Christmas Cruise- Very Disappointed-Never Again

Review for a Bahamas Cruise on Carnival Sensation

6-10 Cruises • Age 50s

We are are family of four and we cruise every Christmas and then some. This has to be our 6th Carnival cruise and we are rating it as one of our worst. We chose this particular 6 night cruise because we had time constraints. Embarking was almost foolproof, very organized and it took us less than 45 minutes to get onto the ship. The Sensation is a smaller ship than we are used to but that wasn’t ...

I’ve been on a few carnival ships but Sensation would have to be the most boring that I’ve experience. This ship lacked entertainment!!! Although the cruise director Dion was very entertaining and super funny and friendly, the ship did not have much of anything going on while we were at sea... they not only need more shows but more variety. There was one nightclub(hip hop every night) which was ...

Highly recommend priority boarding option. There was a very long line regardless if you had an appt. Loved George's food outside of the gate in Bahamas. Carnival should really allow/bring the Bahamas experience inside the gate giving people a cultural experience...we would have never know they were there if we didn't hear the live music outside the gate. Its wonderful, that's why people ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 50s

Carnival sensation was a wonderful ship. Although one of the oldest. I had read some bad reviews but I have to see for myself. I appreciate the reviews because it helped me decide. This ship was recently redecorated from what I read. It was beautiful! Our cruise director deon was so fun and hella funny! He made the cruise worth it. He is full of energy! Can sing and dance. Kept us up on the ...

So let me start off by saying if this is your first cruise it will probably exceed your expectations because you have nothing to compare it to. However this is my third cruise and the third cruise line I’ve taken . In the past I’ve taken royal Caribbean and Norwegian. Carnival cruise line came in last place. I’m going o review the cabin, staff, food, and activities. The cabin: (3/5) The cabin ...

My cousin chose this cruise for her 28th birthday. We overall enjoyed ourselves because we have a good time no matter where we are. But i must say carnival nickels and dimes you for everything. The fee for wi-fi is outrageous. Fresh clean drinking water is a rare commodity. The water you get from the soft drink dispenser taste like sewer water. The only soft drinks they offer after breakfast is ...

We booked this 5 day cruise for the price and the ports. It was our 5 year anniversary and we decided on a cruise. Overall, it was "ok". We enjoyed the 3 ports (Nassau, Half Moon Cay & Turks) and our dune buggy excursion. There were too many children on the cruise, for my taste. The ship, on the other hand, needs some major updating and additional restaurants. We found the food to be bland. ...

I chose this cruise for the price and to test the waters with my family. I have cruised previously on RC, with my mother and wanted to go with my own family. I should have went with RC. The Sensation is an older ship, but it wasn't as dirty as others have posted. Any of the food areas are a joke and if I never see another hamburger again, it will be too soon.There were some nights where my ...

I choose this cruise for the entire family (14), 4 cabins. We had first timers and recurring cruisers. Our embarkation was fast and smoothly for all of us. I had every one doing their check in online , definitely recommend ,which help with the transition. For disabled assistance, the check in was fast too. I had requested wheel chair assistant for my parents ahead of time. We had 4 children ...
