First time ever on Carnival. Been on RCCL 5 times over 24 years. The Magic has the best food not only in the dining room, but with Guy Fieri's Pig & Anchor BBQ and Emeril's signature dishes on every night's main dining room menu, this is the ship to eat!!! I never usually order 2 appetizers or entrees, but I did on this ship. Absolutely YUMMY!
Entertainment was also top notch in the theater. ...
Loved the violins in the main entrance. They were the best entertainment on board. The comedians were ok and they had a night club however it was a different atmosphere than I like, I love to dance but I didn’t even know what was done in that night club happened in the world. They had to bring 3 fridges to the room before one worked and the hair dryer exploded in my face when I was using it. ...
!st Carnival Cruise since pre covid, Platinum status and is no priority boarding. Was directed to Platinum lounge and then not allowed in because a rude lady said it was full. So we boarded with others when our zone was called. We went the same way the other 30 people went to go up the escalator, the same rude lady stopped us after we let 3 wheelchairs go in front of us, she then told us this line ...
Although embarkment was rough, it was an overall great experience. The ship before us caused us to be delayed for several hours (which wasn't normal). We got over that pretty quickly once we had a yummy cocktail in hand. My husband and I ate at the steakhouse the first night which was AMAZING! The food and service was outstanding. There were long lines for the buffet so we ate at the dining room ...
It was fun until time to get off the boat. That was slow and tedious
The dinning room service and food were very good and an enjoyable experience. The room service was always on time. They now charge for items that were includied it n the past. The shows and comedy where very entertaining. The late night snack have become less. The pizza lines were too long but got 5 bucks you can get ...
We left from Miami. They were not following any boarding zones. I heard that customs held up letting people off the ship before us. So the line to board was long but it went fairly quickly.
We enjoyed the ship. Water slides and ropes course were fun for kids. Pools were never too crowded but hot tubs were.
Food was all pretty good. There were long lines on the lido deck. Guys ...
My family has been on a couple Carnival cruises before this one. I've broken up the main categories into subsections. Go straight to the bottom for a review of the Cheers drink package.

Although the Magic is one of Carnival's larger ship sizes many of the places people like to congregate for shows or activities are easily accessible and packed close together so you don't have to ...
My family and I went on our 4th Spring Break cruise on the Carnival Magic. We left from Miami. We left on a Sunday and parking at the cruise terminal took forever as it was at capacity from all the ships that had let on Saturday. Once parked, we basically walked on the ship. We had FTTF and went right to our room to drop off our carry on bags. Our Sign and Sale cards were already there and ...
We cruise regularly and overall liked the Magic. Embarkation in Miami was a little delayed but overall we weren’t bothered by it knowing we were going to have a Guy’s burger as soon as we got on! . We were also pleasantly surprised to see that the pig and anchor BBQ was also on embarkation day as well as days at sea. That’s also awesome. This was my first time cruising gluten free and went to ...
This was our 3rd cruise, all on Carnival. Our first cruise was on the Breeze in 2015 and we liked the layout of the Breeze, and the Cove balcony room. That was one reason for choosing the Magic. This was our first time in the Western Caribbean.
We flew to Miami on Saturday, March 2nd. We rented a car from Budget and had made a prepaid reservation. I cannot recommend Budget. Once we ...
