Review summary

It was so bad. My biggest issue is that online my room shows it as not a connecting room and it was. So when I am on the boat our neighbors pull out a guitar and have a full on concert at all times of the day. I have never gone a cruise where I got LESS sleep on board than I did at home. Also lots of dallasites, and lots San Antonians so do with that as you like. Lots of drunks trying to fight too.

Embarkation

We where packed like sardines, it is crazy no one got COVID.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

1 out of 5
The food really has gone down hill. The buffets and main dining room food had no flavor or quality was terrible (lots of fat, little actual meat). But of course in true carnival fashion the restaurants you paid for they where great, so sad carnival is like this now.

Onboard Activities

1 out of 5
Everything was over ran by “tejanos sin pardise” group. If you where not them they did not care. Just rude people everywhere.

Entertainment

3 out of 5
The comedy club was the best part of the whole cruise, well, and getting off.

Children's Programs

No kids

Service and Staff

2 out of 5
Room stewards, waiters are great, but guest services they are pissed you are even bothering them, so sad. Cruising with carnival used to be fun.

Ship Quality

2 out of 5
The design is fine but there was a few areas that could have been cleaned better.

Cabin / Stateroom

1 out of 5
It could have been cleaner but that was not my biggest hang up. My biggest issue is that online it shows it as not a connecting room and it was. So when I am on the boat our neighbors pull out a guitar and have a full on concert at all times of the day. I have never gone a cruise where I got LESS sleep on board than I did at home.

Ship tip

DONT GO.

Ports of call

It is what it is.

Cozumel, Mexico

There is plenty to do off boat that doesn’t require a excursion.

Progreso (Merida), Mexico

3 out of 5
You need an excursion.

Disembarkation

1 out of 5
This was miserable, they don’t do it by level anymore. It is just straight chaos.

Couldn’t be any worse than the all night crying baby we had to put up with…

Sorry you didn’t enjoy.

Since the Breeze sails from Galveston TEXAS, it’s not surprising to see people from Dallas and San Antonio on board, probably some from Austin and Houston as well.

It wouldn't matter whether your room was connecting or not the door is locked but you would still hear the music even if the room was not connecting

Did you call Security about Bon Jovi jamming next door? They will quiet down guests that are obnoxiously loud

Cruising isn’t for everyone, especially these days
