Review summary

this was the worse vacation, from the time we bored the ship it was all commercial, from asking do you want your teeth whitened, to acupuncture, the food was like cafeteria food, and everything you wanted to do was an extra fee.

the comedy show was raited R so we passes on that. The captains dinner was 50.00 extra,

someone went into our room and used our daughters tampons, and my money clip was taken from our room, the Casino Was full cigarettes smoak, and you had to walk through it to go to other parts of the ship and we are allergic. We ported at 7:30 am and was not allowed to leave the ship until 11:30 am. This was horrible.carnival conquest cruise was not a good experience!

The only thing that is great on an all inclusive resort are the drinks! The food is horrible and no entertainment unless it is a wedding!

So it has to be a R rated show to be good? So you are boring if you don't like that?

I can't take your review serious since you can't spell "rated" and "smoke"! And for the record, if you passed on the R rated comedy shows on the Conquest, you are boring anyway. That was the funniest comedian I have heard in a long time. There was a reason is was standing room only-every show! Thea Vidale!

Will be on this one in February! We can't wait either. Going with friends who just went on this ship with their adult children. They can't wait either.

A cruise is what you make of it. You sound more like a resort person with the complaints you have. Captains dinner was $50 extra?? Tampon thing don't quite get was she keeping tabs on how many she has left? Haven't been in a casino on any cruise ship that doesn't smell like smoke.

Continuing from above part three. And from what I hear the The entertainment and activities are much better than Royal Caribbean Cruises.

Continuing from above. And people I work with have been on the conquest before and loved it. Cruising is just not for everyone but I have been reading cruise review and all the the reviews look great so that's why I booked a 6 night cruise on here and it looks and sounds better than my last cruise but each one is better than last and you only live once and food looks better than on Royal Caribbea

From what I see this is your only cruise so you can't compare this to others and of course extras do cost extra that's how they make money they are in the Business to make money. I suggest you do better research before you spend that kind of money on something. My grandmother that has been on over a dozen cruises just got off the conquest back in December told me she love this ship and recommended

The classes for spelling, punctuation and sentence flow must have been an extra charge as well

We were on the conquest in April. Best cruise so far! Loved it. Ship was spotless, food and shows were good and ports were awesome. (Aruba, Curaçao) the crew was great. I think cruising is what you make it. I was just thankful to be there and not home in the cold and snow!

You have some valid points... But a bad day on vacation is still better than a good day at work....😀

They do have family rated comedy shows too. And of course extra things cost and they advertise. That's the same everywhere and its called marketing. Stay home and watch Netflix next time.
