Carnival Splendor Reviews

Carnival did offer another cruise 100% comparable to what we spent so not all was lost and they did honor the credit which was already applied to a future trip and booked; we are super excited😉😬

Enjoyed the cruise. Crew was great. Dining room staff excellent. Shows were entertaining

The entertainment crew made this trip great. The ship itself was not worth the money but the fun squad made up for it.

Service was excellent. Room was excellent. Entertainment was excellent. Everything was amazing

Our cabins were located exactly underneath the galley for The Grill. The noise all day and all night was very very loud. Complaints to Guest Services brought assurances that they would, "talk to the food & beverage staff, manager etc." but day after day (including calls to guest services at 4:30am when the noise was worst), made no difference. They kept offering us free excursions which we rejected as we wanted to SLEEP! Finally toward the end of the trip they gave us an onboard credit and a certificate for 15% off a future cruise (??). We told them thank you but that it did not make up for a week without proper sleep (and we were traveling with a 3 year old). They apologized a lot but were unable to solve the issue. The noise was very loud, people dragging things across the floor and banging metal against metal. Also employees talking very loudly. Not a good cruise we were exhausted at the end!

Smooth embarkment, loved the ports, delicious food. The onboard steak house was fabulous. Very friendly staff. Only negative was the entertainment, different shows same boring entertainers. Fast smooth departure.

Awesome has best time very kick pads but very professional Cruise everything perfect especially loved my balcony room!

The cruise was great , the only thing I will like to change is that the Latin group perform in a designated room during the entire cruise...NOT at mid ship, that location is way to crowded. Logistically it's a nightmare location way to much traffic.

The staff was exceptional, the food was very good. If you can overlook the pink decor and you want the ports of call, then this is the cruise for you.

Definitely the best cruise my husband and I have ever had! Thanks to Alex, the cruise director, who's very engaging, funny, and so full of energy, and the whole entertainment, and dining staff!!

This was my wifes first cruise and experience out of the USA and she loved it. We are not much drinkers but would suggest getting the drink package the next time to save a little. We liked the Duty Free Mall on the boat and took advantage of some of the booze buys to bring home and got lots of gifts for ones we thought of and really likes the Cruise Director Alex, he did a great job keeping us informed. We did meet the Captain and his staff and they were happy to see us.

We very much enjoyed our time on this cruise! I would have loved if we didn't have to spend more than one consecutive day solely on the ship. The two days at sea on our way home felt a little long. If we could make a port stop at least once a day or every other day i would have felt less antsy. However, every day we seriously did look forward to dinner with our waiter, Harry, from the Gold Pearl. Harry always wanted to hear about our time on the boat and on land. He was genuinely interested in how we felt about our stay. Harry also made dinner time fun and danced with us during "showtime". So much fun, we looked forward to it each night, so we never missed dinner.

It's too bad about the fumes, otherwise a great trip! I would travel on Carnival again, but not this ship. I would definitely do this itinerary again, the ports were awesome.

Had a great time, however there was a smell of gas throughout the boat which gave me headaches the entire time and still to this day. Not sure what it was. Otherwise the best cruise so far minus the food.

It was a marble experience if not one of the best. Thank you guys for all your hard work

Loved the staff, dining room food, our room. Didn't like the constant "forced fun". We went on a Holland American cruise in September and the entertainment was far better too. But this cruise was definitely more affordable!

Awesome Excellent Service they treat you like the Captain of the Ship

Our cruise was great. Staff was great and friendly. Food was delicious. Worth eevey Penney and can’t wait to book the next one. It was a last min pick but was perfect and enjoyed every minute. It was clean and modernized. I would highly recommend this cruise to my family and friends.

We went with a group of 20. 16 of them had never been on a cruise or in Mexico. The Carnival Staff helped me in every and any way possible to make sure my group was well taken care of which made this trip for them excellent. Any issue we had was attended to at once. They could not have done more for us.

What a great way to celebrate our marriage and time away from all seven of our children. We.made new memories and had a splendid time meeting people from all over the world and enjoying every wonderful moment of our cruise.
