an exceptionally, superb cruise!!! by
Nadine M. from Nassau, Bahamas Sailing date: Sep 2012Pros: entertainment - Caribbean night on the Lido deck was AWESOME!! this was my first cruise and i'm already planning another for 2013. The entire cruise was most memorable and exciting. the entertainment team did an excellent job at ensuring that the entertainment catered to all audiences.
I was most impressed with the cleanliness, the staff dedication to ensuring that the ship remained clean at all times was commendable. they staff were courteous, helpful and so much fun.
I truly understand why its called "The fun Ship". I highly recommend cruising with this particular line anytime. I've already began making plans for future cruise 2013 here i come.. Ship Quality

  A good experience by
Katherine K from Seattle, WA Sailing date: Sep 2012Pros: Food was wonderful and staff was very friendly! Cons: Back of the ship had a terrible smell The ship was beautifully built, and there are so many fun things to do aboard. There was never a dull moment because there are always activities going on during the day. Our light in our room went out and it wasn't fixed for 2 days so the bulb kept blinking. The back of the ship had a terrible smell, like sewage. I thought maybe it would go away, but it was the entire duration of the trip. Ship QualityBad smell at entire rear end of the ship. Also, the water stopped in the women's restroom up on the Lido deck outside the buffet. Dining/FoodAmazing food with plenty of options! Stateroom QualityWell kept Ship Staff QualityVery friendly and helpful Entertainment & Activities

Carnival Liberty by
Vincent D from Centennial, CO Sailing date: Sep 2012Pros: Grand Cayman Cons: Price of Alcohol It was a beautiful ship and the staff was amazing! We felt like royalty. Ship Quality
Dining/FoodEverything was great! So much food, way more than you could ask for. The only ting we had a complaint about was the food for the dinners was a bit low quality it seemed. Stateroom QualityEverything was great. Bed could have been more comfortable and tv could have been bigger. Ship Staff QualityWe felt like royalty. They did everything we asked and then some and never called us anything but our name. It was incredible! Entertainment & ActivitiesPlenty of stuff to do!! 3 out of 3 people found this review helpful.

lots of fun by
carr,j and gibson, s from leesburg, fl Sailing date: Sep 2012Pros: half moon cay and power scuba at st. john's bay Cons: excruciating lond wait in sun in Miami to board the ship Overall a fun trip. We were disapointed that there were only 5 shows on 7 nite cruise. To us the best musical group was placed in the smoking casino and reduced the amount of time we could stand to dance. Other non-smoking lounges had little or no musical groups to dance to. Food was excellent and plentiful. Enjoyed the balcony room. Service was as expected- great. All of the tours we went on were as advertised. Could have used more time in each of the 4 ports we visited. Still overall a wonderful trip. Ship QualityCleanliness was excellent. Layout was easy to learn Dining/FoodWe happy with quality and quantity. Stateroom QualityHad a balcony room that had enough room for the time we spent in it. Enjoyed the balcony view. Room was kept clean and orderly by the staff. Ship Staff Qualitystaff could not do enough for you. Entertainment & Activitiescruise director Karl was a ball of energy. Tough not to have fun with him. 2 out of 2 people found this review helpful.

A Fabulous Cruise by
Tracy F from PA Sailing date: Aug 2012Pros: The professional shows every night, wonderful musicians, wonderful dancers, all you can eat, loved the host, loved visiting the Islands, the beach at Half Moon Cay was wonderful!! The shore excursions were fabulous. Cons: the powdered eggs for breakfast, All the cakes and were not good at all, they were not moist, and lacked taste, no sweetness, the ice cream was terrible, there should be a better way to board and leave the ship when there are 3000 people present. There should be a real convience store. I loved the shows, very professional. We arrived on time to the locations. Loved the Excursions. Ship Quality
Dining/FoodThere should not be powdered eggs for breakfast. The cakes and danishes did not taste good at all. They were not moist, lacked sweetness, and flavor. Stateroom Quality

Good, but not great by
A Traveler from Miami Sailing date: Jul 2012Pros: Pleasant and efficient crew Cons: Long lines everywhere, high prices for drinks considering how much you are paying to be on the ship Ship is well designed and nicely decorated. Ship Quality
Dining/FoodFood was good, especially dinner in the main dining room. Lunch was another matter as there were long lines for everything except the hamburgers, which fortunatley were great. Never did get to try the wok as there were long lines at all times and the line moved very slowly. Stateroom Quality
Ship Staff QualityStaff was generally quite nice, but overworked. Entertainment & ActivitiesComedy was very good. Music varied from poor to good. Cruise director was annoying. 2 out of 2 people found this review helpful.

First time cruising and it was Awesome! by
Isamar R. from Boston, MA Sailing date: Jul 2012Pros: Food/Service/Shows Cons: Basketball court too small This was my first time cruising and I did not know what to expect... The staff was absolutely great; very friendly, and they work really hard! The rooms were very clean, a lot of storage space. The food was great!!!!!! A lot of items to choose from.

Great employees & shows. Some Headaches by
Ken P from columbus, ohio Sailing date: May 2012Pros: The waiters were amazing and the food was great Cons: The insanely long lines to get on and/or off the boat The people working on the ship are always working hard to make sure you have a great time. The shows were great. The food was very good. The only complaints are how long it takes to get people on and off the boat. Oh yeah, the drink prices are painfull. People would drink a lot more if the prices were more reasonable Ship Quality

Good, but not great by
V. B. from Maine Sailing date: Apr 2012Pros: Spending time with the friends who we travel with Cons: Carnival has cut down on a lot of the "extras" that use to be part of their cruse appeal. There was hardly anything to do after 10:00pm. Limited music and hardly any place that offered nighttime entertainment such as dancing. THe food was good, but not wonderful. Overall, I feel that Carnival has cut way down on giving guest the dream vacation of cruising. I have been on multiple Carnival and competor cruises and I alwasy go back to Carnival. I am not sure I will continue to do that as I viewed this trip to be one of the most boring I have ever had. Nothing to do after 10:00 pm for adults. No dance clubs for adults and limited opportunities to dance. The food was good but not wonderful. Staff were not as friendly as I am use to. If I had never been on another cruise, I think this would have been great, but I have been on multiple cruises and found this one to be less than I hoped for or expected. The beds were not comfortable and our mattress had certainly seen better days. Our water in the shower was cold everyday except the last day and no matter how much we tried to set the dial, we only got luke warm to cold water. I left the boat disappointed with this cruise compared to all of our other ones. Ship QualityTHe bathrooms in some of the public areas were out of toilet paper and did not seem to get the attention they needed. Dining/FoodNot as good as they have been in the past. Stateroom QualityOur beds needed new mattresses as ours had seen better days. Ship Staff QualityWe never saw our attendant. Entertainment & ActivitiesHardly any night life for adults other than gambling. 3 out of 3 people found this review helpful.
