Wanted a winter get-away to the warm weather. We had a pretty good cruise experience all around. Our cabin was always cleaned every day but not at the time requested.
We ate in the Washington dining room for evening meals It was great! We made some good friends from sharing a dinning table who ended up spending a lot of time playing cards with us. That was so much fun!
We did not go to ...
We wanted a shorter but not 3 day cruise and to different places other than long beach port. Got to go with friends for first time and it was great to have people t do things with when hubby wanted to lounge on balcony. Galveston seemed a reasonable distance for us and worked out good, but will fly next time. The 17 hour drive from phoenix was killer.
We stayed over night in Galveston and ...
My wife's family set the cruise up last year as a family reunion cruise. The boarding process was what I expected with as many people as it was, but it went fairly smooth. The staff were great. Our cabin stewart was wonderful. Orlando, the cruise director, was attentive, funny, engaging. An all around people person. The food was great and available when you were hungry. I probably ate too ...
This was the very first cruise for both my 17 year old son and I. He has moderate autism spectrum disorder and global developmental delays, so I was very anxious about our trip. We chose the 5 day cruise out of Galveston for our first one due to timing and length. We got lucky with an earlier spring break than most of Texas.
Everyone on board couldn't have been nicer or more accommodating! Our ...
We were originally booked on the Freedom and she was having some engine trouble so they brought the Valor in from the Bahamas and took us on what was scheduled as a 5 night Caribbean cruise. My hubby & I just needed a few days away from the daily grind to relax. We enjoyed the atmosphere. Our excursions were very informative. We even set out on our own and hired a private taxi to take us around ...
Well we are seasoned cruisers that have taken cruises on several cruise lines Carnival among them.... I will start with that the Cabin 7347 Balcony was good, clean what you can expect lots of storage...no real issues...The Valor itself was clean, in good condition. The cabin service was outstanding...our cabin attendant made us feel at home and very friendly.....Now a little back ground on our ...
My husband, and I booked this cruise back in April (2016). We were both first time cruisers and were excited to be going. All hell broke loose in November literally 3-4 weeks before we set sail when we received an email that they had shortened our cruise from a 4 night to a 3 night Bahamas Cruise due to Carnival repositioning the Valor to Galveston Texas and the Liberty to Port Canaveral. Once we ...
This is the first time cruise experience with my family and friends. We are family with 2 kids. All of us enjoyed it very well.
Boarding: Super fast. Well coordinated. Lunch was waiting for us as soon as we boarded
Staff: Very friendly, always remember our names incl kids
Rooms: Very neat and tidy. Every day it was neatly made and well maintained. Small and compact keeping our needs in ...
I’ve been a huge Carnival fan for decades. I’ve been on more cruises than I can count beginning in the late 70’s as a teenager. I have Platinum status in the VIFP program and have sailed on just about every ship Carnival has offered out of Port Canaveral on the short Bahamas cruises. I have always found Carnival to be a bargain compared to the other lines sailing out of this port, and this ...
Very enjoyable cruise with friends. Third cruise on Carnival for me and 5th cruise over all.
The ship itself was very nice. There were too many people at the Lido buffet for breakfast so ate in the dining room for breakfast and that was very nice. Eating lunch at the buffet was okay but there seemed to be dirty dishes on most tables and the staff didn't seem to be very attentive, The cabin was ...
