My Experience by Amme8

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Carnival Miracle / Destination: Mexico

I enjoyed everything about the cruise. The food was great and the service was excellent. Our servers for dinner Rudolph, Priyo, and Adrieanne were awesome. Our steward Nyoman was awesome. I would recommend this cruise for everyone. A must do.

Sleep like a Baby by SquadCruise

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Carnival Miracle / Destination: Mexico

I loved this cruise.  It was so relaxing and fun!  When we  were on the ship I slept so much and so well.  I couldn't believe it.  The ports were incredible!  I loved how different the two ports were.  It was fun to see different parts of Mexico.  I also loved not having to worry about food are hotels, you have everything all in one with the Carnival cruise.

Mexican Riviera by jminx

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Carnival Miracle / Destination: Mexico

It was a consistent Carnival Cruise. Average food, good entertainment, and expensive drinks.  The ports were nice, and safe. Cabo was beautiful, Mazatlan a busy city, and Puerto Vallarta was ok. Too many days at sea.

It was just OK by MikeJoseph

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Carnival Miracle / Destination: Mexico

The food at the steakhouse was the best meal.  The excursions were iffy as for as what I saw as safety.  To ship it self was OK. It was clean but looked well used.  The part I hated was at times it was hard to get away from the cigaret smoke. The last three days I was a basket case because of my asthma.  People smoking in the bathrooms, by the pools, going to and from the Lido Deck and last but not least using the balcony (our upgrade) getting the second hand smoke from other balconies.  My family did not go a shore in Puerto Vallarta because of me.

 

Our room was taken care of nicely and Emmanuel did a great job keeping us comfortable and even remembered all of our names which made us feel at home.

 

Mexico did not thill use and we can cross it off our bucket list.

7 day Mexican Riviera by Sbancock0618

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Carnival Miracle / Destination: Mexico

Service by housekeeping and the staff at the Bacchus was unbelievable! Staff All Around were so helpful always ready to give you a smile! Room service was excellent the food in the Bacchus we really enjoyed. I preferred to do the Bacchus instead of the buffet. That's just our preference. The entertainment was so enjoyable the activities were amazing there was always something to do. We were treated like royalty!! Best vacation ever!!!! Faster to the fun was the best purchase!

All of us had a wonderful time. by purpledreamsw

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (young children)
Ship: Carnival Miracle / Destination: Mexico

The customer service on the ship was excellent, we felt well taken care of. The dining room experience was always so fancy and delicious. All the activities: shows, comedy, trivia were so much fun. The only thing I'd change is the quality of drinks (the lemonade, orange juice and apple juice seemed fake, like made of corn syrup) and I'd like to see more veggies in the salad bar. Such as spinach broccoli, almonds, more dressing choices. Basically healthier options.

Husband's first cruise by pasnell

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Carnival Miracle / Destination: Mexico

The service in the main dinning room was great.  We had Lady and Kirk serve us and they were wonderful.  

 

As for as the entertainment it really wasn't exciting as they didn't have a very good variety.  In the evening it was about the same type of entertainment, and comedy.

 

My husband and the other man in our party weren't impressed.  The ladies could also do without and find something else to do.  

 

Not much variety to do during the days.

Disappointed in Carnival Miracle by lkmiller

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Carnival Miracle / Destination: Mexico

9th cruise on various cruise lines. 2nd cruise with carnival. 

Very disappointed with this trip. Buffet food was not very good always seemed like a bunch of leftovers put together, not at the temperature that it should be, just very plain and boring. You can definitely tell that they have cutback. The Baccus dining room was ok but not like it use to be nor like it should be. Very surprised when they brought a bill for my husbands steak. All other cruises that we have ever gone on only charge in the specialty restaurants. We had a balcony room, it was nice but never once saw our room steward. Public restrooms were awful. Staff was very friendly except for the lady officer who pounded on our door at 1:00 am to tell us that the balcony light being on was disturbing our neighbor. May I recommend a little sign on the wall that says turn the light off or we will be pounding on your door. Entertainment was also nothing like it should be. What happened to the beautiful shows and costumes? Replaced by comedians that were just so so. The stops we made were very nice we rented vans and had them take us around. This was our 3rd Mexican trip and Cabo, Mazatlan and Puerto Vallarta are always entertaining. Needless to say this will definitely be our last trip on Carnival.

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple

OVERALL THE SHIP WAS GREAT.  FOOD WAS GREAT.  BUT THE ENTERTAINMENT WASN"T GOOD IN MY BOOK.  LACK OF EFFORT ON THEIR PART. Need more of it to keep the passengers happy.

A great cruise with great food and even better customer service. I will most definitely be doing this cruise again. I enjoy the longer cruises more than the shorter ones.

Two day Cabo/ puerto trip by Nacole86

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: Carnival Miracle / Destination: Mexico

My favorite port was Puerto Vallarta I prefered the rainforest scenery, but Cabo had beautiful views as well. Lands End is a definite must see, along with Lovers Beach and divorce Beach.  Puerto had beautiful lush scenery, we opted for a city tour which enabled us to get some really great pictures and an opportunity to visit a few different shops and we even had time to enjoy some fajitas at a mountain top resturant.  The ship was amazing. I loved the literary themes through the ship such as Dr Frankensteins Lab (the nightclub), Mad Hatter's Ball Lounge (Comdedy and movies). Gatsby's Secret Garden is a great quiet area to watch the waves indoors and relax or read. The breakfast/brunch menu in Bacchus is really nice as well as the menus offered at dinner. Take the time to try the local dishes offered at dinners they were amazing. The Pirate pizza is definitely one of the best. Thin crispy oven hot pizza in a few different variations, always my late night stop!! All in all I liked the Carnival Miracle and enjoyed the itinerary although next time I'll stop in Mazatlan instead of  the two days in Cabo.

The Fun in Carnival is Gone by jayaltenhofen

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (young children)
Ship: Carnival Miracle / Destination: Mexico

I sailed on the Carnival Miracle from April 22-29th with my two stepdaughters and their families ages 3-14. I have been on 15 cruises, many of them with Carnival. I must say, the fun factor is gone on Carnival. The lack of a social director out on deck during the midday is very noticeable. As are BBQs on deck. No live band during the noontime hours by pool. The Miracle sorely lacking in amenities. No outdoor movie screen (common these days), just one specialty restaurant, no special features other than mini-golf. You basically have two choices for food: buffet and main dining room. While we enjoyed the comic acts, the shows were all very similar singing and dancing with little variety. The water slide in the back of the ship was slow and poorly placed. The Dr. Suess characters need to be more visible. Movies are nice but you need to have at least one that is animated and geared for the 3-10 yr old crowd.

Mexican riveiera Carnival Miracle cruise by adriandan

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Carnival Miracle / Destination: Mexico

This was our second cruise, first was with Carnival also. Once again we were impressed about the quality of the food served on the Bacchus restaurant, service provided by our table server(table 218), our server Tomi was very friendly.

We had an interior room, 7114, big enough for 2 persons, Rony, our steward took care of our room very good. The embarkation and disembarkation were very well organized and short. The style/décor of the ship was "different" for our taste, but ok. The evening shows were ok, not as good than on the other Carnival Triumph ship. Anyway we appreciated the Director effort to have nice entertainment on the ship. The Disco/Dance shows on Deck 10 were very nice.

We book 3 excursion, 2 of them through website. Mazatlan was by far the best excursion. The excursion in Puerto Vallarta was very bad. The guide, Miguel, took the group for shopping on 3 different stores were we spent half of the time, 2 hours, for shopping. on other important sites like the church, downtown plaza or the beach, we had just 10 or 15 minutes. More than half of the group were furious about this. We were disappointed that we couldn't spent more on the beach.

Anyway, we had a great experience on this ship.Happy

Better 2 years ago by jcappello1

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Carnival Miracle / Destination: Mexico

We had a ocean suite (6185) on level 6, like last time, but this one made squeaking and crackling noises...constantly.  Food was a little less presentable than last trip, but edible.  Came across several great staff members, but our room steward was in another world in keeping supplies in our room.  Comedy shows were pretty good.  Pool water is always ridiculously cold, I know it's ocean water, but warm it up.  The ship was supposedly refurbished in 2015 (after our April cruise), but I saw no evidence of anything different on the ship. Overall, decent cruise, but better in 2015.

was good Itinerary by SASpooner2

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Carnival Miracle / Destination: Mexico

was a nice cruise..cabo was great the luxury day sail was terrific! Carnival has made a few changes that my husband and I were not pleased with. They recently changed the policy for non alcoholic beverages where you cannot without exception bring beverages in plastic bottles. All of our beverages were confiscated.only bring cans...this is another way carnival makes money

They also asked when we wanted are room cleaned and how often which was odd. We had to ask for bathrobes. They were not provided. I am u certain if this is only happening at long beach port as we have never experienced this before. There were other small things that happened. We are really rethinking about continuing to travel with Carnival.

Port excursions by cruisetime420

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Carnival Miracle / Destination: Mexico

I traveled with a group of 14. 8 of us purchased the dolphin excursion through cruise.com.  It cost 155.00 each. It was supposed to include time with the dolphins and ayca buffett and open bar. And it was suppose to be right there in cabo. When we got there we were informed we were booked at the other dolphin place which was 30 minuets away. We waited for over 2 hours to be picked up. When we finally arrived we were told we wouldn't be able to do it. After 30 minutes they said they would squeeze us in. Then they rushed us through. Needless to say no buffett or open bar. We paid extra for that. When we asked for some of our money back they said no. I feel we got totally ripped off. Very disappointed
