It was cheap and the dates were good for our Grandsons 18th birthday celebration. We went Dec 18-23 2023 just arrived at port to see all the ruined flooded cars from the cruise before us such a tragedy! First of all our cruise was delayed 5 hours it took us from 530 to 10pm to board the ship. All they gave us was 25.00 a piece cruise credit for our delay! Next there were so many kids and their ...

Cruise director is rude, roofs leak, AC is terrible. Much of the wait staff is rude and cuts you off when walking in common areas. Wifi is terrible do not waste your money, visible rust in metal surfaces, the only guys i enjoy interacting with are the state room attendants. Food is terrible. As a customer that has used carnival for their cruises exclusively this is the worst experience i’ve ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 30s

We chose this cruise because of its affordability and the amount of good things I have heard about it. WRONG! Maybe my standards are higher than others but this trip was not good. The positive things were the employees were always nice. Though most could not speak or understand English. I thought this a bit odd as we traveled out of Charleston, SC and most if not all guest spoke English. The best ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 50s

This was the my first cruise and it was the worst experience that I have ever had... the rooms were flooded out and there was a mold smell/musty smell and the food was awful. They help me to my room when we first got on but didn't help at all when we got ready to go and I am disabled and needed help. My skin was irritated by something inside of the room . When I came home i had bit marks and ...

Aging ship and bad food

My significant other chose this cruise as a family and friends vacation. The smoothest part was leaving the ship on the last day, but that was just the best luck we had the whole trip. She’s much more of an avid cruiser than me. It’s been 10+ years since my last cruise. The food was worse than hospital food-all of the food-(and I know this because I work in a hospital). It’s very obvious the ship ...

6-10 Cruises • Age 70s

We were able to leave from Charleston which is close to where we live. The main dining room food was very poor even though my husband and I are not fussy eaters. The best piece of meat I had the whole cruise was a steak I paid an extra $25 for. "Specialty"restaurants were a joke. They were the same restaurants we ate in during the day. Then they put tablecloths on the tables, charged you ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 30s

This was my very first cruise and most definitely will be my last! This experience was horrible. the ship is old & outdated! The food was horrible & all began to taste & smell the same. The selection was even piss poor in both the formal dining area & also the lido marketplace. The cabins & water sources smelled like recycled urine & feces! I didn't pay for the drink package but wish i did after ...

Having been on multiple lines, I was looking forward to being back on Carnival. This was for a 4 night out of Charleston, SC. Unfortunately, Carnival disappointed on multiple levels. I knew going in that this was an older ship but it had been refurbished in 2012 and I was hoping that the last 2 years would have given Carnival time to fix things on this ship when getting it back for ...
