Carnival Pride Cruise Reviews - Reviews

1st cruise, it was all I expected. Had a great time and ready to go again.

Although we didn't care for the buffet food or our aft-balcony, we enjoyed our cruise and made the best of it. We our cruising again in June.

Just a great cruise. From the staff to the people we met it was about as good as it gets.

The cruise was good. Staff was great. The ship is a bit older but was ok. Just. Darker then. I like. The cabin. WS very good.

This ship and its crew are absolutely amazing. For someone that has been on the same exact ship before, it is just as beautiful and fun as it was the last time I was on it. To me, the vacation is not defined by the ship, but by the experiences on it. And the cast and crew go above and beyond to make sure each guest is having a great time!

Friends Family and Laughter. I enjoyed it all. Shout out to cruise director Leigh.

As soon as we boarded the ship our rooms were ready. We had a balcony room on the 4th floor with an amazing view. Food-My favorite places to eat on the ship were Blue Cantina, and Guys Burgers. I loved the main dining room for dinner & dessert. I prefer the dining room for breakfast/brunch over the buffet breakfast. The variety of desserts at the buffet were delicious.The Pizza place was great after a night of drinking and leaving Beauties Night Club Entertainment- Beauties Night Club was a lot of fun, the bartenders were nice and the DJ took request and played a variety of classics and new hits. Red frog pub had an amazing band the guitarist was awesome. The casino is nice (not much of a gambler). I heard that karaoke and the lip sync battle was a good time, however I missed it. A lot of other cruisers raved about BINGO. Also one night they had a night party on the Serenity deck, which was a good time. So there is plenty onboard to keep you entertained. Pools- The pool on deck 9 is more family oriented. It’s a big infinity pool that looks amazing at night. The main pool has two hot tubs that stayed packed with children so I skipped both of those pools since I wasn’t on a “family” vacay this time. I did however enjoy the Serenity adult pool area. There is only 1 hot tub and the first few days it was cold. Multiple staff came to check it and a lot of cruisers complained. Eventually it was fixed and I was able to enjoy it a few hours the last day. They have two water slides above the Serenity deck that I went on a few times and loved them both :) Room- I was in room 4219- a balcony room with an amazing view. The room was spacious and up to date. The bathroom wasn’t too small. The room had a lot of storage space, lots of mirrors. Also a full length mirror in one of the “closets” Our room was attended to each day we left it. WiFi- The WiFi didn’t work at all so I was refunded for my package. So I won’t complain about that Drinks- The drinks were good (weak) but good. My favorite drink was the fishbowl in the Redfrog Pub. Make sure you get that drink !! Room Service- Depending on the time, room service took a little over 30 minutes for items such as cheesecake and juice. However it was nice to have. After a certain time they do charge for it. Port Days- They made exiting and entering the ship run pretty smoothly. Just make sure you bring ID or passport AND sign and sail card with you. Overall my experience with Pride was great, this is an amazing ship!

We had a good time, many of the staff were very friendly, the cruise director wasnt seen very often.

This was a truly amazing experience. We had some really rough weather our first day at sea but the crew took excellent care of us all. I was impressed with the organization of the staff. Every detail you needed to know was at your fingertips. The Carnival Hub App is so helpful, no need to carry a lot of extra papers. If you had a question any one you asked could help you. I just loved the ports of call and all the activities. I felt no stress on this vacation.

The boat was beautiful but out of the 7 days the jacuzzi was only warm on the last day which was a major disappointment. The WiFi did not work at all the entire cruise which had me really disappointed.

The staff and cruise director are what really makes the experience what it is and the Pride was a fun cruise to be on. The internet was very slow and disappointing and the retractable roof wasn't working when it rained one day, but you'll be having so much fun doing other things. Some cruise lines/ships allow you to book all your onboard activities so you don't have to show up an hour early to reserve a seat, but the Pride doesn't do that. So if you're good with rolling the dice on whether you'll be able to attend a show or willing to show up early then you'll be happy. I would probably recommend doing my time dining rather than fixed time dining unless you're willing to possibly seat with people you don't know. But we had great meal conversations with our table mates. Some staterooms have CRT TVs, while others are upgraded with flat screens. Some paint touch ups are needed on the exterior but everything is clean and well maintained. If you can get Faster To The Fun. You'll not be disappointed!

Great only thing I didn’t like was pressure to buy spa products after spa services

I was on the Carnival Pride in March 2018. It was my first cruise and a very good experience. The room steward was awesome and remembered our names quickly. The onboard experience was nice as well. I loved the Blue Iguana Cantina and the food in the main dining room. Since this was my first cruise, I did not know what to expect and had no real preconceived notions. The Pride really was a nice jumping off point for my new cruise obsession!

Great time will be doing again soon. Going back in March of 2020.

We had a wonderful cruising experience. The staff was amazing. The food was delicious. The activities were fun filled and I would love to go back again! So much fun!

Enjoyed it, spring break cruise, college kids were great.

Had a wonderful time , ports were switched due to the weather and left 6 hours later but captain made up all the time ! Weather was good , food was excellent and ate at David’s steakhouse and it was awesome (lots of good food) entertainment was good just wish they could change shows around being we go on the Pride so much but not a big deal ,

Even with the delays I had a blast on the cruise. The food was delicious and there was great variety. The breakfast especially was superb. The game shows were unique and fun. The comedy shows were absolutely hilarious. I did not miss a single one and I would recommend all cruisers to go to them. The ship was very clean. Most importantly it's the best customer service I have ever experienced. I felt like I was being pampered. Phenomenal customer service. The staff were flawless and made the trip 10 times better.

It was my third time to the Bahamas but every time I enjoyed it some things have changed and some things stay the same the changes were not bad they're understandable due to the taxes there

We had a wonderful 1st experience with Carnival pride and won't be our last!!
