Mardi Gras Cruise Reviews - Reviews

We loved the ship, really wished that we could have gone to Grand Turk though.

Overall, a really great experience on a truly awesome ship! This new design is a game-changer for Carnival. Looking forward to the next time on this ship!

I love cruising with Carnival! The room was beautiful, the food was delicious, my room was kept clean.

I’m looking forward to cruising on the Mardi Gras again in the future. Didn’t get the chance to enjoy all the new restaurants.

We loved our vacation and would happily sail on Mardi Gras again. Although we'd try to do different ports.

The ship is huge. Word of advice wear comfortable shoes. Even with using the elevators I still took more than 10,000 steps a day.

Planned for a relaxing cruise and that is exactly what we had.

Great vacation...this was my first official carnival cruise and it far surpassed my expectations! Great Job!

Would love to cruise on the Mardi Gras again. Next time the Western Caribbean itinerary. Enjoyed the variety of restaurants.

From getting onto the ship all the way to disembarking, the Carnival Mardi Gras proved to be one of the best new builds out there. So many “first at sea” experiences and so many great dining options. We didn’t spend any extra money on food yet still had so many options to pick from. I actually never ate at the marketplace buffet because of all the wonderful options. Make sure to do the ropes course and pay the $15 to ride bolt. It’s absolutely worth it.

Cruise was amazing. Staff was great. Food was great. Havana area wasn't as expected. Other Havana areas are bigger. Was a little disappointed.

First and last time on the Mardi Gras. As beautiful as this ship is, I did not like the layout. It felt very crowded even at 75% capacity.

Fun, memorable time for us. Love the new showers in bathroom, the three electrical outlets (all US current) under mirror, and the small nightstands and pin lights for reading by the bed on each side.

Embarkation and disembarkation was a breeze. Mardi Gras is a gorgeous ship. A totally different lay out. On most cruises I have been on everything seems to be in a straight line. Not on the Mardi grasthe hallways have twists and turns. The new sort of layout makes it feel like it's not as large as it really is. Food was good in the MDR. Buffet was your typical buffet food. Rudy's seagrill was worth the price. Everything was delicious. Bonsai sushi and Bonsai Tappayaki are Musts! For fans of rides the Bolt is a must. Loved it. Entertainment on the ship was great. Make sure and stop by and check out Mike Mac in the piano bar. He's the diamond in the rough awesome entertainer.

Great ship and staff. The steak house and Rudy’s were amazing

Overall we had a good time but it wasn’t what we had hoped for.

Had a fantastic, wonderful, relaxing, let’s do it again cruise!

I loved it and didn't want to disembark. The food was delicious and servers treated like family. We'll definitely be back in a year.

Overall Enjoyable experience on the new ship. Will definitely be taking another in the near future 😁

This was the most disappointing experience as Carnival lost one piece of luggage; did not live up to the expectations of a "flagship".
