Carnival Melbourne Cruise Reviews

Did a 3 night cruise and loved it. Great ship, great entertainment, alcohol at pub prices, comedy club fantastic, cabin we booked an interior but got a free upgrade to balcony which was good. I don’t get sea sick but did need to take sea sickness tablets as our first night was rough. Thoroughly recommend. Ship didn’t feel crowded lots of spaces including serenity deck for peace and quiet. If you ...

The crew, security and cleaning staff were all stellar. Melbourne folks are an absolute blast to party with. Carnival Liberty sells more alcohol than any other ship in the fleet largely due to the good folks from Melbourne's love for celebrating life to the fullest! If your looking for a glass-half-full trip then this is the one. It's also largely suitable for families, we could see no ...

I now know why there are bad reviews for this ship on this and other sites , it's the passengers not the carnival spirit !! Our embarkation in Melbourne was problem free and we were able to access our stateroom after a drink and walk around.

We read the usual blogs which complained about there being too many kids, food wasn't great, unclean rooms, etc, but we can't ...

Having taken a two night sampler on Dawn Princess, we followed up by another cruise on Dawn Princess to view the total eclipse of the sun in November 2012. This cruise we traveled from Newcastle to Melbourne by train, with overnight stops at Campbelltown and Albury where we were able to visit my wife's ...

After reading many negative reviews on various site regarding Carnival Spirit I feel that I need to add my opinion to the mix. From the time of booking this cruise until the date of departure it was a positive experience even getting an upgrade from an obstructed view to a Balcony. Check-in was a smooth process from the time of of arrival at Station Pier to the arrival at our room. Luggage ...

Embarkation: Brilliant, we had VIP but it would not have mattered it was very efficient we were on board in less than 20 minutes. Dining: Empire Room Dining, first class each time we went was a new experience staff as through-out the whole ship were fantastic. Always smiling, courteous, attentive and wonderful to interact with, we loved the Dining room entertainment each time we were there it ...
