Review summary

this was our honeymoon and the service on this ship was horrible! The staff were not friendly and very rude! The food choices were very limited and didn't taste good at all. The ports were great but the overall shop and cruising experience was horrible! Spoke to guest services about some of the incidents and they didn't care at all. Will never go on this ship again and maybe not carnival again.

Some tips our room steward gave us was to call carnival like a week before your cruise to see if there are any rooms available to be upgraded! Usually it's an extra 50-100 bucks but you can never beat a good deal if you're willing to get it :)

I was on the splendor 05/24/15 and the staff was AMAZING. Our room steward was basically our best friend always calling us by name even the first day, gave us tips for our next cruise and hoped that he was with us again. I don't know if you came on the boat with a bad attitude and soaring expectations but I was on the Splendor and it was awesome.

Comments like that are exactly WHY people don't post their negative experiences.. because people make them feel like crap and feel like they have done something wrong..

Neither one of us ever said anything about it being ruined, just that the service was very poor on all levels. For those of you that had a great time I am extremely happy for you and I'm not taking anything away from those that did we are just relating our personal experience. And no this was definitely not our first cruise just our first cruise on Carnival. And our last

We were on our honeymoon on that cruise as well and had the exact same experience as you guys did horrible horrible horrible. The Port of Calls were the only saving grace.. I too called guest services and I got the same canned response as you did

Love cruising with Carnival. Sometimes it's about you and your attitude. Been married 42 years. For better or worse. You can always find some bad times but remember and cherish the good times.

Your out of mind went on this ship last year had a great time, the crew bent over backwards to make sure you were having a wonderful trip. The food was very good with the exception of the buffet. We're going on the splendor again April 10th :)
