Worst cruise experience

Review for a Caribbean - All Cruise on Carnival Magic

Misslilly1919
2-5 Cruises • Age 40s

I have been on several cruises and I’m so disappointed that I will never cruise on carnival or maybe ever again. No I’m not a Karen and I’ve not complained because if you complain… you’re a Karen right? This is my interpretation of this cruise specifically. 1- staterooms - my interior room was bigger than others I’ve cruised with. Kinda gross in carpet stains. Room doesn’t get clean bc I ...

Review for a Caribbean - All Cruise on Carnival Magic

10+ Cruises • Age 80s

I went on this cruise because someone had booked it and wanted a cabin mate. The employees are great and work hard. We had Efrem in the cabin and Jimmy in the Dining room Boarding was fun with about 20 employees dressed as characters greeting and high fiving everyone with upbeat music to welcome everyone. Carnival cabins are nice because they are large with plenty of space for your ...

Review for a Bahamas Cruise on Carnival Magic

SCruiseAMagic4
First Time Cruiser • Age 40s

I can’t stop thinking about this cruise. I mean it was amazing. From the room service, to evening dining. The servers, Rio, Frank, & Ricky, just great! Words can’t explain how great everything was. I can’t wait for our next cruise on Carnival Magic Excursion site: Grand Lucanyon Resort. Beautiful resort. I will say the food took a long time to be prepared though. Other than that, the pool & the ...

Lots to do! Food was good.

Review for a Bahamas Cruise on Carnival Magic

Night one we ate in the buffet which was good. Night 2 we went to the dining room. I had prime rib which was good. Night 3 and 4 we ate at the steakhouse. Steak and Lobster was awesome! Didn’t care for the lobster bisque- no lobster, French onion didn’t taste good either. My friend had the lamb chops and said they were really good. Night 5 back to the dining room- did the upgrade of 23.00 to get ...

Review for a Bermuda Cruise on Carnival Magic

valwyr
6-10 Cruises • Age 80s

Chose this cruise because we could drive to the starting point. At the very beginning we were assaulted with ear splitting music in the lobby where arriving passengers were held. Everything Carnival did in terms of music or announcements was at 1000 decibels. The Southern Lights dinning room was as loud as a middle school basketball game and the food was only ordinary, The Lido Deck food was far ...

Review for a Bermuda Cruise on Carnival Magic

otooleozzie
10+ Cruises • Age 70s

We chose this cruise because Bermuda was on my husband's bucket list. We had sailed this ship a couple times before. We stayed the night before at a hotel where we could leave our car. We had heard horror stories of carnival's parking. I know the ship is old but I like mid size ships. Getting around was not bad. Good lay out. buffet food not so good. Our cabin steward was great. ...

8 day out of Norfolk Va. parked car with asphalt lots ( park air) in Chesapeake. Brad was very easy to engage for info. Vans started running early and took traffic headache away. Terminal easy and friendly folks to get onboard , maybe 25 min with a 1135 boarding time. Food. Nothing special. Outback better than steakhouse the one night we went. Guys burgers good and busy. Guys bbq- expected much ...

Hurricane Lee sent us in a different direction!

Review for a Bahamas Cruise on Carnival Magic

10+ Cruises • Age 70s

Carnival changed our itinerary from Bermuda to the Bahamas due to hurricane Lee. While we were really looking forward to experiencing Bermuda again after 11 years, we fully understand that the safety of the crew, passangers and ship have to come first. Fortunately, the weather was beautiful in the Bahamas. We enjoyed our day at Half Moon Cay swimming in the clear, blue water. The revamped ...

A Bermuda Cruise that went to the Bahamas instead...

Review for a Caribbean - Eastern Cruise on Carnival Magic

Byglandsfjord
10+ Cruises • Age 60s

We didn't get to spend 3 days in Bermuda due to hurricane. Instead we went to the Bahamas. Carnival gave us $200 OBC which we used for the Chef's table. I'm fine with Safety first. The Cabin was fine; bed was comfortable, and our Steward was terrific. Internet was good; better than my experiences on HAL & Celebrity. Dining was good. Steakhouse Green Eggs & Ham & Chef's table exceeded ...
