Review summary

The cruise itself was amazing but encountering rude staff members and bartenders really made us want to give Carnival a nasty review! The Steakhouse was good but after 8 of us ate there 5 out of the 8 got food poisoning!! Food in the MDR was on point as usual! Food elsewhere on the ship was mediocre!

Food and Dining

Steakhouse made 5 out of the 8 in my group sick!! Food elsewhere was just mediocre.. only time food was amazing was in the MDR(Jesson) was truely amazing!!

Alchemy Bar

5 out of 5

This bar is by far the best bar on the Entire ship hands down!! Swing by and try some drinks!! Every time I stopped in Vasko was always there with a smile on his face to make sure everybody was taken care of! All three that were working there were all amazing!! Vasko went above and beyond to make sure everyone’s experience was the best! We love you Vasko!!

Service and Staff

Yeah, I’m not going to put much stock in this review. It is eerily similar to MarcieL’s except in her version it was 6 people and not 5. Same cabin number so I’m assuming you were traveling together but the stories don’t match.

Complicated layout? My 12 yr old masters ship layout after day 1, and we have been on larger ships than the Conquest lol. And what’s funny is the terrible reviews of staff and all ur pics are of smiling staff members! Lmao! I’m sorry if u didn’t have a good vacation, but we have never been that unlucky. We love Carnival and can’t wait for our next one.

I have never had any issues with Carnival and I'll be going on my 20th in November.... sounds to me like you should try to find a different way to vacation
