What a Disappointment!

Review for a Pacific Coastal Cruise on Carnival Spirit

What a poor cruise. May be good for families with kids, but as an older couple who went outside of school holidays, this was a disaster. Over 400 kids. We were expecting a few younger kids but not this number. As a result all pools were full and the over 18 area was full unless you got there before 9am. If you want not to be jostled/hassled by kids, I would check how many are going. The food ...

I supplied the below comments to be posted but Carnival felt it was lacking some detail so I included specific incidents so you get a much fuller idea of my last cruise. I can’t help saying we have noticed a drop in standards over the three cruises we have taken with Carnival our last being the worst by far, This being said this was the first time we actually had reason to complain. To add ...

Our party consisted of myself, my boyfriend and his two teenagers. We had cruised before, around the Hawaiian Islands on the Pride of America, so were looking forward to another great cruise. However, overall I was really disappointed. What I didn't like: First night on my boyfriend and I booked an expensive massage each, which was a real luxury for us. It was pretty good, but at the end ...

Our first cruise and we are not impressed. Drinks were too expensive we even had to pay for our drinking water in our cabin, average entertainment, most uniformed officers (except for Manuel, Eric and the Captain) ignored us and other guests. Most of the time we were sick due to the rough seas. We were hoping the ship would have had better stabilisers to not feel the motion of the waves. On ...

WE have been on this ship before but as the prices have dropped so have the amenities - the entertainment was non existent, two shows worth watching, pre recorded music, nothing whatsoever to do during the day, never spent so much time in my cabin EVER. Was bored stiff, will never go on Carnival again. So many unsupervised kids, and although they say no shorts, thongs, t-shirts at dinner, no one ...

Well this is my third cruise all with different cruise ships This is a list of things that I found during by time on board. I was travelling with my grandchildren as well so I'm not an old crumply lady if my children can control their children so should others parents and respect the other passengers. 1) Children running everywhere uncontrolled by parents. 2) People walking in from ...

My husband and I are in our late 40s. We traveled with kids 13 18 19 and 20 and had two cabins. The only one that enjoyed this cruise was our 13 year old the 3 young adults all have said they would never cruise again. My husband and I have never crusised befour and I can only say I never will again. This ship never stops vibrating my 18 year old and myself felt sick the entire time. The ...

"The Dome pool is so named as it has a retractable roof, which can be slid across during inclement weather." Rubbish. We had such bad weather the slides, golf, sports area and single ping-pong table were closed for most of the trip, and it too windy and cold for the pools to be used except by the most hardy, yet the roof was not closed. When asked, the service desk said the roof cannot be ...

The cruise was cheap until we boarded the ship. My wife and I have had many cruises in Europe and unfortunately i am copmparing the Carnival spirit to them. The up side was that the room was great and very clean. SAhower and ammenities worked well. The down side was: Food was very poor in quality and temparature in the buffet The restaraunt paying a extra $40 for a meeal was very good ...

Expected Better from Carnival . I have been on Princess Cruises several times before AAA++ and wanted to try a different cruise line. Had a Group of 18 . Where to start , Boarding Ok except for the Wine being taken off us on embarkation no big deal but still on Princess you can bring one bottle per person. Buffett layout is horrible compared to other ships and food in buffett is average. Pizza ...
