This was our fourth carnival cruise. Our second cruise on the miracle. we loved the miracle and the staff and the food and everything so so much the first time around we decided to do a second trip on the miracle about a year later. Embarkation went smoothly. Our cabin was nice. The bed was comfortable. The water was hot. Our room steward was fantastic as always. The food was good. The ...

We were a group of 17, part of a larger group who had been traveling in Australia and New Zealand. Several wanted to visit the Great Barrier Reef, and this cruise seemed to be an easy and fun way to do it. While we are not exactly "quiet and shy" people by any means, everyone in our group was annoyed by how loud everything on this ship was. The decor was loud, the other passengers were loud, the ...

Great crew, not my favorite ship

My mother and I chose this cruise because it sailed from New Orleans, and we wanted to see NOLA as well as take a cruise. We had previously sailed on the Norwegian Spirit on an Alaskan itinerary and loved it, so I didn't hesitate to book another Norwegian cruise. This ship is not the Norwegian Spirit, but there were aspects that I enjoyed: 1) The crew-- they were helpful and kind. They did ...

So, my new wife and I wanted to celebrate our 1st year wedding anniversary. We are in older years my wife 64, and me 72. we booked our trip 7 months in advance, of our anniversary. As we live in NW Florida, New Orleans was our departure point. We travelled the day before to be within a 20-mile radius of our day of our departure. Little did we know that our trip was in Spring Break. boarding was ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 40s

This was our first ever cruise. We have traveled many times to resorts in Mexico, Cuba, DR and can only compare those experiences to the cruise. Chose to do a cruise for a new experience and to see countries we have not traveled to. We were a family of 3 - 2 adults and 1 teenager. I watched countless cruise review videos ahead of our trip and felt I was very well prepared. I am now ...

Just wanted to know if anybody else on this sailing got covid when they returned home? I got it a few days after leaving ship. Otherwise had a nice cruise. Would prefer no days "at sea" . Ship was older, but revamped a few years back. Still looked old with dark interiors. A lot of illnesses could circulate inside a closed air conditioned ship, not just covid. Went on a 7 day Princess cruise ...

We had never cruised with NCL before and heard lots of great things about this cruise line from friends. This however was not the cruise to have people rave about NCL. We will start with the end first. The ship was delayed getting back into port by 5 hours. The disembarkation was a complete mess, with lines and almost no staff to be seen. People were not following assigned times which created ...

The food on Royal Caribbean has declined from my past experiences. The staff was great at the dining room but the quality of the food was terrible. I didn’t eat my food most nights and resorted to the pizza later on. It was better than most of the food in the dining room and the buffet was even worse. Usually we only go to the dining room bc it’s been great in the past. Besides the quality of the ...

Review for a Caribbean - Southern Cruise on Eurodam

This was our fourth HAL cruise, and we were very disappointed. Holland America has been wonderful in past years, and we have extolled it's virtues, but this Eurodam cruise seemed understaffed, and the service was lackadaisical at best. We booked a Signature Suite but found that it was just a larger verandah stateroom with absolutely no "suite" amenities. Upon initial boarding, there was no ...
