Review summary

Was looking for an inexpensive cruise for a quick weekend getaway. Had my granddaughter, 19 year old, with me. Due to weather, we were confined to inner ship for most of the time. Not much of interest in activities for her. We did do a spa treatment, it was good, but very $$$. Young adults, if they cannot drink or sunbathe, really don't have any activities onboard for them. Hated the ship and probably will for sure sail on RC next time.

Ship Quality

Did not like to have to manuver up and down floors to get from front to back of the ship. The decor was dismal and outdated, both cabin and interior design and decor of ship. Also, there seemed to be a problem with septic system on floors 3 and 4...terrible odor at all times.

Had to cancel excursion due to rain expected. Stayed a short time. Beach crowded and noisy. Had booked cabana, sure it would have been nicer.

If I had to cancel excursion due to weather at all ports, I think it would have a negative impact on my experience. I bet if you had excursions that weren't cancelled, you would have a better view.

Yes it is a Fantastic Ship full of fun and wonderful things to do. The retractable roof in the back that closes if it rains makes it wonderful.

Sorry to hear. Took my daughter and her friend, both 18 and they had a blast. Of course, they had their own room and did whatever they could do. They did the comedy show, dancing and bingo. But we did tell them to have fun, we only saw them for dinner and port days.

Great experience

Overall great trip! It’s good that so many different people can be on a ship an get along, too bad once you come back to the states you can feel the tension of ignorance. Carnival conquest crew did a great job entertaining and feeding the passengers.
