Port Canaveral (Orlando) to the Western Caribbean Cruise Reviews

This was my 23rd cruise, with Carnival being a third of those. I haven't cruised with Carnival in about 5 years and the concept of cruising that Mardi Gras presents is a welcome change (mostly). Embarkation went fairly smooth in Carnival's newest terminal at Port Canaveral. Usual wait times, about an hour overall from dropping bags to stepping on board. Not bad for these days of Covid. Tip: ...

First let me say that this review is basically about the cleanliness of eating areas. I just went on Celebrity in November and I’m comparing it to that which I thought was excellent. Celebrity had staff waiting with hand sanitizer in all eating locations. No guest were allowed to touch anything to keep things sterile. I will also say that in my November sailing they were at 50% capacity. I found ...

I think we were just so happy to be back to cruising but, honestly, it was not the quality we expected for either the food or entertainment options. The food at the Main Dining Room was not great and our 2nd visit to Wonderland was also lackluster. Service was steller but not enough activities to keep us entertained. Drinks were different depending on the bar. Lines for My Time even with a ...

My husband and I just returned from a Caribbean cruise. While there were positive things about this ship and crew there are also a number of negatives. The entertainment was very good. The rooms are very nicely laid out with two separate closets. As far as the ship goes the lack of an adult-only pool is disappointing. I also feel that RC is not ready for full capacity sailing yet. In seven ...

My husband and I selected this cruise because of the port and itinerary. We have sailed on other cruise lines but not MSC. The reviews here as you know are very mixed so we went into the trip with an open mind and not very high expectations other than to get away. When we got to port there wasn't another car in sight. Later we found out the ship only had just shy of 600 passengers for this ...

We chose this cruise for a several reasons . The cruise line ,the itinerary, the port of embarkation, and amenities offered. We are new to MSC cruise line and wanted to try something different ,and also the loyalty points match was also very nice as we had some points with another cruise line.As far as the itinerary we have been to Costa Maya and Cozumel on prior cruises but our main ...

Ship itself is rather stunning! Cabin was good, but smaller than we had on Carnival. A few stains on couch that apperead removable, but were not cleaned. Shower had a leak at the connection to the controls, and tv remote was broken. Replacement remote was broken as well. Food wa good, but not exceptional. Several dishes were somewhat overcooked. Ship sailed well, minimal ocean sway. ...

The MDR no linens I felt like dress up I was dressed to go to Dennys. No night stand a pice of plastic attached to the wall. New ship I expected outlet by the bed for a cpap , nope extension. Garage rags for napkins in buffet & several dinning areas. Condiment buffet men with hairy chest no shirt reaching over the table gross. Put on a shirt. Ladies cheeks of their asses hanging out in dinning ...

I chose this cruise because it fit perfectly within my spring break. We’ve never done only a four day cruise so that was new to us. Four days including embankment day. Three ports, no sea days. Grand Bahamas/Freeport, Coco Cay, Nassau. Super reasonably priced. Definitely got more than my money’s worth. They added grand Bahamas the day before sailing, so the ship had activities as if it were a sea ...

I was on the Mariner for a spring break cruise 4-19-2022. It was our first cruise since 2019 having cruised 14 times previously on NCL, Carnival and Royal Caribbean. This was our second cruise from Port Canaveral. We drove to the port and parked there which was extremely easy and cost $85 for the 4 days. I will say one of the benefits of what we learned in COVID is the embarkation process. It was ...
