There were five of us...ages 50-65 and we had a great time. I read all the reviews and chats before we left and I now wonder why all the negatives. So what if there was a rust spot, so what if a crew member didn’t say hello...if you need more pampering than a cruise ship offers...find another type of vacation. I highly recommend the Miracle.
Embarkation
5 out of 5
We parked at Park Connect walked across street, dropped off luggage, checked in, sat in our assigned area and bored all within an hour.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
Maiming dining room food was good, service was excellent. Buffet a little skimpy. Not a lot of choices. We had Cheers and it did not disappoint.
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
Trivia was our go to onboard activity. We all had fun participating...won a few ship on a stick. Hung out at the pool...we never had a problem finding five chairs together.
Entertainment
3 out of 5
The stage shows were very poor from other ships we have been on. Singers were not very good. Comedians were very funny. You need to get to club early or very hard to get a seat. We had to stand for two of the four shows. People would go to the non adult show and not leave for the adult show.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
I read reviews that complained about bad service, but we all felt service was top notch.
Ship Quality
4 out of 5
Loved the decor. It is showing its age. The layout in buffet was dis jointed. Clean and maintained.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
We had three adults in the room and all of our stuff fit in the storage provided. We didn’t feel cramped...the balcony helped. No complaints.
Ship tip
Go to comedy club early for shows. Participate in the fun activities and have a blast.
It took us one hour from the time we got in line until we got our luggage. There were only 2 immigration people at first. They added two more and the process moved much quicker.
We sail in April and have read a few negative reviews. However this is our 2nd time cruising 1st time of the Allure of the seas with Royal Caribbean. Decided to try Carnival this time fingers crossed it doesn't disappoint!
Thanks for pointing out the good along with what other complain about!!
Some people just can't help themselves. 3000 people on the ship and they complain about the lines of people or their luggage was late. I prefer to count the things I enjoy and not be bothered with the rest
