Review summary

I would not take this cruise again unless many changes were done to docking locations on board cleanliness and service improved I also feel too many activities and give always only for elite I realize they may spend more but when you are first starting out what's the incentive?

Embarkation

4 out of 5
Fine no problems

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

2 out of 5
After about five days it feels like you are eating the same thing over and over again

Onboard Activities

2 out of 5
Many of activities are for small groups also so many things are for elite passengers only Bingo clue dance classes casino what would you close a casino for a whole day before cruise even ends to change to Australia money when you weren't even close why not wait until Hawaii group was off but no you penalize Hawaii group for Australia group when they are going to be on longer that really upset a lot of people also if you can have it smoke free for Australia why not Hawaii group People shouldn't have to smell that when they could go out on deck to smoke

Entertainment

3 out of 5
Enjoyed most shows and other performers

Service and Staff

3 out of 5
Some of staff was really good others were very busy visiting with other staff and not friendly too passengers

Ship Quality

2 out of 5
We were on this ship two years ago to Alaska and ship has gone way downhill n cleanliness Needs eoverhaul

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5
Bathroom needs to be really cleaned not just a surface wipe

Ship tip

Ports of call make sure you are not pulling into industrial areas where the beauty of Hawaii is missed

Ports of call

Vancouver (Canada Place), British Columbia

When was the cruise?

You seem confused about what a cruise is and clearly didn't do your research on this itinerary. Your grandson is so terrible I have no idea what you're talking about between Australia and Hawaii and the casino. Terrible review. Would not recommend. ⭐

They're incentive (first time Carnival cruiser , last April) was a very good quality of fresh food, like salads and fruits , best of our 6 cruises on celebrity, Cunard and carnival. Great services all around the ship, many activities and the most important, paid less per day than all the others. What is not at the top, are ship strange decorations, but I could enjoy at the maximum my vacation!

Maybe if you make a list of locations you would like, improved services and the activities and give aways you would like stopped and/or improved and provide it to the cruise company, they may be able to accommodate you to get your business back.

carnival has went down and we didn't get extra things actually they took things away for past guest cruisers don't give up on cruising just try another cruise line because that's what we are going to do

I am not sure what you think the elite get. It isn't that much! The incentive is just the vacation.
