Cruise part itself was great, the setup and experiences on board are totally different.

Review summary

Brief over view of my cruise... expected alot more from carnival. Like I said in all my reviews(which are 100 percent honest, always are) my expectations are not high at all just very reasonable and very much "common sense". Wouldn't recommend this specific boat(liberty) to anyone. Ya I didn't pay 1000s of dollars but still alot of money to the average person in today's society so definitely have basic expectations, and when there not even met that's sad.

Embarkation

Everything was very smooth

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
I did not like the way the tables were set up so close to other guests. I would of loved to of had sir down dinner the entire cruise but I was not happy at all with the seating arrangements AT ALL, AT ALL. very very unhappy with that. Each time we were literally sitting at a 4 top putting us next to other couples that we did not know making our dinner experience very unsettling and unappealing. We didn't go back at all.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Only activities on the boat was the pools and slide. Mini golf wasn't even included. Had to pay extra for that. ALSO VERY DISTURBING THAT POPCORN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE MOVIES THAT PLAYED BY THE POOL. VERY TASTLESS ACT ON CARNIVALS PART!! 5 dollars for popcorn is pathetic when your on a 1200 cruise. Very very cheap

Entertainment

3 out of 5
Music was great, comedy show was great

Children's Programs

No kids

Service and Staff

3 out of 5
Great service

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Was clean for the most part. Rooms weren't cleaned well at all. Dropped sand on the 2nd night in the room, stayed there the entire time. Was never vacuumed up. Don't walk around barefoot and wet when you get out of shower because your feet will be black because the carpet is so disgustingly dirty. Sheets were never changed. Got sheets dirty first night from going from shower to bed and stain was there the entire 4 days. Again very poor on carnivals part

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Very upset that there was ONLY 1 ELECTRICAL OUTLET. AGAIN VERY CHEAP ON CARNIVALS PART. HOW DO YOU EXPECT ANYONE TO KEEP THERE PHONES CHARGED WITH ONE OUTLET. ESPECIALLY WHEN ITS A ROOM FOR 2 PPL. VERY AGAIN TASTELESS ON CARNIVALS PART. Also

Ship tip

I might say because of the negative things, not alot, but what was negative was very very important, so I might suggest to pick a different boat. Sorry carnival Liberty

Ports of call

Nassau, Bahamas

Sophia Why exactly would I lie?? I get nothing out of it. Frankly I don't care if you believe me or not it's not a review for "Sopha" it's just reviews, our thoughts about the cruise we were on. Again I gain absolutely nothing about lieing. Seriously.. I don't know you people so why would I lie. And honestly people lie about Good reviews not bad ones. You get things from certain companies when they ask people to write GOOD REVIEWS NOT BAD ONES. So again no reason for me to lie. Just my opinion not everyone else's. and YES THEY DO CHARGE FOR MINI GOLF. 5 DOLLARS. not much just like the popcorn but it is still not included

Carnival does not charge for mini golf.

Appreciate your feedback. When did Carnival start charging for mini golf? Some of the older ships haven’t added any way to have more outlets for charging all the things we need these days. Sorry this cruise didn’t meet your expectations.

Half of his complaints are just the way it is. Sad to hear that room cleaning has slipped so much but with the ‘no cutbacks’, especially on the cabin staff, it happens.

No other reviews listed. Sorry, I don't believe this review. Been on this ship twice, no problems.
