Carnival Conquest Cruise Reviews - Reviews

Our cruise changed itinerary twice. In the end, only one out of four of our original ports was kept. When our most prized port, the one we really bought the cruise for - Turk and Caicos - was cancelled due to hurricane damage, we were hoping to be given the opportunity to cancel. Since we didn’t have the option, we had to go on the cruise or lose our money, including airfare. While we were on the boat, another route change occurred. This time we were rerouted to Ocho Rios Jamaica and Grand Cayman, both of which we had already been to before. The route change did not make sense from a risk-avoidance standpoint. The change actually put us closer to Maria’s path instead of farther away from it! Curacao and Aruba are much further west than Ocho Rios and Grand Cayman and therefore farther away from Hurricane Maria’s path! Everyone we had talked to suspected that the change was to save money, not to avoid Hurricane Maria! Carnival took advantage of the hurricane threat to save money by sailing a much shorter route. The detour destinations were a cheaper substitute than the itinerary we purchased. We therefore feel cheated by the cruise line! Food and service on board were good, but the Music was sub-par. Every one of the bands, except for the Hispaniola Duo played for themselves rather than their customers they were supposed to entertain. Example, it was all 80’s music, very oldie, moldy, and they played the same thing over and over again. Example: We requested a romantic tune for dancing, and ten couples got up to dance. Instead of taking the cue, they went right back to the playlist they had after the requested song, making no changes to encourage the customers to dance. Very immature performers! The worst we have seen on any cruise and this is our 10th cruise!

I wish I was home sooner, but due to the weather it went longer than expected other than that it was enjoyable we did have some fun, lost money and laughed.

The cruise ship is beautiful. The food and entertainment is great. The comedians can be hit or miss on any cruise line. The casino allows smoking and therefore the entire 5th floor smelled like one big ashtray. The smoke stays with your clothes. The cabin eventually smelled like smoke because all the clothes smelled like smoke. I am not sure why this cruise was smokier than other ships.

More activities needed to engage all age groups and not just those in their 50s, 60s. The club needs updated and diverse music to entertain the different cultures that cruise with them. More food choices needed and the juices (Apple, orange) tasted really funny...not too sure they are real. Soda machines should be located in the buffet dinning room or atleast have someone walking around with them instead of only alcoholic drinks. My party and I had to keep getting up from the dinning table to walk out to the pool area in order to get soda.

Overall it was a fantastic relaxing Cruise. The food good the lines weren't very long and the ports were wonderful. We always felt safe and happy and are already looking for our next cruise on the carnival.

GREAT CRUISE FOR MY 1ST TIME. STAFF WAS EXCELLENT VERY ATTENTIVE. FOOD WAS GREAT, ALWAYS A DINING OPTION AVAILABLE. WATER WAS BEAUTIFUL. I JUST WISH DRINKS WERE INCLUDED IN THE PRICE AND THE ON BOARD DRINK PACKAGE FOR UNLIMITED DRINKS IS NOT REALLY UNLIMITED

Like I said in the description Wonderful....except. Not getting the onboard credit seemed rude and unprofessional. The food was really good. All the entertainment was top of the line. The staff really made you feel important and waited on like royalty. Effy, the onboard jewelry store, is amazing!

This cruise ship was horrible. It was very dirty. The employees were very unprofessional, rude, and not friendly. The food was not fresh and nobody wore gloves. At the pizza station they were making pizza with no gloves. The bartenders were very rude and they did not want to wait on you. The employees never looked cleaned. Uniforms were wrinkled, stained, and faded.

We had a great time on Carnival Conquest. Peter the cruise director did a great job in making memories that will last a lifetime and because of him I am still saying byyee!😃 You all should look into having designated smoking areas in the casino during picture taking time. Not everyone smokes nor can everyone tolerate second hand smoking. Either a designated smoking area needs to be enforce or change the location for picture taking to prevent guest from getting sick or guest changing their minds from taking pictures all together. This is what I observed while on the ship.

Nice time but short islands stay. We need at least 10 hours stay over each islands. Psycho Jamaica is ok, the food is not that good on the tour . Cayman islands was perfect. Food was nice and best beaches

Good value for the money but you get what you pay for as far as quality & customer service. Excellent comedy shows but go early because seats fill up quick. Great stage show performances. Dont miss dinner. Pizza pirate is the only thing open after hours & comes with long lines & horrid customer service.

The cruise line with we chose was a good line.We have a very good time in Jamaica doing horse trip and Dunn's River Falls and we see the beautiful 7 miles beach on Grand Cayman. The personal on the cruise was very professional and friendly.

This Cruise would have been better if I had my window if people were not smoking marijuana in the back of the ship and if the cruise line is Nicole die me for every little teeny weeny thing

Great value for the price paid. Be careful of all the onboard charges, they add up fast. Overall great cruise line for a family. Don't waste money on exterior cabin, the interior was fine!

The overall experience was amazing and will definitely have to do it again. From the staff and crew the ship and the excursion...food and drinks. LOVED every moment.

This was a great introduction to cruising for my (college age) kids and a great reminder for my wife and I of how much fun they can be. We went on excursions at every port and enjoyed almost everything. The only downside was down time on the sea day, since we are the type who want to stay busy on a vacation.

Ecellent experience. We would prefer shorter cruises as we enjoy outdoors. Too many days at sea for us. This cruise was way too crowded for us so we would cruise different time of year.

Overall good time. Won't do another cruise doe a while I like being free to walk and the boat was so limiting. I love a beach and ocean to walk. I did a Norwegian cruise in March. Too many cruises close together. I want to go back to a resort with freedom to walk.

It was our first cruise and we had such a good time that while we were in the airport waiting for our flights we started planning our next cruise. We will definitely be doing it again.

I'm glad I went on this cruise to see the ports of call, however, I really see no reason to return to any of them. I think I need to go to a resort type of Islam. The water was pretty, bit the beaches and inland were not as clean as I would have expected.
