Review summary

Absolutely wonderful experience. CArial Glory was a wonderful ship. Exceptional staff and wonderful food.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
We went from Uber to the ship in 10 minutes. Everything wentry smooth and plenty of Carnival employees telling you where to go. We got there at 12:15, with a check in time of 12-12:30. I couldn't believe how smooth it went.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
We chose anytime dining. Only waited 5 minutes at the most. The Golden dining room was beautiful, very organized and exceptional service The food was great. The only thing that wasn't great was the lasagna, dry and no sauce, just meat and noodles, a tiny amount of tomato sauce and a little cheese sprinkled on top. The steaks for breakfast and dinner were delisious. Asked for more butter for the bread basket and had it right away. Buffet was good, not as good as Dining room. Lines weren't too long, but went quickly. I wasn't real impressed with Guy's Burgers, the fries were great, burger just ok. The seafood Shack was great.

Cabin / Stateroom

Cabin 8461. Aft balcony. Room was clean and very comfortable. Bed was great. Drain ran a little slow in the sink, but was fixed right away. 3 min after room Stewart was called, I got a plumber.

Ship tip

Use the Carnival Hub for deck plans, I finally found my way around on the last day. They do have deck plans by every elevator though

Ports of call

New Orleans, Louisiana

3 out of 5
Stayed in the French Quarter. Unless you are a big partier, stay somewhere else.

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
Beautiful place, great beaches. We went to Nachi Cocom. It was geared more toward adults. Quiet, peaceful and beautiful. Excellent food and good drinks included. Best part of the cruise.

Progreso (Merida), Mexico

5 out of 5
Everyone said, don't even bother. I found it to be an excellent experience. Yes you are bombarded with offers of massages and to purchase stuff, but the beach was beautiful that day, and lots of good food. I did get a great massage for $25 but a big tip was asked for.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Went very smooth. I liked that you were able to choose your own number of disembark order. We chose the latest time and enjoyed more time on the ship. Went very smooth, no long lines.
