Review summary

What a giant waste of time and money. We will never go on another cruise even if were paid to go. Disgusting, retched smells, adults acting like true idiots, with tiny pools and subpar food.

you either like cruising or you don't.

I'm wondering why so many of you are critiquing her comment.

If she didn't like it she didn't like it. Our first cruise was also very disappointing. Though I will admit my review was a bit more detailed.

It's so amazing people can be on the exact same cruise ship and have the best time ever and others complain about everything. I wonder if that's a pattern in their own personal life (unhappy complainers) I'm getting ready to go on my 16th Carnival Cruise and I have never had a bad cruise yet. Sure, we have skip a port before, another cruise was cut short due to engine problems. it's pour rain and was freezing cold when it should of been hot. And I've lost money in the casino. But Never did I let it ruin my entire cruise. It all start with a healthy and happy mind set. Relax people your on vacation.. You make it what it is.

The pool on the Lido deck smelled like sewer. The bathrooms were disgusting and the food on the lido deck was a waste of calories. Took entirely too long to get a drink from the bars. Oh and we got back on the 5th. We were only in Cozumel for 5 hours due to medical emergency. Carnival made no effort to compensate us for this inconvenience! Next time I'll sail with a much nicer company.

some people aren't happy unless they are complaining and putting others down to build themselves up.

most people who post a bad review are the ones who let their expectations exceed what comes from the wallet.

So if you cruised from the 5-10th what made you wait so long to leave a bad review? It was our first cruise and we thought it was amazing. The food in the dining room each night was wonderful and our room steward and dining room waiter were AMAZING! Yes, there are a few adults who partied way to much but that didn't ruin my time. Just added to my entertainment. Speaking of entertainment there was plenty to do!
