Review summary

I realize you have to cater to the current younger crowd, 2-40 year old.  There were bachelorette parties going on were the girls were playing inappropriately in the pool area.  The mom's of several children had to pull their kids out of there to avoid this exposure.  The language of many of the girls throughout the ship was appalling.  This is no longer a cruise line for families and you should notify your guest as such if you do not police and control peoples inappropriate behaviors.  This was my first and last trip, and I would not recommend it to anyone I know.  I'm sorry for this, however, a positive was, the staff and crew were very friendly and helpful, the food was much better than I had hope for.   Stella Ortiz/Yvette Hamilton

sounds awesome. i like kids but i just tune them out or pretend they are not on the cruise. its a party ship maybe you should go viking river cruises or dolphin. im sure it will be boring enough for you. lol

Wow, I am sorry rude people were on your cruise. Crew is usually really great about shutting that nonsense down. I hope you give Carnival another chance. I usually travel with my 3 kids and we get so wrapped up in ourselves; guess we don't pay attention. ;-)

Welcome to the world of cruising.  Thanks for posting your first review here.  Although this cruise did not go well, there are plenty of other ships out there.  I think that a longer cruise would have less of a party atmosphere and would suit you better.

Sorry your first cruise did not go well.   The 3 night weekend cruises are party cruises and lots of younger folks and drinking.   Look at this cruise as seeing if you like being on a ship, the idea of ship life,  the food, entertainment and port visits.   Since you liked the staff and idea of a cruise you may want to try another but on a better cruise line.  Cruise lines and itineraries cater to different demographics.  You may have luck working with a good travel agent to find the cruise line that is rite for you.
