Carnival Sensation - Reviews

My first cruise experience with Carnival Sensation was excellent overall. I enjoyed the ports of call, the cruise director and entertainment, as well as all the delicious food! This experience was rejuvenating for me and was the perfect getaway from my everyday reality.

Overall, a very nice trip for family. 24 hr food, full of entertaining activities on board and Caribbean islands, excellent service, friendly people...

Carnival targets a certain demographic, so don’t expect great food food or entertainment.

Overall I enjoyed the cruise. I really wish there was more to do like different shows, activities, and events. The staff were GREAT.

It was a wonderful experience and I loved it all. The islands we visited were lovely and the water was amazing. I will definitely take another cruise in the future. The food and the entertainment on the ship was so enjoyable and I had never been to a casino but I enjoyed that as well and even won a little bit of money. I’m looking forward to the next cruise.

The best part about my experience on sensation was that it wasn't over crowded. This helped me to enjoy my stay! I was able to maximize my day. The best part was waking up early in the morning and having the pool to myself!

Research your ship. Don’t just go by the travel agent’s advice because they maybe misinformed or just plain don’t know what they are talking about or maybe just lying outright to make a sell!

The only problem I found was the cabin for 5 people. it's not comfortable its too small, if the offer a deal for 5 and put you in a ocean view cabin with no space it's not a good deal. Grand Turk was not a good choice as an option for Cuba, better stay in Bahamas one more day or other place, but not a good option.

This was my first cruise. We had a big group of family. Everyone was able to do what they wanted!

Overall, you get what you pay for. Ship appears old and dated decor that needs to be replaced.

Small, older ship, Carnival Sensation has a little something for everyone. It was the cruise team members/fun squad that made the cruise enjoyable.

We made the best out of a situation that was out of our control.

I cannot express enough that I do not recommend Carnival Cruise Lines!

Fun, relaxing (more or less) cruise in the beautiful Caribbean. Kid and family friendly to an extent (expect to meet some of the less agreeable side of society from time to time!), good food and plentiful drinks.

I was not pleased with Carnival Sensation as soon as we boarded, our room was small and smelled musty, sheets and towels were dingy, food was mediocre, activities were scarce WiFi was weak and the ship itself was old and not updated

After 6 cruise on this ship, never again will I sail on this ship

This is a fantastic 5 day cruise with 3 incredible stops. We will definitely do this one again. We went with 1st time cruisers who had an absolute blast. And if you book far in advance, you can get a great deal through !

The absolute worst cruise EVER!!! Filthy ship in poor repair! Awful food! Awful service!! Fairly good entertainment! Don’t forget, we both came home with Norovirus!!!

Worst aspect of this cruise was the food which was very salty and over cooked.

Overall it was a great experience and knowing how the process goes i will be signing up for my next cruise.
