Review summary

Enjoyed cruising on the Carnival Horizon with my husband as we celebrated our wedding anniversary. The staff made the cruise comfortable and enjoyable. The entertainment and other activities were fun, so many options! On a serious note, we were heartbroken to learn of a passenger's death on the ship as we returned to Miami. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Nancy, room steward, provided outstanding service--always with a smile. We really appreciated her attentive service and cleanliness of our room. Our main dining room wait staff - Sari, I Ketut and Beny were personable - always remembering your name and preferences, and provided great service throughout the trip. We also had great service during breakfast in the dining room during the couple of times we skipped the buffet. Highly recommend having breakfast made to order!

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
The ships interior was well-maintained throughout the cruise. The exterior was cleaned during port visits. It is amazing how much continuous maintenance occurs.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Comfortable space with balcony. Met our needs throughout the cruise.

Ship tip

Plan your activities using the Carnival hub app. It will keep you on track with timing, how to get around the ship, etc.

Ports of call

Miami, Florida Did not visit port

Flew into Miami and directly on to the ship the morning of the cruise.

Ocho Rios, Jamaica

5 out of 5
Did some shopping at the port.

George Town, Grand Cayman

5 out of 5
Spent time at one of the 7 Mile Beaches

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
Walked port shopping area.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Quick and efficient due to Faster to the Fun. Also, hire a luggage steward as you disembark and you'l have assistance with all your luggage and will move ahead to customs very quickly. Worth every penny.
