Caribbean - Bahamas Cruise Reviews

We will not cruise on Carnival. We are going back to Royal Caribbean.

This was a horrible experience for our family. We will not cruise with Carnival again.

It BLOWS MY MIND that there were NO BATHING SUITS available in the shops. The sales lady said they were sold on clearance on the last cruise. Clearly that information didn't help me. Bathing suits should be a staple. Delta screwed up my luggage and it never made it to the ship. Fortunately I packed a bathing suit in my hand luggage otherwise I would have not had anything for the pool, snorkeling (which got canceled) or day at Coco Cay. Purchase options for other items in shop was super limited. Took a ton of options to my room to try on and kept 1 pair of white linen pants ($128) and 1 cover up ($10) and a pair of flip flops ($34--ridiculous but I had no options). YOU NEED BETTER TOOTHBRUSHES IN THE TOILETRY CASE. The one thing I wanted to do was brush my teeth and the toiletry case was very appreciated but the toothbrushes were HORRENDOUS. This is where it was evident that Celebrity wanted the cheapest priced toothbrushes and you certainly achieved that goal. When people need a toiletry case it's because they had some kind of issue and are already in a sad mood. This is not the place to skimp. With the whole airline/Crowdstrike issue, the ship should have been more prepared for those without luggage. Truly a missed opportunity.

Wonderful experience. Clean ship. Good entertainment. Lots of activities to choose from. Tasty food selections. Friendly staff. Great service!!!

We had a great time. Was my husbands first cruise and he was impressed

I hadn't heard much about the MSC cruise line so I had some reservations. I was very happy with this trip.

Great trip, went for my mother's birthday and had such a good time!

Dear Carnival Cruise Team, I wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude for the outstanding experience I had on my recent Carnival Cruise. From start to finish, every aspect of the journey exceeded my expectations and made for an unforgettable vacation. Ship and Facilities: The ship was immaculate and beautifully maintained. The stateroom was both spacious and comfortable, and the public areas were consistently clean and inviting. The variety of facilities, including the pool, spa, and fitness center, provided ample options for relaxation and recreation. Dining: The dining experiences were nothing short of exceptional. The variety of restaurants and the quality of the food were impressive. Each meal was a delight, with delicious options and excellent service. The staff’s attentiveness and the variety of choices made each dining experience enjoyable. Entertainment and Activities: The range of entertainment options was fantastic. The shows were vibrant and engaging, and the onboard activities offered something for everyone. Whether it was a lively game show or a relaxing movie night, there was never a dull moment.

Overall, my Carnival Cruise was a remarkable experience, and I am already looking forward to my next adventure with Carnival. Thank you for providing such a memorable and enjoyable vacation. I will certainly be recommending Carnival to friends and family! Warm regards, Anand

This was a very different experience than my first cruise. The cabins were hot and humid. I felt miserable inside. The pillows are old and flat. I did not sleep well. I thought the food was good. The staff were okay.

Royal has stepped up their game! From energetic music, improved meals and staff was outstanding!

I thought the cruise was excellent. The process of getting on board was easy. Our room was spacious. The entertainment on board was top notched. The food at the buffet was okay. The restaurants are wonderful. The staff make you feel special. Highly recommend.

Overall, I wasn't sure what to expect since this was our first cruise but it was great. We had 8 kids in our group and it was easy to let them roam around on their own without worrying about them. Food was always available and there was always something to do for every age group.

This was a very last minute cruise. Activities are lacking in comparison to all other cruises I've been on; however, being so short and not much time spent onboard, it was "ok". Food was just average at best, except the pizza-it was AMAZING. Ship is very clean, but seems outdated. All in all, it was a very nice, short trip.

1st time sailing with RC and we will only be sailing with them from now on!

we had a great time, loved the food and the staff throughout the cruise

I’ll stay with Celebrity cruise line. However met some really nice people which made this trip better than it was. Again staff excellent.

Ship is good clean but staff are not friendly, you have to pay for everything on ship ( drinks , intertainment, restaurants..)

Butlers were great in the cabin area. Concierge service in the Yacht Club was not impressive. They do not, and will not, multi-task. There’s usually only one there and they only do one thing at a time. Most folks just walk away after a long wait as we did.

We (family and friends totaling 26) absolutely LOVED everything about our experience aboard the MSC Meraviglia. The ship is huge, and we hardly ever felt it moving, yet we quickly familiarized ourselves with all its details. The variety of food options was immense and fabulous. From casual dining to fine dining, there was something for everyone. The entertainment was top-notch, featuring classical performances by highly ranked artists. It was truly memorable. However, we were disappointed with the photo booth experience. The process to get the photos at the end of the cruise was quite stressful, involving too much negotiation and hassle to obtain our own copies. This process could definitely be more friendly and streamlined. Overall, we had an incredible family vacation and didn't want it to end. We're already looking forward to sailing again soon!

Best deal for this price! The food is tasty, but I will suggest to add more eastern Asian food, like Chinese food, Japanese food or Korean food. I can see Indian food almost every day.
