Carnival Miracle Reviews

Cabin attendant Made: Excellent Waiters: I Gede (a future Team leader), & his team ***** Princess Mar Ann & Sang Nicole**** Hope (Security) for a special mention in successfully resolving an adjoining cabin noise issue.

The ship feels a little dated in decor. The food choice was limited and buffet selection poor with limited opening times. The entertainment was mostly piano bars with a couple of good shows in the theatre. A good point you never queued for the lift or walked far to find a sun bed. The debarkation was swift and smooth. Would I cruise with carnival again, very doubtful.

It was wonderful, the ship is beautiful. The people are lovely. I love the comedy night, the Showtime, the food, the whole experience was amazing… obviously I’ve got to go to Ireland and the Isle of Man where I really wanted to go… The only issue due to the weather was we couldn’t go to Liverpool, so we was out at sea but the whole cruise was amazing.

Good food, good entertainment, good staff. Nice ship

Very American

The ship hasn't had a refresh for nine years, which is evident at first. But is so clean it really doesn't matter. The decor is dated but unusual and very clean. The entertainment is excellent 👌 with the added bonus of a comedy club which had five different comedians over our twelve nights with two or three performers every night. The regular dancers had four different shows all excellent. We had two guest singers and magicians all of whom were very good, on the down side, the food was bland and barely warm. There were no tea or coffee making facilities in the cabins and the drinks, sure excursions and hidden extras were very expensive as were the speciality restaurants

We loved the places we visited, we didn't take any excursions, we just strolled about. On board was extremely noisy and hectic all the time. We didn't expect so much obsession with gaming and the constant noise. That part was not good. Food was repetitive and very much catering to US tastes. The crew were lovely, helpful, personally attentive. The ship was clean and our cabin was great. Decor on the ship is weird and overly elaborate.

Honestly a great ship in general. The Embarkation/Disembarkation was so so easy. The Ship was very funky and clean. The Staff were spot on and the entertainment was really good. The Food was good but limited choices and to much of a similar thing though the meats IE Steaks were cooked really well. The reason for only 4 stars was the choice of ports. Obviously we were aware of our destinations but IE Le Verdon was really rubbish. Also when we arrived in La Corona there was a triathlon on and we had to navigate many barriers to get to places. We should of been warned. Would i go on a Carnival cruise again. Definitely for the Staff and the quirkiness of the Ship.

Excellent food lovely friendly ship

One of carnivals smaller ships. we loved the quirky decor. loved loved loved "Gatesby's garden" mad hatter theatre. main dining room was quirky but didnt care much for the food. cooked to order but still arrived barely warm. we only ate there twice. buffet on deck 9 served very similar food to the MDR. aimed at Americans (well it is an American ship) despite sailing around Europe. the food wasnt the best, it often looked liked it had been cooked hours before and kept warm so sometime it looked like it lacked any moisture. always a great selection of desserts - you have to try the chocolate chip cookies - they just melt in your mouth. The pizza bar - cooks fresh to order - they were delicious. guys burger on the lido deck - delicious - again not piping hot, but very tasty. drinks included without paying extra are - coffee - tastes awful - (Take your own coffee power as they have hot water for tea) hot chocolate - very nice. water - again ok, and lemonade - (to us brits - that is fresh lemonade not the fizzy pop kind) nice as long as they get the sugar ration sorted - otherwise it makes your eyes squint when you drink it. these drinks are freely available in the buffets and in the middle pool section on the lido deck. In the morning there is apple juice and orange juice instead of lemonade - the apple juice was so good. Staff worked endlessly to clear everything away promptly from tables. the whole ship was kept clean. Gary the cruise director had the most amazing infectious personality and energy. Three pools on the ship. all on deck 9. The serenity deck (for over 21's) was lovely. very small pool and hot tub, lido deck (in the middle) has a roof that can open or close. so if the weather isn't the best you still have somewhere to go. The pool in this section is HEATED, we didn't find that bit out until the last day. It is also salt water. if you need to smoke or vape - there are four areas -not clearly indicated anywhere. they are on the outside lido deck on deck 9. just one side of the deck (the side where the red rum bar is) deck 10 on the same side and deck 3. all towards the front of the ship. you can also smoke in the casino as long as you are sitting down and playing the machines you can not smoke or vape anywhere if the are refuelling the boat in port. take time to talk to the staff - they are lovely and have some wonderful stories to tell you. make sure you check your account every day for charges. despite prepaying our tips - carnival still put them on our account. so a trip down to guest services was needed to get it rectified.
