Never again ! by pamelamaresh

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: Carnival Inspiration / Destination: Mexico

Never again ! Carnival is very carnivalesque. If this is your first cruise it might be ok and if you have a bunch of kids or are under 22 and want to party hard this might be for you. Do not expect anything luxurious - this is very budget and kid oriented. We called it a floating Las Vegas Motel 6. Customer service is not their goal. We brought on board 2 bottles of expensive wine to share at dinner, but because we missed one small section of the fine print they confiscated it and threw it away. Only because we had them in the incorrect bag - there was no reason to toss $100 worth of wine when they could have had us pick it up after the cruise like any wine people purchased in town, just unnecessary and rude ! We had packed them in our luggage to fly and intended to carry on our own luggage but a porter at the dock insisted he take it on board. We didn't even think that we weren't technically carrying it on at this point and that Carnival would take it and throw it away - what a waste for a technicality ! We had an idea that this cruise would be what it was however it was much worse - one vacation we were glad to be over !

Great Family Getaway by DavidIdaho

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Carnival Inspiration / Destination: Mexico

We took our six children ranging in age from 10 to 23. They all had fun doing their own thing. We found that the buffet dining was enough for the younger kids as they were happy with the selections and not having to wait for formal dining. We found it easier and cheaper to do shore excursions on our own. It took more research beforehand but we were ready and had a lot of fun. Would do it again for sure.

Spectacular ship, amazing crew, endless food. by daring

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Star / Destination: Mexico

This ship is GINORMOUS! There was so much room to move around! And then, we could go to the sanctuary of our cabin (and balcony). Really looking forward to the next one.

The ports were fun. The cruise ship was disappointing in a few ways. We were a group of 12 that they made us split up instead of being together for the evening dining. The ship itself was worn,stained and not always clean. The food was mediocre. by blbillquist

Sail date: / Traveled as: Large Group
Ship: Carnival Splendor / Destination: Mexico

Ship was worn and not well maintained. Food ok. Our personal evening dining experience was frustrating because we weren’t all seated together. The staff were wonderful— a redeeming part of the cruise.

Lovely Mexican Riviera cruise for Spring Break by krisg323

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Norwegian Star / Destination: Mexico

We had a great time. The ship wasn't too impressive, given some of the newer, fancier ships out there today, but for our family of 4, with 2 teenagers, we didn't need the 'extras'. Entertainment was really good (better than I've seen on any of our other cruises). Food was outstanding. If you can get the Unlimited Drink Package as a promo..DO IT! Good stuff like Grey Goose...all day long. :)

It was excellent. Only problem was the casino. You have to transfer winnings to your room key. If your not careful you think your playing with the money you won but actually your charging your credit card when you add money. Too confusing. We spent 300 $ by tiltjmaxx

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Carnival Inspiration / Destination: Mexico

Again I may have missed it. But please do a tutorial on using the casino and how to use the key card for gambling. We I come back I will have learned how. But people like me will accidentally use the credit card portion of the machine instead of using what you won. That need to change.

fun by morenakreyling

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Carnival Inspiration / Destination: Mexico

It was a nice gesture to give my husband a gift card for his birthday to use at the Spa. I think he would have been able to use it, if it had been in the form of OBC instead.

We had an excellent vacation with Carnival. Waiting 25 years was too long to take our 2nd trip. Looking forward to our next cruise on Carnival!

Good cruise boaring entertainers. No people of color in your shows on this ship.... by mssheila42

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: Carnival Splendor / Destination: Mexico

Good cruise boaring entertainers .You have no people of color in your line up. Just the 4 mediocre caucasian guys and 4 mediocre caucasian girls. Surely you can find some people of color..

Alright! by Bun123

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)

Not the best experience, buffet room no organization people have to move in their chairs to allow you to get to your table. Not very friendly
