1 out of 5

Worst vacation ever by far

Sail Date: December 23, 2015

Reviewed: 1 year ago

Traveled As: Family (young children)

Room Type: Oceanview

This travel agent along with carnival ruined the Christmas of my 4 children and family. False information from caused us to have poor accommodations and nothing to do on this outdated and rickety boat. The excursions were awful and not at all what was represented. Please look elsewhere for any travel needs. I would have given NO stars but that wasn't an option. My family and i travel all the time and have never had such a bad experience overall.

Cabin / Stateroom		Horrible. A bed folded out literally a foot over my bed. I slept in a coffin every night. Literally you can't move because the bed above you is a hazard if you do. Can't explain how awful this was. The travel agency promised us tr hat we would have plenty of room.

Sad to hear your Christmas vacation was RUINED! I thought having family together was the point of christmas. Some people would do anything to have a crappy cruise just to see family. If you ever cruise again, pick a bigger ship and a better travel agent. And do more homework yourself. Happy New Year!

Its not hard to find that the ship was built in 1990. I do my research on the ships before I book. I even change my destinations if its not a newer ship. I know what I want when I go into the travel agency! Good luck on your next vacay

I agree- find a better travel agent and for sure do research on your own. Cruise critic and Fodors offer great reviews. Sadly, on this app you hear a ton of bad stuff. I'm glad I didn't listen to any of the bad stuff about Valor to Belize because it was great. But to have nothing to do? The daily agenda is delivered to your room every night! And the Camp Carnival is fabulous on this boat!

Since you didn't indicate if you had more than 1 cabin, I will assume you had 4 kids PLUS 2 adults in an Oceanview (6 people) and your complaining about it being cramped? ALWAYS do your research before booking a cruise. Since you didn't add the exact cabin to your post (just that you had an Oceanview cabin), I went by the stats for occupancy in an Oceanview on the ship and it states 4 people! It took all of 2 minutes to find this out. The ship was just drydocked in 2013 and will again be drydocked in 2016 to add more amenities. There are MANY sites, blogs, pages and threads where you can research any ship. Maybe next time you may want to consider utilizing them to ensure a good cruise.
