Review summary

It was a great overall experience. Drinks are crazy expensive. Spent 50 for 6 cans of beer. Maybe allow people to bring a 12 pack on board like you allow 1 case of soda? People spend enough money to go on these trips im sure Carnival has wiggle room on the beverages. As well I paid 40 for Margaritas. One of the cups had lip stick from whoever before me. I ended up with a positive test the day I got back. Atleast for all the money we spend on a drink ensure that clean dishes are being used. A better system to ensure cups are better cleaned. No way lipstick should make it past any cleaning process. I get it high volume but safety is important.

Love it. Maybe a small broom to sweep balcony every now and then but it was perfect.

Next time get the drink package way better

Unfortunately, beverage sales of ALL types are over the gouging level. Makes me glad we only do water unless we get the booking perk. Take a water filter/purifier and the ship’s water is ok.

Appreciate your detailed feedback. Glad you enjoyed your cruise in spite of the cost of drinks.

Did they not tell you the cost of the drinks before you choose to buy them? I think they're too expensive so I don't order them.
