Ship experiences

Food and Dining

2 out of 5

took too long to get food, service was slow and took too long to find clean tables

Onboard Activities

1 out of 5

very little activities on board, the lack of shows and things to do was very dissatisfied. Only one pool for the entire cruise ship and lack of places to be out in the sun

We have been on this ship before and going again in March. Carnival has something for everybody all the time. Staff is Great at keeping the boat clean, so I call B.S. This boat is huge and Many places to be out in the Sun. People like you, don't need to be on the fun ships anyway, Carnival is Fun.

This is fake because there is two pools on the sunshine.

Step into the bathroom hurts your shins? How tall are you? I dont get that complaint. You just lift your foot up and step into the bathroom. If you have problem doing that, then you probably need an accesible room.

Well, gee. I've never had a bad cruise. Now, I've only sailed on Carnival and I'm not in a position to make a comparison to a different line but, I will say I have not experience any of the things you disliked. I understand that the kitchen is trying feed 3,000 people in a small time frame. I'm going to enjoy the company at my table and relax and talk about the good time I had that day.

I’m sorry you had a bad time! We have sailed on 4 carnival cruises and 1 royal Caribbean and we love Carnival! We felt that Royal Caribbean was lacking the personal touch we felt with carnival. Hopefully you will give them another try in the future!
