Carnival Splendor Cruise Reviews - Reviews

Going to Australia and New Zealand was a bucket list trip and it was so worth it!! I would go again if I have the chance. Everything we saw and did was just amazing!!!

Amazing cruise port experience, food quality and temperature could have been better. We had the best cabin stewart.

The overall cruise was a disappointment. We were not compensated properly for

Thanks to every single crew member, they work really hard and they deserve better pay and time off. At least we can be nice to them :)

Do not sail on Australian Cruises. We noticed that unlike American Cruises there did not seem to be a lot of cleaning and up keep of spaces. Lots of food on plates and glasses left on tables throughout the day. Did not notice anyone wiping down common areas, elevators, etc. As a result, many reports of COVID infections from this cruise on Facebook to include us for the first time in 3 years. Very disappointing.

This was not my first Alaskan cruise and maybe that was the problem because the weather on my first one was better. But you also don't sail as far because it is round trip from Seattle. I think for a first time Alaskan cruiser you would want to do the inside passage one way so you have more time in port. And maybe also a smaller ship.

GOT INTO VICTORIA LATE AND WAS TOLD BY THE PEOPLE IN GIFT SHOP THAT THE CAPTAIN OF OUR SHIP DID NOT LIKE TO GO INTO VICTORIA AND THAT HE WAS LATE ALL THE TIME AND ONLY HAD A LITTLE OVER A HOUR THERE BECAUSE OF IT. BUT THE CAPTAIN DID GIVE US EXCELLENT TIME FOR WHALE WATCHING

Smooth sailing past gorgeous scenery with stops in mostly interesting places

this was an awesome cruise we had the best weather ever all the reports were calling for rain we didnt get any

It was totally the best experience I have had in along time

Alaska was amazing! Definitely go for the views and Alaska. Take a different ship though. We found this one lacking in entertainment that appealed to a wide range of people.

Took the small boat excursion in Tracy Arm - expensive, and the cruise ship went most of the way up the fjord - further than my prior experience on Princess - would not do again. I would like to try the Glacier bay itinerary if I were to do another Alaskan cruise. Sitka was enjoyable - Raptors, Bears, and Barnacle excursion was good. Weather was not very good in Juneau & Ketchikan. We previously took a similar cruise in May, and the weather was better - but that could just be the luck of the draw. We did get a break from the summer heat in Las Vegas, so that was one objective achieved.

Overall Alaska is phenomenal. The scenery is breathtaking. Carnival was great as usual. Really the only way to see Alaska.

We have been on over eleven cruises. This was the worst due to Covid documentation, port timing, redundancy of main evening entertainment and shortened food venues.

This was an enjoyable break from the Covid madness, but the kinks are not quite worked out. my biggest complaint is the use of the dependency of the phone onboard. The main reason I go on cruises is because my phone will not work on board. I have to use it all day at work. I want a vacation to relax and enjoy the quiet time. I did not like having to pull out the phone to look at the menu, to see what is going on, nor trying to check in with each other. Is there any way to go on vacation without the dam phone?

Trip was amazing, this should be a trip that everyone should go on once in their lifetime

Absolute wonderful time cruising. Tracy Arm Fjord was our favorite. The views were incredible. Ketchikan was our least favorite ONLY because we had only 5 hours to enjoy it and there were 4 other cruise ships at port that day. We will definitely cruise again and always with Marriott Bonvoy and Carnival.

Beautiful scenery. Would cruise there again. Loved having a naturalist on board. Must visit sawyer glacier

My last cruise was over 7 years ago... I had forgotten how great a cruise can be. This was truly wonderful. I had been searching for a good price on an Alaskan cruise for some time and finally found one on the Carnival Splendor. Everything from my steward team to the excursions to the dinner wait staff was top notch. Danu and his team took great care of me and my cabin. They seemed to be invisible at the right times yet always around when I needed something. And I loved the towel animals... that's something I remember from my previous cruise that I really enjoyed. Danu and his team have truly mastered the art of of customer service. I enjoyed him calling me by name too - very professional. And he always had a smile on his face. Carnival's training program must be among the best in the business. You have my deepest appreciation. Andy was my cruise director and he was great. Very funny and a true professional. I enjoyed his announcements and all the humor he provided. He was a true asset to the crew and the Splendor team. What can I say about dinner... WOW, besides the food being absolutley fantastic, the wait staff was truly exceptional. It really amazed me how they worked together to serve hundreds of guests with such a professional attitude in such a timely manner. I never waited for my meals for an inordinatley long time. Leticia, Hernan and Ketut was my team. And they were great. They too called me by name and greeted me each evening with a smile. Another testament to the great training Carnival provides and the emphysis you put on guest service and friendliness. Truly amazing. There were a couple nights I wanted to make "adjustments" to my meal and they were completely accomodating. The only downside I could see was all the weight I gained from all the great food!! ;-) I also had several wonderful waiters and waitresses at all the breakfast services too... I'd like to mention Romie, Ronald, Nyoman and Gusti. They were all fantastic at their jobs and were very accomodating as well. You really have a truly great crew on the Splendor and I enjoyed my time on the ship very much. I already have another cruise booked to the Bahamas in October on the Magic...I'm looking very forward to that!! Thanks again for a really memorable experience.

Cruise pretty good. Cruise worse service on ship I have ever seen. I have been cruising for twenty years on carnival cruise.
