Ship experiences

Food and Dining

1 out of 5

Food quality has gone down. Less options in dining room. Service extremely slow and received wrong orders multiple times. Only cruise I've come home and lost weight.

Onboard Activities

1 out of 5

So overly crowder you couldn't do anything. Pools closed due to vomit. Ropes and coaster closed most days due to wind.

Entertainment

1 out of 5

Couldn't see it! Too crowded. Hour prior still couldn't get a seat. Tried to go esoet but dining room service was so slow it wasn't possible.

Service and Staff

1 out of 5

They were not friendly. Seemed extremely overworked. Customers treated them horrible.

Ship Quality

1 out of 5

Horrible layout. Too cut up. Venues cannot hold the amount of customers. Tables, hallways, elevators, stairs littered with dishes and cups. They could not keep up. Bathroom on disbarkment day had vomit everywhere including sink.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5

Best part of the trip.

Ship tip

Don't go! Our fifth carnival cruise and it's gone down hill!

All of my 21 cruises has been with Carnival and I can tell you that I haven’t experienced anything close to what you’re claiming! On the contrary, every cruise has been an amazing experience full of fun and lots of great memories! The only thing that I didn’t like of the Celebration was the Center stage! Other than that, the Celebration is a fun ship!

Seems like a lot of issues from one cruise. I don't believe most of it.

I was on the same sailing and it was awful. Carnival had gone down hill. I also saw the Facebook reviews from griyos with very similar experiences. I don't understand why others attack a reviewer. Agree to not agree and keep scrolling. Cant we all just get along and be kind.

The overwhelming number of reviews (95% or better) have exactly the opposite opinion. I read the review as a hit review from someone with an ac to grind. Not helpful at all.

Most seasoned cruisers avoid Carnival at all cost. So many better options that offer more civilized cruise experience.

There have been a lot of changes to cruising since Covid. We have to adjust and move on. Try another ship or cruise line. We enjoy pre and post Covid cruising.

I don't understand if you're concerned with covid why you would go on a cruise in summer 🤷

A lot of people have said that about Carnival and I agree. It was the worse cruise I've ever been on in my 20+ even 3 years ago!
