Carnival Pride Cruise Reviews - Reviews

We were freezing in the main dining room and the Showroom. Had to wrap up in jackets and/or shawls even tho had on long sleeves. Would be comfortable if temperature would be raised about five degrees. All staff was great. Liked the food station set-up at the buffet. However, would be good if they were grouped together a little closer. Some were quite a distance from the others. Had to walk thru the seating sections to get to some stations. Am very pleased that you did not have Free Style Dining. Like having a definite table with same group and not standing in line to be seated. I can stand in line to be seated at Denny's or Marie Calendars.

It was alot of fun and interesting. I cant wait until my next vacation so i can go again. Thank you.

We traveled on the Carnival Pride out of Long Beach California. We paid for a Mexican Riviera cruise and ended up sailing in circles outside of LA. The reason was due to Hurricane Hennriette making landfall in Cabo St. Lucas. We understand that Carnival can't control the weather, but I called the night before to get an update and was told that the trip was still on as scheduled. They did not tell us until we had gotten of the bus transfer from LAX, So what were we to do. There was no time to research hotels in LA, etc. all the things that go with planning a trip. Carnival offered to reinburse our cruise and 25% off the price of our next cruise OR take the cruise, get $200. Carnvial onboard credit (which you end up giving back to them) and 25% off the next cruise. We are not sure we want to travel Carnival again. Additionally, we never received documentation from Carnival, which meant we had no transfer tickets. The bus company was not very understanding and gave us a difficult time. We made the best of the trip. But it was definitely not what we paid for.

Been on this same cruise & ship twice. I like a quite time and the ship is big enough so that you can have both a noisey and quite time . I had heard that carnival is "tacky" but found this not to be true.

For the money, you can get more amenities and better food with more service on other cruise lines

Great cruise overall. I would go on it again. The staff were friendly and courteous. Food was good too. I like all ports. The least I liked was Cabo

I was very pleased with the overall service onboard the ship. I have recently cruised with Carnival before so I had high expectations and was not disappointed. I woudl reccomend this cruise to everyone.

Clean, rooms roomy, lots of activities

As a family of independent travelers who've been around the world, our first experience on a cruise ship (Mexican Riviera) was a deep disappointment. In retrospect, I should have done sufficient research, listened to the misgivings of other like-minded travelers, and not been persuaded by television advertising. My advice to people who have never taken a cruise: think carefully about what kind of travel experience you enjoy, ask specific questions about the amenities/activities both on and off ship, ask others specifics about their cruise experience, and listen to their answers.

The cruise was fun but it would have been better with a group of people. I saw a lot of families. I just went with my daughter, age 11. There was not much for her age group to do.

when we first stepped on board the ship was beautifully decorated beyond our expectations.The atrium was the most beautiful we had seen on any cruise lines ever.Everything that we saw was so on this ship was so cheerfull.The dining room normandy was simply gorgeous.the buffet area had so many food items to choose from,and the view was fantastic.Our room was a balcony and though there was a partial obstruction (life boat),it was so spacious and enjoyable to just look outside.It was our first balcony,and we will always have a bacony from now on.

It was a beautiful ship. I have been on 5 other cruises and this one so far was the best and the prettiest ship. It was great for the whole family and wonderful buffets!!!!!

We found the Cranival Pride ship easy to get around, the elevators were excellent, everything was clean. The food and service was top notch. The variety of activities were good and we'd certainly consider taking another cruise.

Nice large ship, not the largest or smallest we have been on. Great crew, lots of activities, and very good entertainment(shows, bars, art). The ship was not as grand and open as expected compared to others we have been on but was still very nice!

The best part was that you had food for my diabetic husband that he could eat and enjoy. You had vegetarian food for me and soymilk. What a treat.

Very clean, organized and lots of fun

We had one of the best vacations ever. We will definitly consider taking a cruise again.

A beautiful ship with so much luxurious detail, I know that I didn't see everything it had to offer. The crew is phenomenal and they went above and beyond my expectations. I will cruise with them again in the future.

The ship was very clean. The decor was interesting. The most surprising thing was how quiet our stateroom was. We were on the 6th floor (Empress deck) and unless people were stomping up and down the hall (which only happened a couple of times), we didnt' hear a thing! I highly recommend at least a balcony, and if you can get a suite, the extra room in the bathroom is definitely worth it. We utilized the photography/videography services which were great as well. The staff was extremely friendly all over the ship.

The ship was reallly nice...we had a balcony and we really enjoyed it as the weather was so nice and the ship itself was great. The rooms were nice and very well kept.
