First and last Carnival cruise

Review for a Caribbean - Western Cruise on Carnival Dream

I chose this cruise because my wife and I had never been on Carnival but had been on several other cruise lines and we wanted to try the Carnival Dream. I look at the ratings up above and have to laugh. This was by far the worst experience on a vacation we had ever been on and it will be the last with Carnival. First off let me say that the highlight of our trip was knowing our room would be clean ...

Dirty, poorly run ship

I've been on Norwegian before and thought the re positioning cruise out of New Orleans looked good. Price was right, but I was wrong. Not only was the ship dirty and poorly run, but the bathroom stalls in neither the men's nor women's stalls would always unlock from the inside. Quite a few, including myself got locked in. Got a notice about 1/2 through that "Technical Work" was going to be ...

From the beginning, this ship and crew were below par. Many issues with uncaring or even rude staff, not having rooms cleaned, doors off their hinges in the bathroom, toenail clippings on the bathroom floor, mediocre food at best, prebooking excurions where tickets did not show up (causing us to wait in long lines TWICE to get the tickets), constantly being 'nickel and dimed' to death. ...

This was my second time on this ship, my husband's first. The Dream is very clean and there are many free food options. Guy's burgers located by the main pool has the best burgers of any ship or cruise line. Guy's was just added to this ship in February. Embarkation and debarkation went smoothly. The Port traffic in New Orleans is terrible on sailing day, so plan ahead for traffic delays. We would ...

Food was the same in the dining, they changed it once or twice in the 7 days

The food on the lunch buffet was very limited mostly pasta and chicken & pan fried fish. The fried chicken was awful...... Past cruses were great i have been on over 30 cruses ., this was one of the worst (food wise) and experimenter all they want you to do is go into the casino and buy the ever priced drinks and stay drunk! the entertainment was a joke. The past cruses they had live shows ...

Ya- not so good. Bed was very hard, very uncomfortable. Music way too loud around the pool. Very smoky . Way too many smokers onboard. And no control of where they smoked. I found the drinks to be very watery. And too many sur-charges on the UBP. Food was average at best. Not taste. No variety. And the presentation was lacking. I found the staff to be very friendly. Very helpful. In fact, if it ...

Worst Vacation Ever

First Time Cruiser • Age 40s

This cruise should come with a skull and cross bones warning! Being on this cruise made my wife and I feel like we were trapped on the high seas with everyone over 65. Only about 2% of the population on the cruise was below the age of 50. Needless to say the most exciting activity on the boat was BINGO which they charged an arm and a leg to play. After playing Bingo you were left to sit around and ...

I've been on several Carnival Ships and this time we decided to go with Norwegian We EXPECTED a much better experience. We heard Norwegian is a step up in Quality.... DISAPPOINTING is the word to describe our vacation. The ship was old and had nothing to do except eat. The on-board entertainment sucked, the activities sucked, and the food was just so-so. More on the food, they have two ...

I have been on over 30 cruises. I have been on NCL at least 5 times. I was shocked by all the charges. The beverage package is not free like they say. You will pay over $100.00 in service fees for a 7 day cruise. If you receive free dining you will pay additional gratuities for that. Make sure that when you go to the specialty restaurants you know this. You will receive a bill so that you can add ...
