SHIP OVERVIEW

Carnival Celebration has six Zones — themed areas that bring together incredible experiences and flavor. New flavors you haven’t experienced yet — nobody has! — are heating up at Latitudes™, The Golden Jubilee™ and Emeril’s Bistro 1397™. (Mmm, new Emeril.) Carnival Celebration also marks the return of innovations like BOLT® — the onboard rollercoaster, Bonsai Teppanyaki™, RedFrog® Tiki Bar, Family Feud™ Live, Havana Bar™, Seuss at Sea™, and Playlist Productions™. Perhaps best of all, all the fun you’ll have on Carnival Celebration is powered by clean LNG fuel!

PROS

Great staff. Great activities.

CONS

Some of the drains in the bathrooms smells. Everything else was great!

RECOMMENDED

Yes

My family and I enjoyed our cruise with carnival celebration. All the staff that we came in contact with had great attitudes and were very helpful. I would like to acknowledge Raj, who cleaned our room daily. We loved our interactions with him. Anything we needed, he helped wherever he could. Also, our awesome dining room staff. I have to acknowledge all three of them: Sadok, Fon, Jennifer. On the first night we were late. Sadok took great care of us, never making it seem like he was rushing us although we knew it was a time limit. He explained all the meals and it was a great first time meeting for us. I loved Fon and her interaction with my toddler and he grew to love her too and looked forward to seeing her. Jennifer always make sure we had everything we needed and made our time in Festivale was memorable. She also took the time to explain what was in the meals to ensure we could eat all the ingredients. Thank you all! Side note: I didn’t know about the family harbor and assumed we would have access to board games (like I did on a previous carnival cruise) so it was a little disappointing for my eldest that we didn’t have access to board games.

PROS

A lot of activities for all ages! Food for everyone! No one should go hungry! Housekeeping was great! I cannot think of anything bad on here.

CONS

This was on us as we should have taken the upgrade to a higher deck and I wish I had gotten an oceanview but I was watching costs.

RECOMMENDED

Yes

This was one of my best vacations. We made great memories with our son and just had a great time. Definitely I would recommend this. I think our cruise director was filling in but he did a fantastic job. He brought so much energy to this position. Our room was clean all the time and the ship was always clean.

PROS

Even with the huge size everything was easy to find and where expected.

CONS

The circus show left a lot to be desired.

RECOMMENDED

Yes

This ship was everything you could want in a vacation. Usually on carnival ships i can get turned around finding dining rooms due to only being able to get to them from one side and if not you have to do down, around and back. and other oddities. This ship however was great. Everything was where you expected it to be and easy to find. Lots to do and great people.

PROS

Beautiful new ship, lots of entertainment, great crew, Ocean suite room very spacious

CONS

No bathtub, food was ok, ate in MDR once & it was good, no library

RECOMMENDED

Yes

This was the ship’s inaugural cruise out of Southampton. Easy to catch the shuttle at the airport. I think people in suites were taken on the same bus. When we got to the ship so many lines & people but we were taken pretty close to the check in desk. Room was ready when we embarked. Two main shows most nights in two different locations. Two different venues for comedy clubs most evenings. Our Ocean Suite was a great price & about 10 feet longer than most rooms. But no bathtub! We got free dining also at Italian restaurant & Mexican/Chinese restaurant. Both were ok. Steakhouse was pretty good. Quite a few on demand movies. Weather was about 80 degrees most of the way home. We bought a shuttle to the airport on the way home. Airport was a crowded mess checking in. Al in all a very nice trip. People dressed up for elegant nights, surprisingly.
