First time cruisers, and likely never again.

Review for a Caribbean - Western Cruise on Carnival Valor

Carnival Review Our first cruise and I said to my wife, trying to explain the level of failure and the level of care regarding the buffet quality is basically saying if Walmart had a buffet, this would have been it, and Luby’s would probably still have given them a run and still lost. The food was absolutely the most disgusting thing I have ever seen attempted to be put as meals, and that’s ...

This was my first cruise, and after this experience will also be my last. We sailed Norwegian Breakaway out of New Orleans on march 10th. This cruise was obviously overbooked, and understaffed. If you wanted to get your child into splash academy, you would have to be in line at the very least an hour early. We waited in line for an hour to see Burn The Floor. We waited in line for at ...

Worst Cruise Experience EVER

We chose this cruise because of the destinations, and had heard good things about Norwegian. I’m a very positive person and always focus on the positives and try to diminish anything negative, however - there was NOTHING good about this cruise ship and their staff. Nothing. First, they allow smoking in so many places on the ship, including the casino on the 7th floor - which pretty much made ...

The cruise went to some great places and we did excursions , unusually for us , and on the whole they were good. NCL are noisy ships and we always get a spa pass as that is the only place inside you can sit to have a view out of the front of the boat. Entertainment is varied and some is good some less so, food is generally good. Seated drinks service is always patchy, do they have a lot of people ...

Dirty, Boring, Poor Service, Bad Food

This was my first and last experience with Carnival. The first thing I noticed boarding the ship was how the staff did not interact well with the cruisers. The staff was kind and polite, but did not initiate any type of quality customer service. The ship is older and shows all the signs of wear and tear that are expected with an older ship. However, dirty is different than wear and tear. The ...

We sailed out of Nee Orleans with a 1 year old and 3 year old. The Oceaneers kids club and the nursery were under construction. My kids could not experience these areas. They did not have an open house for the kids clubs that my toddlers could go to. The food was not that great except for the breakfast and lunch buffets. We had to come back a day early due to bad weather. We were not compensated ...

I talked some family and friends into going on a cruise this year, in lieu of renting a beach house to get a break from the winter weather. I have been on 4 prior cruises on Royal Caribbean, Holland America as well Carnival and always had great experiences. Our group wanted to go to Belize in particular so when I discovered that Norwegian’s Breakaway had a stop in Belize, I looked into trying ...

Where do I begin. From day 1, the cruise has been a nightmare. From the entire ship smelling like feces because they were having internal plumbing problems. Everything kept breaking down around ship. The hot tubs was cold and packed with kids. The pool was filled with kids with boogers and spit floating everywhere. The food was disgusting in every restuarant but what you had to pay for. They lost ...

Ncl assigned me cabin (9104) supposedly ocean view, but actually a totally obstructed view. i could not change cabins. customer service essentially told me, "tough. you aren't the first passenger to complain about this cabin." cabin steward didn't deliver my latitudes stuff timely. i had to chase him down. long lines everywhere on the ship. impossible to get reservations to shows because we ...

We all know a certain level of subpar experience is expected with Carnival like food and stateroom accommodations but this sailing was by far the worst in all of my experiences. I have had a lingering feeling for some time Carnival was cutting back on staff and services, starting with turn down at night and food quality (not that it was ever suburb) but that feeling is now glaringly obvious. Post ...
