I enjoyed my cruise and want to go again but the food needs to be improved and offered at all times.
The room experience overall was horrible. I never ever got a good nights sleep the entire Cruise.

It was slow initially but then it sped up and was a nice experience.

Food and Dining

The food was not good and I expected much better quality. I also really disliked how the buffets closed so early and how bacon at breakfast was almost impossible to find. The food at dinner was bland and dry and very small portions.
The only good part of the food was dining in the steakhouse that I can say was an amazing experience and the food was delicious!!

Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Our room stewardess Jennifer was amazing. She remembered our names immediately and tended to all of our needs. Our waiter Sa in the dining room was very friendly and attentive as well. I really appreciated the staff so so much.
Ship Quality
4 out of 5
The ship was very pretty and well maintained.
Cabin / Stateroom
1 out of 5
The size of the room was what I expected but I was miserable in my room for the entire stay. The thermostat to control the temperature in our room never worked. We made multiple calls to have it fixed but it never truly was. Our room was either a sauna and we cooked or it was ice cold and it felt like we were sleeping in a freezer. There was no mini bar in our fridge either.
Did the top 10 best. Our tour guide Gloria was very informative however due to construction we didn’t have enough time to stop everywhere so that was a little disappointing.
Food quality in the main dining room and buffet has gone down on all cruise lines since Covid. Portion sizes are probably what is recommended, but most are are used to eaten portion sizes 2 or more times what is recommended. You can order multiple appetizers and up to 2 of most entrees with no additional cost.
I was not a huge fan of the Miracle either; my least favorite of all my Carnival cruises. I would recommend trying a newer ship before giving up on Carnival. Or if you want a really comfortable bed and a little higher quality food, try Princess.
