Pacific Coastal Romantic Cruises Cruise Reviews

A group of friends have done this cruise every year for the last few years and we decided to join them this time. They selected the Carnival Imagination because that had the right dates that were being sought. Have to tell you it was the worst cruise I have ever been on. Here are the reasons why: 1. Our room on the Empress deck was freezing cold the entire trip. The Carnival website says ...

My husband and I had previously cruised on Cunard and Royal Caribbean (11 times total) and were looking for a short "introduction to cruising" cruise experience for his brother and wife who would be going with us. Carnival was a poor choice on many levels. PROS: The ship's public areas are clean, festive, and lovely. The theater for stage shows is beautiful. It's obvious that the Imagination ...

This was my 3rd time on the Imagination and it just gets better and better. Like a fine wine, better with age. For those familiar with the fantasy class of ship someone has finally figured out a great use of the Atrium. The Atrium extends 5 Stories with a circular balcony around each deck. On the first night I am in a fairly noisy casino when I start hearing these loud shouts. I go out to ...

We were having a bachelorette party and it was the easiest to organize 15 girls to take a trip where we'd only have to pay one thing. The boat was moving around a lot and we all got sick. The buffet was good. The first dinner night they had a nice mushroom thing I could eat as a vegan, and the second night nothing! Not one single option for me. I asked what I should do and the waiter was ...

This is my 5th cruise with Carnival. I love cruising! My son-in-law booked and decided on Imagination. The quality of the food and the entertainment have diminished since my last travels with Carnival . My senses have experienced MUCH better in past cruises! The menu was basically the same every nite. Pool is way to small on this ship. My grandchildren ages 14, 16, and 18 walked around the ...

This was a first time cruise for me and my daughter. We were with another mother and daughter, it was their birthdays the week prior and this was a vacation we had all planned in advance to celebrate. We booked directly with Carnival cruise lines and it was an extremely pleasant process. Upon arrival in Long Beach for embarkation we enjoyed the local area, beaches and restaurants. ...

My daughter in law chose this cruise because it coincided with her 30th birthday. I've cruised many times (at least 20) and generally find Carnival to be just fine. This was generally just fine too. Pros: good food, nice staff. Cons: as a shorter cruise they don't have much for entertainment. I was also under the impression that this ship had a sushi bar, and a fish and chips restaurant. I ...

It's been a while since I've been on a cruise and was excited for this trip, although I didn't have very high expectations. Overall, it was a fun time, but we were very happy to disembark. Pros: The staff and crew were all very friendly and helpful. Our interior cabin was a decent size and cleaned twice a day. The workout center is well equipped and very nice (I was a little annoyed when I ...

My sister-in-law proposed a quick get-away vacation cruise using some of their airline miles which saved us a bunch. We chose the Catalina Island-Ensenada Mexico 4 day cruise out of Long Beach (her sister lives there). The weather can be cool in February and it started out in the mid to upper 60's. Long Beach is nice. We stopped at the Beachwood BBQ and Brewery for lunch before the cruise. ...

My husband & I decided not to sit home for once on New Years Eve. We booked the Imagination for a 3 day cruise to Mexico. It did not disappoint. We paid a little extra for "Faster to the Fun" which got us in a shorter line to check in and our room was ready when we boarded just after 12. We had a outside room cabin U148. It was plenty of room for the amount of time we were in there. The bed was ...
