Lovetocruisefar Posted December 14, 2017 #1 Share Posted December 14, 2017 I have been trying to hold out, but it looks like Carnival Miracle doesnt get a lotta love on this thread. We are taking the New Years Eve Cruise on December 30th. Has anybody been on the this ship lately? What kinda condition is it in? and what should we expect for New Years eve Thanks all!!

cruzfmtexas Posted December 14, 2017 #2 Share Posted December 14, 2017 We were on the Miracle for a 15-day Hawaii Journey's cruise. It was my first time on a Spirit class ship. I really liked the ship. My last few previous cruises were on the larger Dream class (Breeze and Magic). The Miracle has lots of nooks and crannies, interesting places to sit and relax. The decoration theme is a little old fashioned but I thoroughly enjoyed our two weeks on the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victory.Feb.29,2008. Posted December 14, 2017 #3 Share Posted December 14, 2017 My fave ship...the decor and character!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lcpagejr Posted December 14, 2017 #4 Share Posted December 14, 2017 Ditto... Been on her twice. Favorite ship and layout of all the classes I've sailed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SadieN Posted December 14, 2017 #5 Share Posted December 14, 2017 Sailed on her this year in May, September, and just a few weeks ago. Considering she’s in service 24/7 she’s in good shape. Our cabin in November had a few things not working. (Why couldn’t the previous pax reported these issues?) Everything was fixed within an hour, including having our safe replaced.

kittysnme Posted December 14, 2017 #6 Share Posted December 14, 2017 Sailed on the Miracle last NYE. First time on Spirit Class ship. Absolutely loved the ship. At that time Jamie D was the CD and she really made the NYE celebration a blast. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Computer Nerd Posted December 14, 2017 #7 Share Posted December 14, 2017 I was on her in July. Not anywhere near being my favorite ship due to the lack of a big screen, Guy's burger or Blue Iguana but if those things don't matter to you, she was a fine ship otherwise.

KCMiller Posted December 14, 2017 #8 Share Posted December 14, 2017 Best cruise I ever took was on the Miracle! We had an aft balcony, and between the amazing room and the ease of getting to the adults only deck and pool, it was just a beautiful cruise. Loved the wacky decor, as well!

SkyMaster Posted December 14, 2017 #9 Share Posted December 14, 2017 Spirit Class ships are my favorites, and even though I haven't sailed "Miracle" in a few years, I'd choose her over most any other ship, not in the Spirit Class, in a heartbeat.

pooksma Posted December 14, 2017 #10 Share Posted December 14, 2017 First cruise we took was on Miracle and still my fav. We traveled with 20 friends and family at the same time you are. So many special memories. Ship's decor is very unique, some like it and some don't. We thought it was fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomAceEsq Posted December 14, 2017 #11 Share Posted December 14, 2017 We’re also taking her through the Canal in a few weeks, so this thread came up at the perfect time. Would anyone mind saying where their favorite parts of the ship were? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imouer Posted December 14, 2017 #12 Share Posted December 14, 2017 This is my absolute favorite Carnival ship we loved it on our two-week trip to Hawaii it’s just beautiful Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coevan Posted December 14, 2017 #13 Share Posted December 14, 2017 We were on her in 2006, really liked Spirit class. we are glad they added the Serenity area, We loved it on the Dream class, the pool is a nice plus. As far as NYE, not on the Miracle, Carnival does a great job, they go all out with Champagne, hats, streamers, horns, live band and dancing.

firefighter4u Posted December 14, 2017 #15 Share Posted December 14, 2017 Going on her first week of April, obstructed balcony, hopefully it’s not too obstructed! Lol. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stargate fan Posted December 14, 2017 #16 Share Posted December 14, 2017 (edited) I was on her in July. Not anywhere near being my favorite ship due to the lack of a big screen, Guy's burger or Blue Iguana but if those things don't matter to you, she was a fine ship otherwise. The lack of those three things is one reason Miracle is still my favorite after 26 cruises on 17 different ships.

Taters Posted December 14, 2017 #17 Share Posted December 14, 2017 I absolutely love Miracle. Spirit class is my favorite and as it stands, we probably will only sail on this category of Carnival ships from now on. We've also sailed on Legend a couple of times and my next cruise is on Pride. Other Carnival ships are simply too big. We've recently sailed on 2 HAL cruises because the size of their ships is more to our liking. Have fun on your Carnival Miracle cruise!

jenniferandwhatnot Posted December 14, 2017 #18 Share Posted December 14, 2017 I was on the Miracle for Thanksgiving 2016. I thought it was in decent shape (it had been refurbished somewhat recently), and it was big enough to wander. The decor is loud and gaudy, but fun. Perfect for a 7-day cruise. The bartenders were all great - we found our favorite and kept going back to him all week. Wasn't too impressed with the Steakhouse, but the main dining room was always good. Buffet was crowded a lot, you just have to go at non-peak times. Also I recommend doing Sea Day brunch in the main dining room - it was almost empty when we went! I felt a lot of rocking in the main dining room since it's on the aft of the ship. We had a balcony and it was just perfect. Very clean even though some of the furniture showed some wear. I loved sitting in the atrium with a drink and watching the elevators go up and down. Christmas trees and other holiday decor was already up during Thanksgiving week. We got off at both ports and I don't remember there being any lines to get on or off. The adults-only pool was always packed during the day. The other pools had lots of kids splashing and screaming, but it was over a school holiday, so to be expected. Anyway, let me know if any other specific questions about the ship. Have a great time!

Missileer Posted December 14, 2017 #19 Share Posted December 14, 2017 Love the Miracle and have sailed on her many times. Steakhouse is superb and we love the Chopstix Asian place at noon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karlmonday Posted December 14, 2017 #20 Share Posted December 14, 2017 I was on the Miracle first week of October, great crew, great food, great service. Won money in the casino and enjoyed the shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPad using Forums Look on the deck plan. Most are only obstructed looking down. The ones behind the first half of the first three lifeboats will be almost totally blocked.

seaoats228 Posted December 14, 2017 #22 Share Posted December 14, 2017 We have a girls trip planned for May 13-20, 2017 my sister, niece and her daughter should be fun. We got a cabin with a extended balcony unobstructed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
v3cruiser Posted December 15, 2017 #23 Share Posted December 15, 2017 I have been trying to hold out, but it looks like Carnival Miracle doesnt get a lotta love on this thread. We are taking the New Years Eve Cruise on December 30th. Has anybody been on the this ship lately? What kinda condition is it in? and what should we expect for New Years eve Thanks all!! We were on the Miracle not too long ago. It doesnt have 2.0 nor the hot food room service menu. Food seemed scarce at times. It is showing wear here and there but it is a good ship and we enjoyed our cruise very much. It doesnt seam crowded at all and the mdr teams were great! The steakhouse was very good. Im sure the new years eve cruise will be a blast! Congrats! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
