line moved very quickly. We ate at the Italian restaurant which is complimentary from 12-2:30 everyday and the food is very ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 30s
My wife and I went on our first cruise ever this year. Prior to even booking said cruise, I was one of hundreds of people who scanned over the internet looking for answers to the dozens of questions that I had about the cruise and cruising in general. Some of the questions were big, like what the boat's like or what to expect when we arrive at each port, and other questions small like how much ...

This was a B2B for my birthday. Ports were Jamaica, Grand Cayman, Cozumel, Roatan, Belize, and Cozumel again. There was a generator inspection on embarkation day which delayed us 2 hours on boarding. Good thing we had our Kindles. We had lunch at Cucina de Capitano. It was so good we did it again the following week. This is a good way to avoid the embarkation day lunch madness.
We had a cove ...
