Ship experiences

Food and Dining

1 out of 5

zero star if available. for line with such a good reputation it came as a real shock how bad food was.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

did not participate other than evening entertainment - tried to enter poker tournament but it only had one table open so 9 out of close to 2000 can play.

Entertainment

3 out of 5

guest entertainers are very good. ship singers are good but their production numbers dont do them justice. house band is good but the lounge bands are really really bad.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

service is excellent

Ship Quality

3 out of 5

ship is old but refresh did good job

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5

very good size - balcony lounge chair is comfortable. shower is too small because lay out is very bad. water pressure is very low and temp is luke warm at best.

Ship tip

need to make sure you are really easy with food standards. if food is important dont even think about it.

Yeah when I was on the Millennium I wasn’t impressed with the food. It wasn’t bad, just not great. Since then I’ve been on the Solstice and it was better. What Viking ship have you been on that was comparable in price to this old Celebrity ship? Viking is typically several times the cost.

Sorry about your experience. Don't let one cruise. Dictate how other cruises are with Carnival. All Cruise ships personal, etc.. are definitely not the same
