Review summary

Roughest seas of all the cruises I’ve been on. Ran into dock in Roatan, couldn’t tender in Belize and couldn’t stop at Cozumel due to damage during departure in Roatan . Passengers totally upset. Had ship officers cornered at Guest Services

Always get the balcony for beautiful sunrises and sunsets. Perfect chill space with cocktail

Good size ship without being too big. Like the decor of this class of Carnival ships

Wasn’t able to dock at port due to thrusters damage on Roatan departure. Had to divert to Playa Maya. Citizens were in a uproar

Glad you enjoyed your time on the ship. Too bad about the waves tossing the ship about. Great no one got hurt and you got home safely. Living in Florida, we see the beautiful water and the angry ocean both.

We get on the Dream in 59 days. I panicked reading this review, until I noticed the date of the cruise. Lol. Whew!! Sounds like it was a cruise to be remembered.

So you didn't visit the Ports and gave them a 1 star rating. I'm confused with that logic. 😕

So happy to cruise again!

The Carnival Dream is not a Dream. It needs to be dry docked and updated. The WiFi is horrible and forget using the chat.
