Carnival Breeze Cruise Reviews - Reviews

Every part of this cruise was awesome!!! Being a first time cruiser, I was completely blown away by all the fun activities and fun that the Cruise Director Mike and his Assistant Cruise Director Mikey planned and kept us busy, even during the rainy days and nights we had! Great Job Carnival!

This was by far my worst cruise.  We have taken about 30 cruises on different lines so we do have experience.  The service in the dining room was poor, the food was not good and the entertainment was marginal.  The casino was awful, you could not win a penny unless you are playing $6 to $8 a hand.  There was very little to do on your sea days and not live music playing by the pool.   I would not recommend this cruise to anyone.

This was our first cruise and we absolutely loved it!` From the moment we got on we enjoyed ourselves.  The staff was remarkable.  We fell in love with our Bartender, Olena at the Tides Bar on the Lido deck.  She took very good care of us.  We will be cruising again for sure and I've already recommended it to friends.

the boarding process was slightly cumbersome. There evidently were passengers that did not adhere to their check-in times. I know that Carnival has little control over what individual passengers do, but I would suggest 2 separate lines. One line for those checking in during the correct time frame and another line for those who don't. Overall the cruise was very enjoyable.

The ship wasn't the best I've ever been on but the people were friendly.  We had one issue with a lady sitting on the smoking side of the casino. She was upset that my husband's smoke was going in her face. She caused a huge scene.  Long story short, she was never asked to leave after threatening and cursing.  We decided to leave because we didn't want to keep the drama rolling. My husband had been playing that machine off and on for a few days and was finally doing ok... he could have missed out on the jackpot.  My only guess is she spent a lot of money in the casino. I guess it didn't matter that we were there with a group of 15 and paid for two rooms, one being a balcony. My parents had a suite. All together our group had 6 rooms.

 The dining room was the best... all the employees were amazing, 

The excursions were awesome. Honduras I recommend Little French Key. Belize I recommend Goffs Caye.  Both we bought off the ship. This is my 6th cruise and they are by far the most beautiful I have ever seen. We are planning a air trip to Honduras to stay at the little french key next March. 

After the whole casino incident we will be taking another cruise but not with carnival.  We didn't feel protected from the ladies harsh behavior. It really came down to who spent more at the casino.  If that was my husband who initiated that scene, I have no doubt we would have been asked to leave. It really hurt my feelings. .. oh and the room service select is minimal.  No more pizza.

The Breeze is one of Carnival's best ships. Beautiful decor, great food, attentive staff, tons of entertainment. They have a plethora of quality live musicians scattered around the ship to make each room "pop." (That said, the main shows were sub par.)

We enjoyed the ports very much. This was the first time traveling to the Western Caribbean for both me and my friend that I traveled with.

In Cozumel we did the Whale Sharks Excursion, purchased through Carnival. That was the one and only let down of the trip. Terribly organized by the tour operator. 7+ hours of travel time for 2 minutes in the water with a Whale Shark. Not enough time to really appreciate it. Excursion tour guide was not personable or pleasant. They offered horrible food on the way back to the ship.

In Belize it was the opposite. On the Lamanai Mayan Ruins & River Boat Safari excursion we had the time of our lives. The tour guide, Elvis, was informative and funny. He never let a moment go by without everyone learning something and having fun. The ruins were incredible. Excellent food and service was provided.

In Roatan I spent the day at Paya Bay, a private resort. It was very enjoyable. Very peaceful place, filled with beautiful plants and wildlife, and a couple of great beaches. Food was included. You could hike, explore, swim, eat, drink, kayak, and snorkel!

Overall an excellent cruise!

I loved the different nationalities on the cruise, my favorite was the three ladies that played the violins. Plenty of things to do when at sea. Plenty of food. Everyone was happy and seemed to want to make your stay very memorable. I would definitely sail on the breeze again. 

We had a really great time.  The Breeze is a beautiful ship with tons of activities.  We took our 7 and 9 year old kiddos.  They didn't love the camp carnival and opted to stay with us the whole time.  Which was ok by us.  Both kids loved the evening dinning experience.  Sherwin and his team were amazing.  It was pretty frequent that I had to ask their opinion and make slight changes to the menu to accommodate a picky kid.  The Indian meal was by far the best meal, ever.  The water slides were fun and the sky walk was a little much for me but the kids loved it.  The shows we attended were kid friendly.  Magic show and a few music theater style shows, family game show, and towel making class.  Our cabin was way better than I had anticipated.  We had a king bed and bunks for the kids.  There was plenty of room and the balcony view was enjoyed every morning.  The staff is incredible.  Jenny was awesome and our room was always tidy and the kids were always eager to see what animal would be waiting for them.  Plenty of food options during the days.  So much so that I never got hungry enough to try the sushi place.  The pools were nice but really really warm, like almost hot tub style.  We booked a few excursions.  In Belize we booked snorkeling.  This wasn't the best experience.  It was a pretty lengthy charter to get there.  The guide was impatient, with a large first time group.  This was the only option for a 7 year old.  The water was beautiful.  But not worth the 300.00 we paid to snorkel.  My kids were terrified of the coral because of the briefing.  "it's alive, don't touch anything, it's poisonous."  So they went out pretty scared and the group moved so fast.  My daughter lost her flipper and my son had a melt down when someone touched him because he thought we was poisoned.  We ended up calling the rescue guy who took them back.  It was disappointing.  But they did snorkel in the really shallow part.  There was nothing else to do and they were ready to get back to the ship.  In Honduras we did the unlimited magic chair lift and shell seats.  That was well worth it.  Easily our fav port.  Gorgeous and super fun with the floating mats provided with the chairs and the lift was really fun.  Cozumel was a fun day as well.  It's a busy busy busy week but such a great experience for us.  We came home exhausted and missing the food!!!  Our kids have already asked to cruise again next year.

We enjoyed everything, casino, food, C02 club,bingo, entertainment, swimming and the people who took care of us. Very nice, ready to answer any questions, always smiling.

This was a great cruise. The staff with and Carnival were great to work with. On-board the ship, the staff was nothing short of professional and positive. The itinerary was great and everything was always on-time.

The cruise director Mike was full of energy. We had a large group that included kids. It was "way cool" for them. There were a ton of activities to keep us all busy.

Carnival is always the best.. too many favorites to name. Our cabin was immaculate and the ocean view window great for picture taking. Superb food. Most friendly staff and crew. The entertainment on this cruise was not up to Carnival standard.

The service and workers on Carnival are great.  Happy, smiley, fun people.  Our ocean view stateroom was great.  Loved the bathroom.  Kids had fun at the night clubs.  We all thought the food was okay, but not enough variety and the different buffets-counters closed too soon and were not open enough.  Late night dining was very limited.  Thought Belize port of call was awful.  We wandered out of shopping district and within a few minutes were a little scared and uncomfortable so we returned to ship.  

It was a very good experience for my family and me. The food was good, the personnel attending us ( crew members) were nice, professional and very caring people. The food at the formal dinning restaurant were not any different from the buffet food. that was a little unexpected, I believed there is room for improve there only the formality of the dinning area was different and off course the attention of the waitress was excellent.

besides that I will recommend the cruise widely.

Been on several other cruises and this was the first on a more family focused ship. Lots of kids running around. Most were well behaved. There were always activities. My other cruises had much more down time with activities mostly in the evenings so this was a nice change. Thought the food was pretty good considering they are feeding around 4,000 people. Did the chef's table and it was amazing!  Superb food. Be ready to eat a lot!

the sushi was great but the open hours were so limited it was hard to get any. 

Crew were great. Very friendly and did their best to make people happy. Always amazed that they can learn names so fast. 

The thrill theater was very fun. Didn't know what to expect and we all screamed at times. 

The movies out on deck were great. Lots of variety and good choices. 

The staff was great and food was wonderful.

Th show was fun and the kids had something to look forward to everyday.

Our wait staff at the Blush Dining Room was absolutely excellent. Leo, Jitendra Singh, and Ardani were very attentive to detail. They even remembered the likes and dislikes of my grandchildren. They were very patient and sweet with my sometimes rowdy 1.5 year old granddaughter and my 3 year old grandson. They were always smiling and helpful. Our departure day, we were sitting at the Lido Deck eating breakfast and drinking coffee. Jitendra saw us from across the room. He made it a point to stop by our table, call us by name and chat for awhile.  In addition; I am grateful for the activities for children and the fact you also had some pg movies available at the Dive In. Pg and G movies were also available In the thrill theater. The atmosphere of this cruise was very peaceful and organized. Our room staff were also courteous and kind. They quietly did their job without any disturbances. My family particularly lived "tea time!." Excellent. Only one female staff member was impatient and unfriendly. Everyone else were terrific. The atmosphere of the violinists were beautiful! Thanks carnival Breeze staff!!!!!!! Great job!!!!!!! Embankment and debarkment were smooth as silk! 

Favorite part of the cruise was it was relaxing.  We went on some excursions.  The first excursion was not so good.  What it said in your description did not match up to the excursion itself.  There was no air conditioning on the bus that took us to Montego Bay for a raft ride down the river.  Disappointed in this excursion.

1. The staff was wonderful! Fransiska and Omari in the dining room and Wijana our room steward were phenomenal!

2. Great food as always. Awesome spa and water slide. Amazing theater shows.

3. Couldn't stand the stuffiness of our room. Woke up sweating every night. After housekeeping brought a fan we were still sweating.

4. The captain was hauling butt out of Cozumel and the ship was very hard to walk on. Lots of turbulence with no explanation.

I will never do this ship for that long. The amenities and entertainment or may I say lack of entertainment was terrible. The staff was great with the exception of 1 server in the blush dinning room he needs to find a new job. He was bothered if we asked him for seconds or lemons even after we requested to have lemons on table daily. This ship should be used for short cruises like 3-4 days.
