Review summary

I have bin cruising with Carnivall for years and Carnival Conquest was my worst experience.  We eat the same food every single day. My friends payed $440 to have 15 drinks per day and if they ordered drinks they had to wait 10 min to order another one. Visits to the ports were unbelievably short and I don't even want to talk about waiting an hour or two to get out of the ship. One time I asked the guy who cleaned our room to give me a beach towels he told me 'I gave you yesterday. ". When we were ordering Drinks we waited at list 20 min to get them. I can go on and on and on with this bad review. However this cruise doesn't worth your money.

I am definitely switching to Royal Caribbean.

Been on 21 carnival cruises and loved everything about it.

I must of had the best room steward on the boat! He gave me 2 beach towels (cruised solo) and kept my room spotless! I never ate the same food twice at night. Also, never waited more than 15 min for a tender or to leave the ship. Sorry you had a bad experience. Maybe a different Cruise line is what you need.

Some people just want to start something. If you had a truly bad experience, its your right to NOT cruise Carnival. Your opinion is just that YOUR opinion. The majority feel differently & will continue to cruise with Carnival as I will. No not every time will be picture perfect but it is what you make it. We set sail on 8/28 and fully intend to enjoy our vacation to the fullest REGARDLESS of the negative comments.

I've been on 23 cruises Aug 20th will be cruise 24. I love carnival but you can't satisfy everyone. Next time it might be better.

Good, go on to Royal Caribbean. I am sure they have everything ready for you. Don't come back here and write anything bad about them. I don't know why you ate the same thing every day, they only have about 10 different places to eat.

Everything you are complaining about is explained in written terms. When you book the cruise you can see how long your port stay is. And beach towels are available at the pool. I also sail RC and its a nightmare getting off the ship also even worse if you have to tender.

Why did you eat the same for every single day? That's your fault if you did. You only have to wait 5 min between drinks. This is stated in the packages terms. All port visits are usually the same amount of time. Sometimes you may get one that you get to stay longer at, but not often.
