Pros and cons

May

Pros: Easy to get on the ship

Cons: The food in the dining room was very small portions. After we ate we went to the buffet to get filled up.

Recommended: No

There was a lot of noisy people. There was a fight on our floor. Getting off the ship wasn’t too bad. I’m done with Carnival. They use to have a great reputation but it has gone downhill.

Carnival Horizon Southern Caribbean

January

Pros: Smaller crowds, good burgers and pizza

Cons: Same food at buffet every morning. Disembarking process was out of control

Recommended: Yes

Nice ship, but does show its age a little. Items that needed attention were quickly resolved by crew members. Plenty to do for 2 days while on the water. Crew was wonderful and attentive, but they need more people to fill drink orders. Dinning staff was great and a joy to have around. Very attentive to your dinner needs. Overall a great time and we would go on this ship again.

Review of Horizon

February

Pros: Was clean, lots of options for food, lots of activities

Cons: lack of Adult Only areas, pools. Have the adult area on the front it was closed down on several occasions due to wind which forced us to

Recommended: Yes

There were so many different options for kids and families on this ship and very little for adults only. Most of the time the adult area was shut down due to wind and lack of an adult pool. When you spend over a thousand dollars on a drink package and then have to worry about getting pool water splashed into every drink, it's a little frustrating. More areas are needed for just adults.

February

Pros:

Cons: The second comedian

Recommended: Yes

Staff friendly and knowledgeable. Everything very clean. The second comedian was very raunchy. I was not the only person who thought it. I would never go see him again.
