Carnival Cruise Lines - Celebration Reviews

While recently taking the entire family (all 10) on a Carnival Cruise, it was anticipated to be a wonderful family time of sharing, caring, pampering, and touring.  The accommodations were very adequate, the meals were great, but the rest was not to my choosing.  First, the stage shows/reviews were just so-so, and when the comedy team began a complete X-rated program, I had to leave.  I'm not a prude, but there were children in the audience, and this type of "entertainment" was far from entertaining.  It certainly was not considered 'family fun'.

Secondly, all the extra charges were simply outrageous. ...

This was the first time I went on a cruise (my husband too). We had heard good things about Carnival, and they didn't disappoint!!! The check in process was very easy... our room was clean but a bit outdated (as well as the rest of the ship). The food choices and quality were amazing. I also enjoyed the shows---VERY entertaining. Although I enjoyed the places we went (ports), I was disappointed at how quickly we got in and out. I would have liked to spend more time in Key West and Nassau. Also, our snorkeling excursion in Nassau was fantastic; however by the time we got back to the ship...

Carnival has this down pat...they really understand what "cruisers" are looking for...fun and relaxation.

I enjoyed the food, the casino and the entertainment.  People on the ship all seemed to be having a good time which created a very positive atmosphere. The only surprise was the cost of alcoholic drinks and soda's. I also would have liked to pick my own time to dine in the formal dining room. I couldn't make it at my assigned time so lost my opportunity to do that, but that wasn't too big of a...

Put very simply, we (my adult daughter and I) had a very enjoyable experience.  The staff on the ship were all very helpful and courteous.  The cabin was spacious and clean.  The meals were good (not great).  The ship offered a nice selection of activities and entertainment.  We visited Progresso/Merida, Cozumel, and Belize.  We took a tour of some ancient Mayan ruins, spent time relaxing on a beautiful beach, and went cave tubing in the jungle.  The only warning I would offer would be to take several hundred dollar more than you think you will need.  All the photographs, drinks, and excursions...

This cruise was so much fun.  It was a cruise sponsored by another organization that took over the entire ship.  The entertainment was provided by this organization and not the Carnival Cruise LIne.  The staff was amazing and treated us well.  The accommodations were wonderful!
