We've always had a great time on Carnival. A lot of criticism for Carnival comes from people that have never sailed Carnival.

Went on our very first cruise ever on the Ecstasy. Had a great time despite our Ports being cancelled due to hurricane Dorian. I guess it could be called a party ship. But we hung out on the Serenity deck and loved it. Going again on the Ecstasy this January. Carnival has already got us as a long time cruiser. Cabin was great, food was great (and it was alot of food) and the money we saved went towards the Cheers drink package. Best part was the Amazing crew and staff. When the Captain stops by ur table and thanks you for sailing on his ship, he had us hooked. #CarnivalFanBoy

Have been on carnival ecstasy 4 times and love it. Going on sunshine in a few weeks. Some people will complain about anything and everything. We love carnival. Have never had a bad experience.

Only been on Carnival and RC. I always see people say that Carnival is nothing but a party ship. We don't drink and to us both cruise lines seem pretty much the same- no more drinking then on RC- all cruise ships have drinking. We now go on gospel cruises and our entertainment and dining is all set up for our own group of people- of course we run into people drinking but it isn't any different then RC and I like that Carnival has frog legs etc lol- RC looked at me like I had 2 heads when I asked lol.

People trash Carnival all the time. We have cruised with Carnival 16 times and have always had a great time.

We love Carnival too. I was skeptical at first just because of a the negative stuff people were saying. So not true. We have never had a bad experience on any of the 10 Carnival cruises we’ve been on.
