Review summary

Horrible. Many Passengers are this ship had no consideration for others. Let their children run wild up and down the hallways disturbing others. Ship smells of urine and vomit. Many drunk people. Pool is crammed with passengers.

Take taxi $8 pp go to free beach at the Krazy Lobster restaurant order food or drinks and use beach for free. DO NOT PAY $20 to get chairs and umbrella that’s a rip off

I guess u get what you pay for. I've done 30 cruises. Only one of which was with Carnival, and that will be the only one. My experience was exactly what the name implies .. everyone was only interested in partying with no consideration for anyone else. Ship decor was cheesy and everything was minimalistic. For me, I'd rather spend just a tad more and have a classy experience! As the saying goes..."Horses for courses", and that expression couldn't be truer in the cruising industry. Having said that, for me, any cruise is a good cruise, and I still had a good time and im glad I tried.

All your cruises (18) have been on other cruise lines but Carnival, maybe stick with who got you here….then you won’t be disappointed …

You should have swapped cabins with that guy who said it was freezing the whole cruise.

The Breeze is an amazing ship with some planning. The thalosotherapy pool and spa area...no kids..is amazing..the specialty restaurants are a great value (other than the steakhouse)... serenity deck. Bye Felicia...

So sad to read the negative reviews for Carnival Breeze. She has been my favorite ship so far with a very special place in my heart. Maybe the carnival needs to take her back to her pre pandemic itinerary and leave Galviston behind.
