Review summary

Although we had a great time, the liquor pkg issue was frustrating. We sat with guest services and the beverage asst director who both said we would hear back by end of day on this and all our service concerns and we never heard anything. Being in a suite was no distinction from other rooms so it was not worth the $.

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
The staff was one of the nicest crews I have encountered in the last 10 years of cruising!

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
Nice but food areas needed to be larger for 4400 guests

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5
Size was good. Balcony could have been a little wider. Ample storage.

Ship tip

It’s not as classy a cruise as others we have been on. Having a suite was no different than a regular room. And if u like to drink liquor straight up or on the rocks, don’t get the drink package! 1 Oz pours and limits are frustrating

Ports of call

Port Canaveral, Florida

4 out of 5
Easy to access

Amber Cove (Puerto Plata), Dominican Republic

3 out of 5
Would have liked to walk to a beach area

Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas

4 out of 5
We booked our own excursion which was almost ruined because carnival never told us the port times were different than the ship times

San Juan, Puerto Rico

4 out of 5

Grand Turk Island

4 out of 5
I like the fact that the beach was right off the pier and there were stray dogs to pet while there as well as good and drinks nearby the beach

Disembarkation

1 out of 5
We had priority but it was not clear when they called our tags so we got off a lot later than we needed to

I have been on 19 Carnival cruises. They always tell passengers to stay on ship’s time...always...

I had none of the issues you had (been in the Breeze twice) ....except the floor in the buffet area is extremely slick and only a matter of time before someone is seriously hurt.

I have always received a generous pour when ordering liquor on the rocks with cheers program. You can order one every 5 minutes if you like. If you drink the limit of 15 in hard liquor you are paying half price. Sounds like a good deal to me

All of our trips with Carnival they have hammered the time differences in to our heads so you dont miss the Boat. And I am failing to see how your misunderstanding is their fault. Im sorry you didnt have a good time.
