Review summary

This by far was my least favorite cruise. Zero respect for others across the board. It was one large obnoxious booze cruise. Screaming in the hallways 24/7, vandalism, poor attitudes and horrible behavior. I am far from a prude but I was very glad to see the cruise end. And they were right - three days of this while security was nonexistent. While I did have a decent time I did spend most evenings in my cabin. Luckily I’m an early bird so I still enjoyed my time. I think after I’m finished with my B2B2B it’s time to break up with Carnival. Even the staff were frustrated. Sad there are rules that are not enforced. Just not my vibe 🤷🏻‍♀️ thankful this group on the 4 day has been generally a fun group and I’m enjoying myself. Let’s hope it stays this way (dreading the weekend crew coming on Friday!)

Embarkation

Super easy if you can follow directions and read too! I was behind a group that had to leave two suitcases filled with booze and bottle water. Big sigh…

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Generally good. Just hold the mayo! Top many things drenched in it but that’s something I don’t like. You may feel differently. Dining room way better than buffet or deli

Onboard Activities

Enough to do for everyone or not to do. I do wish they’d change the music out once in a while. And lower the volume so it’s not always so distorted. Pools get kind of nasty by mid day because people definitely don’t get out to use restrooms!

Entertainment

Again, change it up a bit. I’ve been seeing the same shows since 2022!

As I’ve mentioned before - she’s old and it shows.

Cabin / Stateroom

I’m still onboard so uploading photos is a chore but I loved this cabin! Roomy. Easy elevator access.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5

I’m B2B so no debarkation.

A three peat. B2b2b2b, wow, I've never done that before. Have done 3 back to backs on 3 separate occasions. I'm glad you got some enjoyment out of the cruise. Thank you for your review.

Sorry the few have to ruin it for many. Why we stick with the longer, old folks cruises.

Yes everyone I am very well aware short cruises are normally party central. This was over the top. Enough so that crew and staff are still talking about it! Since this series of cruises was essentially free for me I gambled and lost! If Carnival won’t attempt to enforce their rules then I’m done with them. It’s sad but I want to enjoy my time. This week has been wonderful and I’ll review it later in the week.

Sorry but short cruises are not for me. Too many disrespectful drunks, and not just 20 year olds.

As others have said, short cruises are more about partying and booze.

we've decided to no longer sail the shorter cruises. 2-5 days are the drunken party crowd, 6 days and over are the vacation people...

It only take a few selfish, disrespectful people to ruin a good thing. Sorry you had to experience some of this.
