FloridaMommyof3 Posted November 26, 2016 #1 Share Posted November 26, 2016 Just got home a bit ago from a 6 day on the Conquest. We had a nice time - the ship was very clean and the crew was (for the most part) really very nice. My room steward never introduced himself to me, which was a first. The made a towel animal just 2 out of the 6 days, which was also a first, but obviously not a big deal although my son loves them. Guy's Burgers - YUMMY!!!! We ate in the MDR all but one day, and the food was always quite good. I let my 2 sons order the steakhouse selection off the menu on the last night, and although it was good, it wasn't worth it (IMHO). The flat iron steak was just as tasty and of course no extra $$. In Jamaica we did the bobsled and ziplining - really, really fun! The bobsled was thrilling and scary and crazy. In Grand Cayman I had booked a non-Carnival excursion to go to the Stingrays, but unfortunately due to very windy weather all stingray excursions were cancelled :( - bummer. In Cozumel we did a Mayan tour and thoroughly enjoyed it. I did bring home every Fun Times, so if anyone is taking this cruise and wants to know what's happening daily, when I get to work on Monday I can scan and email them to you.

The flat iron steak is the worst cut of meat and the steak house steaks are FAR superior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

etwright Posted November 27, 2016 #8 Share Posted November 27, 2016 We got off the Vista in August and thought it was very weird that we did not meet our steward until about the 3rd day into cruise. Every other cruise, they usually make it a point to introduce themselves the first day. He was an awesome steward and did a fantastic job with the room, but we found this odd.

FloridaMommyof3 Posted November 27, 2016 Author #9 Share Posted November 27, 2016 The flat iron steak is the worst cut of meat and the steak house steaks are FAR superior. I'm just saying this was MY experience on this cruise and with these particular steaks. The flat iron steaks on this cruise were MUCH better then the flat iron on the Victory cruise I was on in July. And like I said about the upcharge for this cruise and this steak, it was not worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamericannn Posted November 27, 2016 #10 Share Posted November 27, 2016 No Serenity area just an adults only pool. Sent from my iPhone using Forums I thought the conquest had the same layout as Glory. I'm surprised they do not have a serenity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FloridaMommyof3 Posted November 27, 2016 Author #11 Share Posted November 27, 2016 They have the adults only pool, and even though the cruise was totally filled with children that deck was very quiet. They enforced the "no kids in the pool" rule. So technically even though kids were allowed on that deck, there weren't many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HawkIVette Posted November 29, 2016 #13 Share Posted November 29, 2016 Will be on the Conquest in 6 days, and though this is my 3rd time on Conquest, I really still enjoy the Conquest Class ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deanaboy Posted November 29, 2016 #14 Share Posted November 29, 2016 My family and I will be boarding the Conquest in March 2017, Spring Break Cruise. I just got off the Valor on a short cruise. My steward never identified himself to me. That was a first for me after 20 plus cruising on Carnival. It wasn't a biggie since the cruise was less than five days. However, I agree with you about the Flat iron steak, I had both steaks, and my flat iron beat the Specialty Restaurant steak hands downs. Now, I will order at least one flat iron steak during the night they serve shrimps. Never again will I pay Specialty restaurant price for a steak dinner. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And when I did the "after cruise survey", I made a note of that in my comments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pellaz Posted December 2, 2016 #17 Share Posted December 2, 2016 (edited) Did you try the new BBQ place on Deck 10 or the Seafood Corner aft on Deck 9? Both were brand-new when we sailed on Conquest in October and I really liked the BBQ place. It's really easy to like something that's free/included. :) Edited December 2, 2016 by Pellaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's really easy to like something that's free/included. :) We didn't do either, unfortunately, although we did walk upstairs to see the BBQ setting which was very nice. My kids didn't see anything that appealed to them so we went back to Guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
