Tampa Carnival Paradise Cruise Reviews

Got a great offer,our 1st room was extremely loud from the engines,they moved us to a higher floor at center ship...They made up for it by paying our liquor bill...Very happy with there customer service.The only issue with the cabins is that there were no couches or chairs in them,and there was room for them.Guys burgers were amazing and the coffee was great.The other issue was that the pool it ...

So my family has been taking annual trips on Father’s Day for about 18 hrs now. E found this cruise with the same dates so decided to go for it! Carnival didn’t disappoint! I read reviews and surveyed anyone I could find who had cruised before. Mixed reviews but surprisingly I encountered many who had been on this cruise. The ship is beautiful but slightly dated. I was fine with that. I thought ...

My husband and I traveled with 2 other couples (all 4 first time cruisers). I'm at gold status so I was able to get a deal when booking this sailing, and did the booking for the others. I purchased "Faster to the Fun" and had an extremely quick and easy process when getting on board, maybe an hour in total. Once on board we dropped our stuff off at the room and went to the buffet for some ...

We enjoyed the cruise from Tampa to Cozumel with one exception. The music on the pool deck and performances in walkways were so loud that it was painful to be anywhere near the area. Even with earplugs! I've been on lots of cruises - including other Carnival cruises - and this is the first time the music volume has been too loud. I hope the cruise director will tone it down on this ship so people ...

This was our 3 time on Paradise. We live close to the port so it's a convenient vacation. I would say this cruise that the food was bland. Nothing to brag about. Our first evening in the main dining we had beef brisket which was delicious, but that is the only meal that really stuck with us. The ship was clean, staff friendly, entertainment was great (never had a bad experience on Carnival with ...

We did our first carnival cruise right before covid was a thing on the liberty. It was a wonderful experience. I saw the paradise reviews and decided to take a chance since its out of Tampa and we live close. It honestly wasn't horrible. I'll start was cons...going into the buffet area is just annoying. My husband couldnt get the drink package without me getting it too and i dont drink. And there ...

And that's a good thing. While Carnival is the Fun Ship, some have written that it was too much. I disagree. All in all, it was one of the better ships (of more than 10) that I have sailed and my first Carnival in over 10 years (switched from RC due to the pricing and itinerary). The 2 days at sea allowed us to enjoy the ship and we did. Ocean view cabin (M202) was more than adequate with the ...

While the actual cruise was very good, i was apalled when i arrived at terminal 3 in tampa and saw the hundreds of passengers crowded into the terminal with no distance and about 1/3 (if that, and that included the staff) wearing masks and that was for the 11:00 am arrival time. How did that time frame be for all the people that were in the terminal? While i do realize that we now do not have ...

I booked this cruise as it was going to be in Grand Cayman on my wife's birthday (we love Grand Cayman's 7 mile beach). Overall...the ship is older but very well maintained...it is also smaller than most of the other ships we have cruised on. Luckily...the weather was great and the gulf was not rough...so it was pretty much smooth sailing. Our room was what we expected...nothing fancy but ...

First cruise for me and my husband. We really enjoyed our time, our room steward I Made was wonderful! He called us by name every time he seen us and made sure we had everything. He was wonderful! Also the dining team was excellent,Lab Asa, Nujarin,Rojas, Joel and Espinoza, Rogelio Jr Paiso, we thank you for your outstanding service. We will definitely be back to cruise some more. We also had fun ...
