Carnival Miracle

[DJW8385]

Just booked a 6 night Mexican Rivera on 12/17/17 on the Carnival Miracle. We're a long ways out but wanted to know who else booked this cruise and some info on the Miracle.

You might check the roll call section of this board. We are on the Hawaiian cruise just prior to your Mexican Riviera. (Dec 2-17, 2017) There is a roll call started for the Hawaii cruise.

We love the Miracle! We were on her in August, have another trip planned for March 18, 2017 and was actually looking at Dec. 17, 2017 (want a last ride before we lose her!)

They can take the Miracle away now, we want the Splendor back, a much nicer ship.

But would the WC fill it up?? If Carnival thought it could do better with Splendor on the WC it would be there already.

It will sail completely full as the west coast is hungry for a new ship.

 

Getting tired of the Imagination, Inspiration, and the Miracle.

Splendor can't dock in Kauai though. That would mess up the Hawaii itinerary out of Long Beach, as Kauai is one of the most desirable ports. We love the Miracle.

I have read your awesome review before. Glad you are doing what you promised then to be back on her again. Thanks.

Thank you! I really appreciate that!

I really don't understand how all the talk of Splendor is answering the op's question!

Just off the Miracle on Saturday, I would be happy to answer any questions you may have.

We were on her repositioning cruise from NY to Los Angeles through the Panama Canal a few years ago. We are booked on her for 2 sets of B2B, one this Nov and one Sept 2017, for a total of 42 days. We really love this ship! Very sad to see her go, especially being replaced by the Splendor, which is our absolute least favorite ship. Would be happy to try to answer any questions.

Why is the Splendor your least favorite ship?

Last time we were on her she was run down. The decor is awful. The hallways smelled like sewer, especially on level 2. Every night when our neighbors showered, our shower would back up and flood our bathroom with black sludge that smelled horrible. Guest services were not helpful and we had to wait for plumbers every night (sometimes for 2 hours at which time we could not access our bathroom) who would declare it fixed, only to have it happen again the next night, every night, for a 6 day cruise. I really am not a complainer. In 18 cruises this was the only time we went to guest services to complain about anything, and the guest services manager would just shrug his shoulders.

Odd that the Splendor would have those problems. Isn't the Splendor a newer ship than the Miracle?

I would have taken pictures of this and asked for meeting with hotel director

We just got off the Splendor last month. It's a nice ship and yes it's PINK but it's not overwhelming. You'll get use to the color after the first night. I wrote a review on my cruise if you want to read it.

 

Has it been confirmed that the Splendor is moving back to Los Angeles bc I would love to sail on her again. Also, when the Splendor was in Los Angeles a few years ago, did it do any Alaskan routes?

You are so welcome! I hope you got from my review that it is less about the décor of the ship and more about the people and service! They REALLY love working on the Miracle and for the Captain of her.
