Carnival Cruise Reviews (2024 UPDATED): Ratings of Carnival Cruise Line (2024)

3.8

I'm a regular guy, married with a full time job and 2 kids. Not a high roller or a cruise expert. I had certain expectations for this cruise and they were met. I'm well aware Carnival is not the Ritz-Carlton. In the end we had a nice weekend away from home for a reasonable price on a satisfactory ship. If these are your expectations, you'll be pleased. If you're expecting 5 star luxury with all

I enjoyed my vacation on the Conquest! The rooms were spacious, staff friendly and Knowledgeable. Food was so-so . The entertainment was good! My only problem was we were unable to get any pool time because kids were I. Them all day sun up to sun down! There were a lot of people I saw struggle to get around the ship . When we ported it was on a Sunday . We were so excited to do some shopping but

Wow. I will NEVER go on another cruise after this experience. Where do I start? First of all, we bought the Cheers package. They make it VERY difficult to even get a co*cktail. I don’t even think I got my money’s worth. The food was complete crap. Zero healthy options and the “bar type food, AND more so called elegant dining was horrible. I would at least like to enjoy fattening food if that is

Cruise staff is almost always pleasant when boarding but boy oh boy after your cruise is over, SOME staff can be very unprofessional and rude. Talking to adults in mean and inappropriate ways. You’ve received my money, my cruise is over now get off! That’s how I’m made to feel. The menu options do not include vegan or vegetarian options. Every day there three or four different meats and not

My wife and I recently embarked on our first cruise aboard the Carnival ship Firenze, and our incredible experience blew us away. From the exceptional service provided by the fantastic crew to the delicious dining options at restaurants like Bonsai Teppanyaki and Fahrenheit 555, every moment on board was truly memorable. Chef Roland from Bonsai Teppanyaki was excellent and had us laughing nonstop

We cruise often, in fact, we went on 2 cruises just last year so I speak from experience when I say the Carnival Glory was by far the most disappointing. We have never encountered having to wait in extremely long lines for EVERYTHING. There was already a lack of variety of food, and definitely a lack of quality food, but to have to wait for what was available to choose from was completely

Not happy with this cruise! Not for people with families. Between the buffet food, the lack of “dress code” and the raunchy dance off in front of children was a big disappointment. No great food choices for kids as well. The pizza was awful. Guy’s offered the best in food choices on the lido deck. Couldn’t believe how much wasted food we saw on the tables. We did enjoy our trip over to Bimini &

Ship is pretty old and small. We had 17 people in a hot tub at one time. If you were on the 1st or 2nd floor and your room is in the middle of the ship you will smell sewage after the 2nd day. Also there was a cafeteria over my room and would wake me and my family up everyday at 4 am clanging and banging. They only served bacon 3 days on the cruise. They would also randomly just not open half of

Loved the people loved the entertainment I would definitely go on this ship again. There was a band that played every night that myself and the people I cruised with thought were awesome, I would come back just to watch the play. I can't remember their name but it was two women and two men. I wish I remember their name so I could follow them. Overall A great experience. I will definitely have to

First, the positives, the cabin was clean and relatively well laid out for 2 adults, a child, and an 11 month old. The food was also better than we had expected it to be. The breakfast at the lido deck buffet had excellent omelets from the omelet station and the fruit and other offerings were fairly tasty as well. Some people way want it noted that bacon was not available every day, it
