Carnival Paradise

4 Night Baja Mexico (Los Angeles Roundtrip)

Sail date: February 14, 2011

Ship: Carnival Paradise

Cabin type: Inside

Traveled as: Couple

Reviewed: 13 years ago

Review summary

The ship's decor was pretty gaudy with a lot of color on the interior, seemed like a Picasso painting gone wrong. There were several life boats that appeared to be missing and the storage cabinets in the hallways either didn't lock or weren't closed properly as they would open when the ship swayed. Worst of all, my credit card was charged foe someone else's excursions and onboard purchases! I've complained but it takes about 2 weeks to for someone to even call you back, who knows how long it will take to get reimbursed.
