I always love cruise but this Horizon was the worst cruise ever, food not good. very disappointed , look like a hunger games with the food , Meridian restaurant took forever to served our meal literally like 2 hour. Never again Carnival no organization and I only see once the cruise director .Only I can said the bar (alchemy) was good other than that I was. waiting to get out of this ship,

First, I am a soon to be platinum cruiser and have cruised many Carnival Cruises. I traveled with a large group of family members of all ages and disabilities/handicaps. This cruise was by far the worst experience ever! It all started at the Miami Cruise Port. The staff was rude and not friendly at all. Once inside, I was hoping for a more welcoming staff but no. Once on the ship, the rudeness and

After the short cruise a month prior I wasn’t sure how this cruise was going to go however thankfully, it went wonderful! Embarkation was quick and painless, Cabin was spacious, clean, and very well taken care of. Food was great. Public areas could benefit from more seating. Our food servers were the absolute best! Shows and entertainment were great and we had zero issues with it being family

old ship, cabins are too small, entertainment horrible and food at the buffet only 7 choices if plates, two if bread and 5 of Salad. I could never eat at the buffet the environment was not the best class. Never again in any carnival cruises. Public bathroom was dirty, Horrible decoration overall. I have cruise 10 times but never like this cruise. Never again I paid $1,716.00 per person and isn’t

I'm a huge fan of cruises and have always tried my best to get friends to try it. This might have changed that. This cruise a pathetically disorganized. Both boarding and disembarking were an inefficient nightmare compared to every other cruise I've taken including other Carnival cruises. The food with very few exceptions was abysmal. I alway tell people I've never had a bad meal on a cruise ship.

Just returned from our 6 night Western Caribbean Cruise last night on Carnival Horizon. Wanted to share my thoughts while still fresh. Hope this will help anyone still trying to decide on a cruise line to use. My wife and I were originally going to Alaska, with our 20 something year old children, to celebrate our 25th anniversary. A change of plans required a switch to a Caribbean cruise instead.

First time being on Carnival since 2001, I was very surprised how Carnival is so much better.Pro: 1) Embarkation: Although, I have purchased Fast2Fun package, even without it it would have been quicker than NCL, MSC. Quick line to cruise check in and it took as 5 min vs last NCL in Apr 2023 took 30 min for check in that also had picture preload. Walked up to security, virtually no line and

If not for the destinations and the beautiful views, this would have been a very disappointing cruise. We had a balcony room and we spent a lot of time enjoying the views. We had ordered the wine package and enjoyed our drinks watching the ocean from our balcony. Now the negative, the food was horrible and so was the service. The MDR food tasted stale and as if it was plated and left under a

Started off fine with good embarkation and all seemed well. The casino staff were the least friendly & disorganized of my sailings over the past 20 plus years. They host were not friendly nor competent at any task required and made for a terrible impression. The casino drinks were served with very wet ice and usually by the time a server delivered the drinks they all the ice had melted to be
