Review summary

This was my first time cruising, definitely went all out. The experience was great the ports and the ship! However, having a 10 day itinerary was too much and towards the end the other passengers really just got on my nerves. Specifically, people who cough and don’t cover their mouth. The amount of people who seemed sick was a huge turn off for me and cursing in general.

Embarkation

3 out of 5
I wasn’t provided with any information by Carnival, regarding what pier to go to and how to get there. Thankfully I did a fair amount of research and found out myself.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

2 out of 5
This was my biggest disappointment, the food on the ship was unbearable, whether it was in the dinning room or the the buffet none of it was really good. I didn’t try a h specialty dinning.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
The hub app really does an excellent job telling you the massive amount of daily activities on the ship. More than enough to entertain yourself.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
All great, plenty of shows. Hub app does a great job out lining them.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
The highlight of my trip! The men and women we met while at the bar, dinning, at the pool, and house keeping were all incredible people.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
Our guest suit was amazing but small details such as cabinet knobs being loose, cock missing and dirty, and bird droppings all over deck chairs.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Great room! Plenty of room for activities, closet space, and people! The bathroom was awesome with the tub and shower, bar area was great and so was the living room.

Ship tip

Hot-tub during dinning hours.

Sorry you did not enjoy your cruise. We're booked to go on the pride in the spring. Never been on her. What do you mean by cursing? I have never heard a lot of bad language on a ship. Or was that word supposed to be turned off of cruising? Maybe you should try a shorter cruise.

Wonderful itinerary. Sorry the food didn’t meet your expectations. Hopefully, you’ll try cruising again and maybe find a cruise line that fits your needs.
