Family vacation with friends, the cruise was on 4 days , 2 days was at sea with not much todo and one of the days was at half moon cay which was just hanging at the beach all day, no shopping just on the beach! And the free water and lemonade was too far away to walk back and forth! The food could have been better on the cruise, no variety same food everyday! Orlando and Deon were great ...

The entertainment on this ship is literally amazing! The cast should be on broadway not a cruise ship! They are dedicated to making it as amazing for you as possible! They take their time and make everyone feel special! The room attendants are awesome! They work way to hard! I hope they are paid as such! Everyday my 9 year old was greeted with a different towel animal on the bed. She loved it! The ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 40s

I wanted to have one last huge vacation with my kids as my oldest heads off to college in the fall. A cruise to the Carribean sounded fun as we all like the beach, and it was an area we hadn't been, and further, my girls had never been out of the country. We booked this through a travel agent, so all those details were taken care of through someone else. I did a lot of research on the ports ...

I recently sailed on the Carnival Sensation from 07/07/18 - 07/12/18. Upon boarding the ship there was a very strong sewage smell. We initially thought it was the ship emptying their tanks, however as the cruise progressed the smell continued. At that time I chose to not let it affect my vacation, while annoying I wanted to have fun. My cousin was getting married on the ship. On day 3 my ...

This is my third cruise, the second with my family. After being on all three line, royal Caribbean, norwegian, and then carnival, I have come to enjoy cruise vacations for their service, food, activities and amentities. For the past five days, guests aboard the carnival sensation were trapped in what I would call a torture vessel due to a ruptured septic system. While i am giving this cruise a ...

We chose this cruise for the reasonable price, and we knew that the ship was a bit outdated, but that didn't deter us. We loved all of the activities that were going on,and there was always a good selection of things to do. Our favorite person on the ship was Phillip aka "Sassy"! He was working the Trivia, and I absolutely love how infectious his personality was, and he is such a sweetheart! Our ...

Great Anniversary Cruise!

Let me start by saying we picked this trip for our Anniversary based on the cost to get away for a few days as we have a trip to Europe planned next month. We flew into Miami the morning of departure, which I do not recommend. Due to weather up north, we weren't sure we would get out. We ended up getting out fine. Took a Lyft from Miami Airport to the cruise terminal. Definitely do this as ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 30s

We chose to get married on carnival sensation so our family could join us. The package seemed affordable and it advertised coordinators pre-cruise and during ceremony and reception. Turns out the pre-coordinators after only allowed to tell you what you can't do, then you get to guess as to how to plan around that. The only reason our wedding was successful was bc the on board coordinators came ...

10+ Cruises • Age 40s

I have always been a Royal Caribbean cruiser, so I thought I would give this one a try with a friend. That will NEVER AGAIN happen. The ship is old and extremely outdated. The food is absolutely not up to cruise expectations. There is a $20 fee for certain foods (ie. lobster, steaks, etc..) in the dining room. I have never heard of such a thing. The beauty of cruising is not having to deal with ...

Limited to travel in June I would love for carnival to retire the ship sensation and use a newer ship for This Bahamas destination. I don't have the opportunity to cruise on the newer ships because the cruise line uses the same ships in June to this destination. I take my parents with me and they deserve to cruise on the newer ships. Come on Carnival make that change for my parents ...
