Where on the ship would you recommend to settle in for several hours of relaxing with a view and a book? I was planning on going back on a p&o again but now that's not going to be an option. I'm suspecting this ship will be what i end up on. Would appreciate your suggestions so i can look them up on the ship map. Cheers

My wife and I have just returned from a 10 day cruise on Carnival Splendor. I think it was the same cruise as this one. New Caledonia was ruled out due to the recent political upheaval. In past times, they would have diverted to Suva to make up the difference-no more of that though. Overall, I would give it an 7/10 value for money but only if you skip the extras and specialty meals (lamb chops $38 (!), a steak over $70, a beer $12-a total rip-off, a cocktail, $18, Chef’s special $155 a person). Beer/alcohol used to be wholesale/duty free once you exited The Heads-not any more! Carnival go to extremes to extract every cent they can from you as quickly as possible but I am not against that. It’s a personal choice. Make sure you take your own tea and coffee like many do. Theirs is battery acid! Carnival want to steer you to their $5 coffee shop. If you want good tea you have to buy a Tetley’s tea bag from them-$4 thanks. Talk about penny pinching! Good fish in the buffet? Expect Basa and Tilapia-both at the bottom of the taste scale. Not even a salt water fish! Ham, Corned beef in the buffet? No way-Devon! Butter? No. Some creamy concoction instead which tastes nothing like butter. Live music and bands have been downgraded to backing tapes in the auditorium. That said. Very enjoyable but imbibe in the complimentary fare which is quite good. The move to 'specialty everything' is a con job. $75 for a steak is just crazy. We cruise regularly and probably would have spent $120-$150 on grog if the prices were fair. We are reasonably well off but I refuse to be ripped off. It is the principle so they got Zilch out of us for drinks. They must have some weird bean counters at Carnival/P and O. They probably get their grog wholesale and duty free anyway. I noticed hundreds of people in the auditorium-mostly drinking water! Photographs will cost you a fortune. We always tip but on my next cruise I am thinking of handing letters to the Purser, Head of Housekeeping and the Maître D explaining we are not tipping anymore but using our tips for things that used to be complimentary but now they charge extra for….. And the staff-Fantastic!

Have to agree about the upsell. Lots of optional extras. We didn’t feel the need to upgrade generally but really wanted to try out the Steakhouse otherwise we would been quite happy with the restaurant food. Drinks did feel pricey. The bottomless Bubbles package was worth it as an extra just because of how much alcohol we avoiding buying!!!

My mums on there. Cold food apparently Not a big selection foodwise Got a baked potato for breakfast Cold shower in the morning- working on the pipe apparently. Had to get the drinks package because other room-mate wanted the drinks package, it go's to the room not the person. Doesn't make any sense. 30 people got off at Brisbane and told them to get f.ed

As someone who's 16 (going to be 17 by the time of the cruise), I'm so glad they have options! I remember I went on a carnival cruise back in 2017 or so and they had no options for people between the ages of 15-17, was seriously worried about that

Was the $118 thermal pass just for the length of the cruise, or just a day? I'm on the Splendor later this year and am wondering if booking before departure is cheaper than on board. Thanks for the detailed video 👍

That was the price per person for the length of the cruise - we bought it from the spa in day 1 which was discounted, but I don’t know what the price was if you bought it advance I’m afraid! Hope you have a blast!!

I am glad that the Splendor which is now older style Carnival still measured up to be a good value vacation you enjoyed...thanks for your delightful candid review...sounds like a nice thing to do even if taking a longer land visit to Aussie land to get some sea time and some difference in perspective and places to visit.

We booked on Carnival Splendor in May 2019 for a Mexican Riviera cruise before the ship was sent to Singapore and Australia. We had plans to take the repositioning cruise but family events prevented us from doing so. That was our first cruise in 28 years after a disastrous cruise on Costa. We were surprised at how great the food was and the service was excellent. We liked the great number of INCLUDED food options. That Indian place was the best that we had. Our only complaint was that the entertainment looked like it was put together for a frat boy audience. The cruise staff loved to use the f-bomb and it was not our taste. We have not done a Carnival cruise since 2019 but we have an 8 day Caribbean cruise scheduled on the Carnival Magic in March. Since our last cruise on Carnival, we have tried five other lines. We find HAL, Princess, and Celebrity to be more to our taste. However, we rate Carnival over Royal Caribbean and NCL.
