SHIP OVERVIEW

If you're looking for a vacation at sea that's as colorful as the décor of the cruise ship taking you there, an entire palette of fun activities and hot spots awaits aboard Carnival Glory. Speaking of colorful personalities, you'll enjoy a variety of stand-up comedians at The Punchliner Comedy Club™. Picture yourself grabbing a drink at the open-air RedFrog Rum Bar® or BlueIguana Tequila Bar™... whichever color or spirit's more your style. Represent your favorite team's colors and enjoy a round or two at the SkyBox™ Sports Bar. Enjoy a show on the stage at Playlist Productions™, complete with singing and dancing, plus video screens that bring these productions an extra splash of color. Speaking of splash, at Carnival WaterWorks™ the fun flows down the winding curves of the classic Twister and all-new AquaTunnel waterslide — plus twin racing slides and a giant tipping bucket — for countless gallons of fun. And if a picture paints a thousand words, imagine the millions flying off the big screen during a film under the stars at Dive-In Movies. Yes, it's Hollywood meets islands for a date night done right.

Great Destinations, Nice People on Board, Outstanding Crew

JANUARY

Star Star Star Star Star

PROS

The people on board & especially the crew members who were amazing. Also, Grand caymen Island.

CONS

The food is just so-so. The entertainment was worth a pass.

RECOMMENDED

No

I'd heard bad things about rowdy behavior on Carnival cruises but I never encountered any of that. Everyone I met was friendly & well mannered. No drunks. The ship's decor looks like the inside of a pinball machine. It really needs updating & more outlets to recharge your phone. There are virtually no places to plug in your phone outside of the staterooms & even there I could only see one near the TV.

Fall Cruise

OCTOBER

Star Star Star Star Star

PROS

Great Service

CONS

Buffet had little variety

RECOMMENDED

Yes

Compared to the 2 other cruises we have taken the buffet was a little sparse. However the restaurant dining was very good. I would recommend the Steak House and the Chef's table. Both of these require additional expense, but we felt it was well worth it. Our steward = Raul was awesome. I explained that we liked to sleep late on days at sea, he offered to just do turn down service and that way he would not bother us. Very economical and enjoyable

AUGUST

Star Star Star Star Star

PROS

Loved our room assignment. We were close to most things

CONS

Ship too small and food quality below normal Carnival standards.

RECOMMENDED

No

Staff was excellent as usual but very disappointed in the ship’s size. There was no future cruise station on board. Enjoyed the Carnival Hub experience. Activities were less than frequent than usual especially the trivia activities.

MARCH

Star Star Star Star Star

PROS

Fun activities

CONS

Bars were slow sometimes, there was a giveaway in the casino the last night but the winner worked for carnival so I just overheard that nobody really won the free cruise they were giving away. I was annoyed because they made a big deal about the giveaway and I stayed at the casino just for the chance to win.

RECOMMENDED

Yes

It was our first cruise and we will definitely be back.

PROS

Great staff, well run

CONS

2 tendered ports

RECOMMENDED

Yes

I’m a complainer (or a perfectionist as I like call it) but I really don’t have anything to complain about. The staff was great, particularly our waitress, Wai Hinh, who had the best personality. Along with Martin and Herkut we had wonderful dinners. If you’re a foodie, splurge on the chef’s table.
