Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

The buffet lines were insane, they should have switched where the cereal and fruit was w where the hot food was as that would make it much faster.

The most beautiful sand beaches at 7 mile beach! Embarkation back to the ship was horrible....took 45 minutes or longer Waiting in the longest line to get on a ship to get back.

Belize City, Belize

Our excursion took us an hour away by boat from Belize so we actually didn’t get to the island, but we loved snorkeling w the wild sting rays and nursing sharks...it just took the whole day!

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5

Loved this port! We went to Mr. Sanchos resort and it was amazing. They had so much shade it was truly great!!! People fabulous! The only bummer was our ship was two hours late leaving this port so we wish we could have stayed at Mr. Sanchos longer.

Once again, I hear about “lines” on Carnival buffets. This really upsets me as I’m on the Breeze in about 20 days and the Magic in 2020. Never experienced lines in RCCL or NCL, and one of my RCCL ships was the 6,000 passenger Oasis! Was hopeful no Carnival had evolved to different stations where you just go to whatever station you want. No long stupid lines!
