Carnival Cruises - Carnival Miracle Reviews

Last Year Cruise MSC was much better than Carvival.

Carnival Cruise Lines was good and we got what we paid for. It just didn't have the WOW factor we were looking for.

This was our first Carnival cruise (Miracle) and the first from NYC. We usually cruise from Boston or Florida on NCL ships. We did not like this Carnival ship because the staff were difficult to understand when they spoke, music in the shows was much too loud, and the corridors were not straight. Yes, ships have an international crew, but NCL makes sure all have excellent use of English and speak clearly. Their corridors are not zig-zagging. I feel sorry for passengers who are in wheel-chairs and have to navigate all of the corners. Also, the dining room was open for only dinner and brunch (same menu everyday!) - breakfast and lunch were buffets with very calorie- and cholesterol-laden dishes. Carnival did not offer many lactose-free foods - a must for those of us who are lactose-intolerant. We know that we must forego the many gorgeous desserts, but offering something besides fruit would be nice. Rice or soy-based frozen desserts and Sorbets (not sherbet) are a good alternative to ice cream.

This is our second Cruise (Carnival Miracle) same month same date just 2010...last year we paid less for the same room and have better quality service and entertainment.

Great ship with rooms bigger than expected. Service was exceptional and I would book again with Carnival.

My kids got lice from the beds/ pillows. They had no activities for most of the day. You were just floating in the Ocean for a miserable week. One of the stops on the cruise was cancelled. The shore excursions were not properly scheduled and had to be cancelled so the few days we had to escape from the drudgery of the ship were messed up as well. We don't expect we'll be taking a cruise in our lifetime or even our children would ever take a cruise after the experience we had.

Had a great time
