Review summary

The cruise aboard the Breeze was fine. Our room steward Arya did a fantabulous job. The staff of both Carnival and Vacation Outlet was courteous good and helpful. For the ship to be such a large ship, I was surprised at how much the shipped rocked from side to side. But overall we had a nice cruise.

Shipped rocked a lot. It could use a better stabilizers.

Cabin / Stateroom

Aft cabins are fine. However on this ship your aft privacy is very limited. Someone from the next door cabin can look over and see into your cabin if your curtains are open. That's a thumbs down.

We were on the Breeze for an 8 day Southern Caribbean this summer and had never experienced that amount of rocking on a ship. We asked some of the staff of the ship was it always that rocky and they said the waters were much more choppy in the Southern Caribbean. We did notice it got worst the more south we traveled but did improve as we went back north. Just pack lots of Dramamine or Bonine!

Regarding the rockiness of the ship, I had read a couple of reviews where the reviewers claimed movement was felt more than other ships. I just got of the breeze a couple of weeks ago and noticed the ship moved a bit even in relatively calm waters. This was my first cruise ever and it did not impact my experience at all. It was nice to be reminded that I was on a ship and not a land resort.

We were on that cruise and were also very disappointed that the ship had been "double booked."

Obviously someone didn't do their job. It's practically impossible to have that happen. So sad that we couldn't enjoy this island in the daytime.

The rocking on the Christmas sailing was fairly bad. One show was cancelled because of it. It got better as the cruise went on.

Setting sail on the Breeze in just over three weeks. Was your cruise just extra choppy? I haven't heard anyone else mention the rocking.
