Review summary

I’ve been on some cruises, but this seemed the most crowded. Probably my fault due to time of year. WiFi sucks. Even their best plan. I should get a refund. Cruise team was great, but question whether I’d take another Carnival ride

Food was very good, but ship was crowded which led to long wait times.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Staff was excellent all around. Great team of friendly folks.

Ship Quality

3 out of 5

Constantly being cleaned. On complaint was the lido deck floor. Made of tile that had to be constantly wiped because of the humidity. Who’s the knucklehead that put slippery tile there?

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5

Cabin is what you’d expect on a cruise ship.

Ship tip

Don’t go at the end of July. Capacity shows 3600 passengers, but constantly heard about 5000 passengers.

I loved the Breeze! I won't cruise during the summer for two reasons: vacation time and hurricanes.

Thanks for the heads-up about the slippery lido deck. We'll be cruising on the breeze in late September. Can't help but wonder if anyone actually did fall and hurt themselves?? 🤔🤔🤔 But unless you have insurance, you're screwed- isn't that mentioned on the fine print? I'm glad you mentioned this so others can be more careful. Thanks again for review 👍🌴🏖️🍦😋⛵

Love the Breeze but do agree about the tile on the floor in Lido buffet. Not the best choice of flooring. Have to really watch your step.

I was constantly slipping on lido deck. One day I decided to go barefoot and burned the 💩 out of my feet. Next cruise I will make sure to bring better shoes

Just call the 800 number hit the back from your cruise tell them about the bad WiFi and ask for a refund we did and they refunded it no questions asked. From what I understand all cruise lines WiFi sucks

Excellent Caribbean Cruise

Wonderful

My family had a wonderful time & experience. Raul was our cabin steward & he was very accommodating. Kemchai & his team were amazing at dinner in the Sapphire dining room. Schwartz was an amazing cruise director!
