Interesting cruise by yardy215

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: Carnival Freedom

I did a solo cruise and enjoyed my sleep and relaxation. I took lots of photos and enjoyed it. I preferred the evening dining and hated the morning main dining. They had French toast and instead of doing them the traditional way, they cut 3/4 of the end of the bread and called it French toast. It was terrible. Then the second time I ate in the main dining for breakfast I ordered and omelette w onions and they cut big circles of onion and covered it w the the omelette. I did not realized I had to tell the chef to chop up my onions. Lesson well learned I went to buffet for breakfast afterwards. I enjoyed the comedy show with the woman comedian. The massage was OK I've had better. The jacuzzi was nice as long as there were no kids in it. There could of been more entertainment for adults and more so a and reggae music. After all we were in the Caribbean why not play Caribbean music. They played 80's music and 70's music the entire cruise which is repetitive and boring after a while.

Wonderfully unexpected by kkw2

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Carnival Venezia

Enjoyed my cruise, staff needs more training on customer service. Cruise director Jacky is off the wall, he made this cruise experience one of my best experience, I may book my cruises with Carnival based on the ships he is in contract with. The 2 day of cursing my husband and I got turned around and he came up to us and gave directions without us even asking for help. I did not know who he was at that point. Whatever he is being paid pay him more

Birthday cruise disapointment by captainfoster

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: Norwegian Breakaway

I was really disappointed in this cruise that I booked for my 60th Birthday with my Family. They were not impressed with NCL and this sailing did not give me any backup support to encourage them to sail with them again. I sail on NCL because of the solo travelers program and cabin offers but if I have this same experience again I will reconsider using NCL,

Pay More for a Better Cruise Line by SDaye

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Carnival Celebration

Carnival Celebration was a nice ship, but the level of customer service, clientele, and food quality did not meet my expectations. I would not recommend Carnival to anyone.

A mediocre cruise still beats a great week at the office by CruizinFromIL

Ship: Norwegian Breakaway

Overall the ship, the food, and the service was just ok. But great weather and good friends made for a nice week away.

Worst NCL cruise ever. by diatom68

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Breakaway

This cruise already wasted enough of my money and time. You know what you did wrong because we complained enough and you didn't care.

Ease of boarding in Norfolk by djohnson1703

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: Carnival Pride

It would have been nice to know that since we embarked in Norfolk, VA, rather than Baltimore, MD, that our drink package was not covered because of VA law. We felt ripped off.

Wonderful Caribbean Cruise by janicewynn72

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Carnival Celebration

I give this cruise an 8 out of 10. I know it is a family cruise but children should not be permitted in the dance clubs at night. Parents start drinking and don't supervise their children. Kids running all over the club bumping into people, not ok.

Loud, crowded, food bad, no working toilet in stateroom by SunshineWaffles

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: Norwegian Breakaway

Save your money and your sanity. Basically spring break at sea with bad food, bad service and no toilet in stateroom. Nickel and dimed. Loud, crowded. I did an NCL cruise to Bermuda in 2013 and did not have the horrible experience I had this time around (2024). Ports of call were decent and weather was great but other than that, nothing good to say.

Only for Families by vnb2486

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Icon of the Seas

We were very excited about this cruise as we always have enjoyed the big ships but they have done away with the Solariam and the Suite pool/deck section has a lot to be desired. VERY small pool that they allow kids to overcome and you can't even stick your feet in. Same with hot tubs

Everything just perfect (almost)! by alexandre717193

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Icon of the Seas

Although such a big ship might seem scary (and risky), it was a wonderful experience, and it never felt super-crowded. We had a lot of fun (besides some obnoxious out-of-control children). Food, entertainment, venues were all great.

Ship: Icon of the Seas

I very much enjoyed this cruise, however I would hope they pick a different stop than St Thomas or give us a full day here to enjoy.

Ship great. Ports unexciting. by atupek

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Celebrity Apex

We don't need to do any more Caribbean cruises. We will stick to destination cruises in the future. We have been most places around the world except for Amazon, Galapogas, Greenland, and Egypt, Jordan, and Israel. I would do another Celebrity cruise to those places if the price is comparable to Holland America.

Great family trip! I’d make a few changes by skl69562281063

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (young children)
Ship: Carnival Sunrise

Staff was great! I wish the people on the boat were more considerate and didn’t yell every night from midnight to 3 or 4 am. Also being pushed in the buffet line was something I don’t care to experience again. Islands were beautiful!

Disappointing - Not the Celebrity I used to know by akirvine

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Celebrity Apex

The ship look is pretty great, our room was very nice and loved the larger sunset veranda. The pool is way over crowded, the food was subpar and the entertainment headliner was awful. We had a good time but this was not what I have experienced with Celebrity in the past so was disappointing.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time on Adventure of the Seas. Our cruise director Dan was very enthusiastic and fun. Our waiters Rohan and Miguel were simply the best! Our excursions and ports were great! I highly recommend Adventure of the Seas!

Ship: Enchanted Princess

I highly recommend the Enchanted and her sister ships in this class. The new Sun has a lot to live up to.
