Review summary
Avoid Ensenada by all means. I can’t believe carnival even allows this to happen. Literally right when you leave port people asking you to buy meth cocaine or just begging for money. What a shame. Careful too. We had expensive designer clothes and sunglasses and we were definitely being followed. I had to turn around and call him out in Spanish. He still kept following felt so un easy had to go back to the boat. Also they tried to charge me 16 dollars for a beer. So be careful be aware of your surroundings and I mean it. Most corrupt country. This is coming from a Hispanic male too lolEmbarkation

Ship tip
Make sure to bring febreeze. Random sewage odors throughout the ship. When we set anchor at Catalina got woken up to my nose burning from sewage. Like no joke. I opened my balcony door and febreeezed the entire room and went back to bed. The layout is by far the weirdest and most confusing I’ve ever been on. The designer must have been drunk lol. Need to cut thru staterooms way to often to reach a venue. I don’t regret my cruise at all but will never rebook miracle 4 day. Maybe an Alaska cruise but even then idk about this ship. Ensenada was beyond horrifying. This is coming from a brown Hispanic male. I mean they would not leave me alone. Right out of port offering us drugs like heavy drugs. Had two sketchy younger guys follow me very closely until I finally made a scene and turned right around to go on the boat. On the way back other people begging for money telling me they are starving and how selfish I am for not giving them money. I have never felt so disgusted. Literally was targeted since I got off during a random time and basically just us two walking alone. Never ever ever again. Mexico should be ashamed. I’ve been multiple times but this time was beyond crazy.
