I was pleasantly surprised by the Carnival Miracle. I went into the cruise with low expectations, and was completely blown away by the staff, the ship, the philanthropy of Carnival, and how they handled things when they went wrong (like the tour guide not showing up). The food in the restaurant was amazing, and we had a one of a kind experience when we attended the Chef's table. The Miracle is one of the smaller ships with Carnival, and while I originally saw it as a downside, the reality is you have a 2/1 passenger to staff ratio. We are already looking in to our next Carnival cruise.
Embarkation
5 out of 5
Since we were suite guests, we were able to cut the line and checkin and embarkation was a breeze.

Main dining room and Chef's table were absolutely spectacular. The Lido deck buffet was meh.

Cabin / Stateroom

Perfect location and view. Great size with LOTS of storage.
Port amentities were great, unfortunately our excursion guide did not show up, but the Carnival staff were amazing and gave us a full refund and 50% off of another excursion.
Unsure of port itself, as we were taken to the mainland and immediately boarded a bus to Tulum. I highly reccomend the VIP tour as ruins, ziplining, kayaking, snorkling and and the BEST lunch of the trip.
Thanks for a great review! I was feeling the same. We sail on her at the end of the month and had seen so many mixed reviews. This is our 3rd Carnival cruise and we've been so happy with the previous ones.
