My cruise on the Carnival Glory was my third cruise with Carnival in the past 12 months. I travel with my brother and sister and we each have our separate cabins. Carnival offers the best pricing for people traveling together, but wanting separate cabins.
The Carnival Glory was by far the best cruise ship that I have been on. I have cruised with Royal Caribbean and Norwegian. First, embarkation was an absolute ease. Had I completed my Immigration Form for the Bahamas and had entered my credit card information when I completed my Funpass on line, it would have taken about 12 mins instead of the 20 mins that it did! (That was a joke!) Once on board, my brother, sister and I were in awe of the beauty of the ship. Our rooms were ready for us when we arrived, which was about 1:30 pm. Our luggage was at our cabin before our 6:15 dinner seating.
The activities on the ship were plentiful. There was always something going that would interest just about anyone with a pulse! The different themed rooms of the Carnival Glory were beautifully designed. The entertainment on the Carnival Glory exceeded my expectations as well. At the Casino Bar, there was always someone there playing great, upbeat, Caribbean or other themed music. The Ivory Club (the jazz bar) was beautiful and had and OUTSTANDING quartet. The Cinna-Bar (the piano bar) had a great musician who knew how to have a great time with all the cruisers that crowded that bar every night. The Blue Bar/Club also had an incredibly great band. If you love live music, you will be able to get your fill on this ship. White Heat (the dance bar) had 2 awesome djs that kept the floor jumping all night long! If you like karaoke, the Ebony Cabaret room had a great crowd every night as well. However, the Amber Palace was by far the most impressive. Great choreography and singing by the cast. The shows were immensely entertaining and far better than any shows I have seen on any cruise ship.
