Review summary

I have enjoyed every Carnival cruise I have had. With this being my second time on the Splendor, I already knew I would enjoy the ship and cruise and I was right. Although I do think it's time for the Splendor to be dry docked, I do recommend taking a cruise on her and I highly recommend Carnival Cruise Line.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

This was my second time in a row aboard this ship. Although she's older, she was clean and it was a smooth ride. I do think it's about time she goes in dry dock and get a complete makeover, but she still has some life left in her.

Cabin / Stateroom

The Splendor was one of the first ships we went on from Long beach to Mexico 25 cruises ago ... where heading to long beach in sept and leaving on the Splendor long beach in Oct 19 then onto Singapore where she is then in dry dock for one month then heads to Sydney Australia to have Sydney as her home ... so then will look forward to a trip from Sydney to the Pacific islands 🌴 on her .. You have plenty more ships and plenty more destinations to look forward too so happy 😁 cruising guys ...
