Enjoyable Cruise to Warm Climate by jphdlh

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

Our cruise was excellent. Just note during spring break time there will be lots of families with their younger kids and teens. That was my fault for booking during that time. My biggest issue was some parents letting their children run around doing cartwheels, tumbling and overall not being supervised. The crew is not there to babysit unless you bring children to day care. Besides the above, the cruise was excellent. We wanted to get away to warmer climate and it was certainly warm. Over favorite port, Harvest Caye is amazing. Lounging in the pool and enjoying cold adult beverages while soaking up the sun. Doesn’t get any better. Beware though, you must have cash or credit card when purchasing food, drinks, or gifts on Harvest Caye. Yes, the information was given to guests prior to going ashore. We have two more cruises scheduled on Norwegian and can not wait to see other parts of the Caribbean area

Fantastic Welcome back to Cruising after over 10 years off! by jcsnow85

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Mardi Gras

All in all it was a great experience. The food was better than expected even though it was not always great. I felt the bars needed more staff as they got backed up a ton. The coffee shop was always a crazy line but when we found the bar on the 8th floor with the Espresso machine the last couple of days were much better. Security did what they could but the teens destroyed equipment in the arcade and it made that experience tough for younger kids. In addition security did not do a good job of policing the Basketball courts. I understand that teenagers will cuss but it was so graphic and inappropriate that most kids would not go in there because it was so aggressive in there. I feel security should not allow kids to yell out racial slurs and extreme language when there are a ton of little kids around. My kids learned way to many new words and racial slurs.

Worst one yet..... by OgdenCruiser

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

After 10 plus cruises, this was the worst one! This was during spring break so lots of kids which usually isn't an issue for us (we always cruise during spring break with our teenage kids. The kids on this cruise were disrespectful as well as many of the adults. The food lines were the longest we have ever seen. The food staff were unfriendly and often looking at their phones. We were told 20 minutes before we were supposed to dock at Progreso that we wouldn't be able to due to unsafe conditions so we had an extra day at sea which usually isn't an issue for us but with the long lines and little entertainment we were very disappointed.

Good itinerary, good ship by NightNet

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (young children)
Ship: Norwegian Prima

This was our first time traveling on NCL. Our room was great! But be careful about booking forward balcony rooms. You may be overlooking the bow of the ship if you're on a lower floor and that would really suck. We were in room 12102, so high enough that our view wasn't obstructed but the deck was TINY.

Okay by sgl1960

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

Enjoyed this ship's entertainment. The parties were the best part of the cruise. No one should have to endure smelling sewage during the entirety of a paid vacation.

Overall great experience.........only to issues to report by mbdg1234

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

We love Carnival and will always use you for our cruises. The issues described above will not deter us. We will probably think twice about sailing on Breeze solely because of onboard texting experience but count on us for future cruises.

Honeymoon/1st Anniversary by jeanniels

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

Had a nice time overall. Picked the wrong cruise for us; wrong time of year for a nice anniversary cruise for a mature couple. Learned what to do/not to do for next cruise.

The Awesome and The Ugly by bethlem31

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

The cruise, the staff on the boat and check in, the food and the ports were all over the top exceptional. The parking garage needs better staff and better service. We were told by one person to do one thing and shouted at by another that we were doing it wrong.

Nice Caribbean trip by charpo2006

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

Loved the cruise, the week went by too quickly! One caveat, we were disappointed that the galley (kitchen facilities) and bridge tours were no longer offered, as Platinum-Level guests we always enjoyed seeing those areas.

Disappointed by kpascarelli

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

This was my 3rd time cruising and it was my worst experience. Food was disappointing. I asked for someone to call me regarding my concerns and never received a call. My daughter had a peanut allergic reaction and was told that we would have to take her to the medical office at the front of the ship and we were at the back of the ship. She couldn't breath and there was no sense of urgency. I felt like cattle and just another number.
