Carnival Paradise Cruise Reviews - Reviews

Overall it was a relaxing cruise that we really enjoyed. Food was excellent, ship clean, entertainment was great and the cruise director was sociable and got around to greet a lot of people.

Small old ship. It felt crowded… and most of the clientele… I’ll just say that Carnival is the Walmart of cruise ships. There, I said it.

Cruise WAS SHAKY MOST DAYS BUT FUN, EXCURSION THROUGH Shore EXCURSIONS WAS NOT ALL UP TO PAR AND ALMOST RUINED 2 DAYS OF MY TRIP

Although it was a fairly short 5 day cruise, overall, a very good cruise. Good food, excellent service and good time away. We renewed a friendship with Catherine, a dining room server whom we first met in October/2022 on the Carnival Panorama out of Long Beach, California. A delightful young lady who sang for us on 2 occasions after dinner. It was great to see her again! We also enjoyed the Platinum/Diamond reception with the Captain and Senior Officer's on day 5. Our cabin steward was attentive and very efficient. The cruise director was high energy and kept everyone informed. She did a great job! This cruise was a good bang for the buck, and I would recommend it to anyone. Well done Carnival!

Great experience cruising with family on the Carnival Paradise! We loved Bimini and look forward to returning there! Joe's Conch shack was a fun experience with good food! Conch fritters were great! Nice bakery next door also. Gorgeous, natural beauty in Bimini!

Not happy with room accommodation. Layout primarily

First cruise was really nice. Def a bit loud / overwhelming in places but easy to find quiet places to decompress

Not getting to go on my excursion was a big let down. Having carnival offer me a shortened alternative worse option for more money was an even bigger let down!

Great time with my hubby and daughter. It was very irritating that both of our excursions were canceled and we didn't know about that. One we got a days notice to look for something, the other when we got off the ship. Getting off the ship in Cozumel there were NO instructions which made it confusing.

We had a wonderful time overall. The crew and staff were friendly and seemed eager to help. We did not add any excursions but if I had to do it again I would do so rather than just roam the city and shops. Amber was a great director!

To the cruise director Amber, to the bar servers Singh and Dianara, and the food wait staff in the Destiny dining room...it was a fantastic cruise! I truly enjoyed every area I visited and felt the boat could be a 2nd home...and it's been a minute since I felt that way about a cruise! The 80's to the Max performance was stellar and could be Vegas worthy!!

• Spring break cruising out of Tampa is first class. We typically stay in Orlando where the hotels are cheaper. Sailing under the Skyway Bridge is memorable. Western Caribbean ports of call are fun & usually have great weather. Do yourself a favor – book a room on the Paradise & go have some fun in the Caribbean sun!

It was wonderful! Staff were very attentive. Food was yummy. There was always something to do for our whole family from youth to grandparents. What a great experience!

It was a good cruise to take newbies on but I will not do that trip again. And I will repeat that Carnival should take a hard look at the games played on the Invisible boat excursion (shameful).

This was our first cruise and we really enjoyed it. It was relaxing and we were able to drop our kids off at camp ocean which two of our three loved. My youngest did get hurt when a crowd rushed the stage that he was dancing in front of with some other kids, they were the only ones out there then they brought out the glow sticks and he ended up with a knot on his forehead because he got hit when a crowd of grown adults rushed up to get the glow sticks. I feel like they should really hand things like that out in a more organized way. Other than the one incident we loved it and plan on doing it again.

Was expecting the same fun cruise that we have enjoyed in the past. We were disappointed.

A little less than expected but overall very good. Platinum member and only sail carnival. This is an old ship so small and not alot of bells and whistles.

We absolutely enjoyed every minute. So much so, we are looking into another cruise very soon.

This is a good cruise, just to get away. Both BImini and Nassau are nothing special. Leaving out of Tampa is very easy and we will leave from there again.

It was OK at best. I'll never go back on this ship. Very small. You can feel every single wave. Lack of things to do made it feel like a very long cruise.
