Selected the cruise for the ship, dates and cost. The Miracle is an older ship with a smaller guest size than the newer ships. The ship is well maintained for the most part but there are some issues to be aware of.
Embarkation was a little convoluted but not a problem. We were going to be parking the port and received an email about the parking structure at the pier which was not going to ...
My daughter, her husband, and my granddaughter (2 years old) invited me to go with them. This would have been my 50th Anniversary with her dad. He died 16 years ago. We were suppose to go on this cruise for our 50th Anniversary. It was very important for me to go at this time. It was a fantastic cruise. We had the best days, which we were told they only have 45 good days a year! We actually saw ...
Fortunately many negative things I read about the ship and Carnival as a cruise company did not happened to be true for us, either Carnival fixed them or we were lucky this time, but I was surprised how well everything organized: we arrived in our designated time range and in 15 min we're on the board having lunch, 1hr later our room is ready, one hour more and our luggage were delivered. ...
I stopped sailing Carnival because I was disappointed in prior cruises. I booked this one because my family had a last minute cancellation of a family camp vacation. I was very, very surprised at how good this cruise was and I would not hesitate at this point to book another Carnival cruise.
Other than embarkation, the cruise was nearly flawless. We had a set dining time (7:45) in the ...
Now that the Carnival Miracle is homeported in San Francisco, we couldn’t resist taking her for a spin. San Francisco is a beautiful city to sail from and cruising without flying saves time and money. From the pool deck you’ll have magnificent views of downtown, Coit Tower, Alcatraz and the Bay Bridge. You also pass under the Golden Gate Bridge during the sail away party. It’s all good! The ...
I saw the Carnival Miracle departing San Francisco on it's first scheduled service from the City as a new home port. The ship looked attractive, I went home and looked up the ship, found this itinerary, the price was right, so I booked it on the spur of the moment. I live about ten minute walk from the San Francisco terminal, I don't have a car, so I welcome another ship home based in San ...
For Spring Break, we didn’t want to commit our entire 10-day break to a vacation, so we opted for the 6-day, double dose of Cabo cruise on the Miracle from Long Beach. What a fabulous decision! One of my kids decided to join my husband and I, so we had three people in an extended balcony (8223). Here are my thoughts and experiences:
Transportation:
We had flights for the day of the cruise ...

We had a great time on our first cruise back since COVID. Everything was very clean and organized. Check-in went very smooth and the new muster drill format was excellent! Instead of having to stand there with hundreds of people for an extended time, they gave you a window of time to go check-in at your muster station and learn the procedure. When we went there was only about 10 of us instead at a ...
This was my first cruise, I have been following Cruise Critic for years wanting to take a cruise. I know this cruise was not normal that I will explain throughout this review. Middle of November I got a email ad from CCL. Well I had a few too many Jack & Cokes, I live about 10 minutes from the Long Beach Terminal, saw a cruise for 3 night LB to Ensenada for about $375, why not, I have vacation ...
