we chose this cruise for the stops. out of the 16 of us that went 8 of us would not go on that boat again. the handle to the door on the balcony was very hard to operate. the service at most of the outdoor and casino bar was slow, it regularly took 20 minutes to get a drink when sitting at a machine or table. seemed like on sea days one of the buffets was always closed and the lines were long. red ...
This was the second time in two years on this beautiful ship. Embarkation was a breeze. I was on the ship in less than 10 minutes from the time I was dropped off. I had a great cabin with two bathrooms and oceanview. The ship was very clean and the food very good. I ate in the Steakhouse twice, had lunch in the Asian and Italian places and enjoyed the main dining very much. I also had a great ...
We selected this cruise because we wanted to do a back to back cruise with an earlier Celebrity cruise out of the same port. The Cruise Director was fabulous and made the activities more enjoyable then they would have been if someone less dynamic was in charge.
While the shows were good, the seating in the theater was a disaster. Many of the rows of seats were the same level as the the one ...
I choose this cruise because im a frequent cruiser and I love visiting the different caribbean islands. we did the exotic southern caribbean cruise from Port Miami. Every thing was smooth for checking in. However I realized that the Carnival is becoming boring as they keep going same islands. The ships are almost same layout and its not like a wow experience anymore. The ships are getting bigger ...
My friends chose this cruise. We wound up with an inside cabin, it was comfortable and more room than I expected. Embarkation was miserable, only one entrance point available and went very very slowly. Entertainment was wonderful - only criticism was that there was a different show every night so did not get to see them all. The fist comedian was funny, but a little mean to guests in the ...
Embarkation was very slow. We were given time to embark and told if we missed window that we would go to end of line. We dashed from airport to makeit on time and found they only had one gangplank open and were not going by time. We went to the end of the line and it took about 2 hours to embark.
Food in dining room and Horizons buffet was no better or worse than any other ship. Lines in ...

We just got back from our Jan. 2018 Sailing and we did have a great time. It was a rough first couple days because of the weather but the Captain did the best he could. We were the only ship to make it into our first port. I had heard that a few others werent able to get in.
This was our 3rd Carnival cruise and I have to say that the food was the best on this sailing. BBQ and Guys Burgers ...
I was able to score a Havana Balcony and the itinerary was excellent. Never cruised out of Miami and was a little hectic compared to Galveston.
Havana Balcony on deck 5 was expensive but well worth it. Spent majority of sea days on Balcony or in back of ship. Never went to Lido (other than for food), there wasn’t a need. I can’t say I would book again just due to the expense, but LOVED ...
This ship is by far much nicer and prettier than ships like Glory and Conquest. One nice addition was a promenade level that allowed us to go from the back of the ship to the front without going through the smoke filled casino. As usual, the music was loud but at least not in most places where you traveled along the ship. Lots of chairs and more places where you could sit outside and stay out of ...
