Carnival Pride Cruise Reviews - Reviews

This was our 1st time out of Baltimore and on the Pride. We loved it! Ship decor was nice. Staff were excellent. Entertainment was great. The only thing I would say it needed would be an update in Splash Town( I think that's what it was called).

I’ve had the privilege of being on this ship twice. It is my favorite carnival ship. I was on the pride a month ago for me and my sisters graduation trip. Everything was fantastic. Our cruise director, Dr. E was hilarious and so fun and really made the trip what it was. The comedy shows were super funny and the shows were also pretty good. The activities never really change, but are still fun. We did plenty of trivia’s and the 80s “trivia” (more like a singalong) is always a fun time. The food was delicious. Our waiter , Claudio, was also amazing and very talented. He also made this trip what it was. There was even some little different things like the chocolate buffet and tea in the dining hall. The guys burger joint was also fantastic. The last time i was on this ship, that wasn’t there. The fries and burgers were so tasty. The nightclub and casino were also pretty fun. We did a snorkeling excursion in grand Turk and it was beautiful. Half moon cay was beautiful as always. In Freeport, there isn’t that much to do except shop but it’s still cool. I miss this trip so much and would do anything to go back. All of the people working on the ship were the coolest and funniest people ever. If you’re thinking about going on a carnival cruise, please choose the pride! you will not regret it

Awesome Cruise!!! Great Crew Staff, Wait Staff and bartenders. Never a boring moment!! Made some great new friends and had a blast with our group of family and friends. Ready to CRUISE again.

Great staff and accommodations fun and sun great people

This was one of the most exciting and amazing cruises. Dr. E made this super fun.

Good Once you got your food not bad, steakhouse is a must! Staff was fast to fix all your issues in your stateroom. The shows are a must and the comedy show is also a must. Not a bad little ship, however carnival booked close to 2900 people on a boat made for 2100. This made the entire trip crowded. Due to that getting food took some time. I really think all of the service barriers were due to the overcrowding. The cruise director and his fun team worked hard to keep us occupied. Last little piece is this boat needs to go in for a major dry dock. I don’t know if three weeks is long enough. I tend to cruise older and smaller boats however this one needs some love almost all over.

We sailed for the first time 15-22 July. We had a wonderful time. Based off previous reviews I somewhat expected the Pride to be in poor condition. Sure there were some rust spots, cracked floor tile and our state room cabinet doors weren't in new construction

Wonderful cruise, planning on taking a cruise for my honeymoon!!!

First of all I love cruising and always seem to have an awesome time on the ship. So many activities, great food, the water views and mostly great people! Our cabin stewardess Rowena was excellent!! Always attentive. Dinning staff, Francisco and Renee John were great and attentive too. Comedy shows were fantastic! Loved all four of the comedians. Alchemy Bar and servers were the best!🍹DeJuan...Yeah! The convience of driving to port was worth the very few negatives we encountered. The ship is older and in need of some up keep. Our balcony had paint chips a plenty on chairs etc. Some common areas had visable rust in need of painting and repair. I heard the Pride is going to dry dock next year, which is needed for general upkeep. Finally, watch the buffett staff...they will try to close the serving line while you are in it! This happened to us twice! Overall, we had a great trip on the Pride and will be sailing on her again!

Some fees are charged that are new like room service. Also need to change Chinese food from the same thing everyday. If you don't change selections then you don't provide a variety. The dining crew at table 142 did a fantastic job. Never got to see the magician. Would have like for him to have a show in the tauj maja

Overall a good cruise. Loved the ship, the crew was not stellar by any means. Dining in the Normandie was slow at best and not high quality. The ship was in poor repair, broken sink in our stateroom bathroom, the water would surge from cold to very hot. I definitely enjoyed my cruise on the Sunshine only a few months earlier better. Think we are through with cruises for now.

Cruise was great. I loved HMC and Grand Turk. The service on the ship needs some attention to. Either we got awesome amazing service or really terrible service. The service seemed like it was overwhelmed most of the time. But it’s still a great ship and I would dock out of Baltimore again.

I would recommend an early Dinner time if you can. Late dining is very late... 8:30pm so you aren't done dinner until after 9:30pm. But the buffet is always available earlier if you want to see a specific show.

This was our 6th time on Pride. We love the ship and itinerary. If you like beaches, you’ll love this cruise. We’ve booked same 3 cabins each time because the balconies can be opened. Makes it very convenient especially if cruising with kids. Great entertainment and food.

We had great service and great fun! Love The Pride and all of the staff. They went over and above for our family vacation and we plan to do it again next summer. The private oasis was worth every penny for the 18 of us. Please think about that if you have a large group.

Already discussing where to go on next cruise, probably next summer! Looking forward to it!

First time on the Pride. Had a great time! This ship rocked more than any of the other Carnival ships I have been on, even more than ones that were smaller. Great service, friendly staff, excellent cruise director Dr. E!! Biggest complaint other than feeling more movement than normal was the temperature in our cabin. Way too hot, couldn't get it cool. Reported it twice, but the problem was never fixed. Luckily we requested a fan and they had one for us to use all week.

This turned out to be one of our most enjoyable cruises and we had a great time sharing it with family and friends.

Suggestions: include soda, bubbles is a rip off! For tea hour offer more than two choices of tea. Wifi is ridiculous! Very expensive and doesn't work very well! Reds in The Punchline needs to learn how to speak in a mike. I actually put my fingers in my ears he was so loud! You couldn't understand him. LOVE the app!!! Can you add 'where the ship is in the ocean' on the app?

Loved It, this was our second cruise and we were not disappointed! Possible cruise for 2019
