Never with Carnival
2-5 Cruises • Age 30s

My husband and I have cruised several times with Carnival. Each time, through the years we have noticed a change for the worst. Ths last trip was it. Never again with Carnival. 1. The bedding had stains... see attached picture. 2. Can't seem to clean the bedding, but took a half a day away from using our balcony to clean it. They cleaned our balcony, that we paid to use, during our trip. ...

It was cheap and the dates were good for our Grandsons 18th birthday celebration. We went Dec 18-23 2023 just arrived at port to see all the ruined flooded cars from the cruise before us such a tragedy! First of all our cruise was delayed 5 hours it took us from 530 to 10pm to board the ship. All they gave us was 25.00 a piece cruise credit for our delay! Next there were so many kids and their ...

Cruise director is rude, roofs leak, AC is terrible. Much of the wait staff is rude and cuts you off when walking in common areas. Wifi is terrible do not waste your money, visible rust in metal surfaces, the only guys i enjoy interacting with are the state room attendants. Food is terrible. As a customer that has used carnival for their cruises exclusively this is the worst experience i’ve ...

We chose this cruise because of its affordability and the amount of good things I have heard about it. WRONG! Maybe my standards are higher than others but this trip was not good. The positive things were the employees were always nice. Though most could not speak or understand English. I thought this a bit odd as we traveled out of Charleston, SC and most if not all guest spoke English. The best ...

This was the my first cruise and it was the worst experience that I have ever had... the rooms were flooded out and there was a mold smell/musty smell and the food was awful. They help me to my room when we first got on but didn't help at all when we got ready to go and I am disabled and needed help. My skin was irritated by something inside of the room . When I came home i had bit marks and ...

Aging ship and bad food

My significant other chose this cruise as a family and friends vacation. The smoothest part was leaving the ship on the last day, but that was just the best luck we had the whole trip. She’s much more of an avid cruiser than me. It’s been 10+ years since my last cruise. The food was worse than hospital food-all of the food-(and I know this because I work in a hospital). It’s very obvious the ship ...

This was my very first cruise and most definitely will be my last! This experience was horrible. the ship is old & outdated! The food was horrible & all began to taste & smell the same. The selection was even piss poor in both the formal dining area & also the lido marketplace. The cabins & water sources smelled like recycled urine & feces! I didn't pay for the drink package but wish i did after ...

Having been on multiple lines, I was looking forward to being back on Carnival. This was for a 4 night out of Charleston, SC. Unfortunately, Carnival disappointed on multiple levels. I knew going in that this was an older ship but it had been refurbished in 2012 and I was hoping that the last 2 years would have given Carnival time to fix things on this ship when getting it back for ...

That about sums it up. From the food to the activities to the spa, it was awful. The only good thing was the waitstaff and room steward. The food was dull and the choices limited. The spa is a scam and overpriced. Except for the waitstaff and our room steward, the rest of the staff was rude and unhelpful. Our shore excursion was cancelled and the cruise did nothing to accommodate the cancelation. ...
