This is was my 11th Carnival Cruise, and by far this was the absolute worst in the fleet, more on that shortly. Positives Bonifacio our room attendant was/is the best I've seen for Carnival. The specialty Italian restaurant was good. Arya in Southern Nights restaurant was good. Trust the food at Blue Iguana, and Guys Burger place Negatives and there were many. -Rico was by far the worst Cruise Director in the 25 plus cruises I've been on. - Food allergy which has not been an issue with informing previous cruises was a major issue. MaitreD and kitchen ignored. (Member of party lost weight on a cruise, who does that) - Lines were atrocious sometimes hour long - Boat is undermanned and understaffed - Casino staff was absolutely nasty to people - Food was not edible some days in a whole - The service was horrible at Southern Nights restaurant - Kids ran rampant at slide, Basketball court, and golf course. Absolutely zero security, with often times gangs of kids going after smaller kids. - Customer service desk was worst in Carnival. - Nightly entertainment was worst in Carnival. - Not enough seating on decks during days at sea, both sides of boat and multiple decks all full. People were resting in middle of decks, on stairs and more. - Loopy (Yes that's her name) is the worst Bingo host in the fleet. In the end this cruise was so bad end to end, that I'm considering never using Carnival again. Avoid this ship like the plague, it's terrible…

The workers were great. The person that took care of the room did an excellent job. The dining staff was awesome. The excursion desk lady went beyond the call of duty to take care of me. Mark Anthony (entertainer) was amazing. The comedians were funny. The shows were similar and some other variety show would have been nice.…

We enjoyed a family cruise on the Carnival Magic. There were 13 of us ages 7 - 70 and everyone had a great time. A pleasant surprise was that our teen age cruisers really enjoyed the teen club. They liked the chaperones and had fun meeting and hanging out with the other teen cruisers. The younger cruisers had a great time attending Camp Ocean. The ship was clean but in need of a bit of new paint. Food was good and plentiful. (Except they no longer serve mushrooms at Guy Burgers) The best of the cruise was the crew, everyone we were in contact with was very pleasant and friendly, especially our serving crew in the dining room. They made this a fun and memorable trip. The worse of the cruise was the entertainment, or should I say lack of it. There was only one stage show with no stage theme or costumes for the dancers. Boring, a real dissapointment as shows are a part of the cruise we look forward to.…

I'm a frequent Carnival cruiser and I often rave about the line. Not the case on my most recent cruise. There was only one Playlist show and we were unimpressed by the second set of comedians. The internet was shoddy. The air conditioning in the cabin was not great. The mattress was saggy.…
