Review summary

This was our first cruise and we were somewhat disappointed. The ship is very outdated and needs to be decommissioned. They had select places to eat and drink open so you soent much time in line waiting. The cabin was decent, our steward Sudane was amazing. Maybe the highlight of the trip regarding the actual cruise. At this point, this may be our first and last cruise.

Choose a different ship. Very outdated and you have to wait in lines for everything.

There are better cruises. It's our last with Miracle. We did go on Freedom 5 years ago and it was awesome. 2 years ago we went on Celebrity Equinox and it was fabulous, its also a nice change from the tacky decor Carnival is known for cause, well it's Carnival. I would say try another and if you really want to step it up go with a different Cruise Line. We are thinking maybe Royal Carribean for our next. As much as we didn't care for the ship it worked for the situation. We had a 14 person group, 3 different budgets.

I think cruising is one of those things that you either love or hate. Sometimes one is all it takes to make you realize it either way.

My 1st cruise was on the Miracle. I had a blast. No complaints whatsoever.

Some comments seem unnecessary😞 because you disagree.

Everyone has their own opinion. Not everyone has to agree.

How can anyone judge anything if it's your first time? Also how can you not have fun? Will be taking my third cruise in May and can't wait.

Why complain why hassel with disappointment. It's no wonder that if you just look beyond you can find true appreciation that you were blessed enough to be on a cruise for heaven sake.....
