  • We were lucky enough to be on the inaugural voyage of the Carnival Luminosa. We stayed in a balcony cabin. Here's out full tour of balcony cabin 8314 on the beautiful Carnival Luminosa.
    EDIT* - in the video we mention that the sofa may be an extra bed. When we took another cruise on the Luminosa we found out that it is not an extra bed, it has drawers underneath. If you want to see what they are like we show this in our video tour of cabin 7258. Sorry for the incorrect information in this video on that.
    You can also find lots more information on our website at www.robandali.net

    Hi, have watched many of your videos. Thanks for producing the content. They are always great to help us decide on various options. We've done one cruise on the Luminosa in an aft balcony cabin on the 4th floor. It was a fantastic cabin and cruise. We are going to do another later this year and are trying to work out which cabin. The only available balcony cabin is on deck 8 not too far from this cabin in your video (I think we would be under the taco/burrito place).
    How did you find the noise?
    Some cruise critic commenters have said its noisy. I am not too sensitive to noise so think perhaps they were being a little critical. We find that there are some heavy critics of the Luminosa in general but our experience is exactly the opposite. We couldn't fault a thing.
    Thanks again for your great content.

      Hi Fraser. Not really sure what is going on with Carnival at the moment for this ship as they are putting out some ridiculous pricing - some less than the OBC they are offering. And it's not just one or two either, we spoke to so many people on board who had $250 pp with $500 OBC deals. We have seen posts since coming back of people with NZ and Christmas cruises for around $250 pp with OBC. I spoke to my TA who is getting a lot of calls from angry customers because of this (they are paying full price and not being offered reduction). TA is trying to find out what is going on but Carnival aren't saying. Sorry for the lengthy response but if you get a good deal then take it as it's a beautiful ship. We're doing more videos and reviews from around the ship so keep a look out. When are you looking at going? We are on board Luminosa again on 2nd April next year.

    • @robandalicruisetravel
      @robandalicruisetravel  Рік тому +1

      Hi Mick. Thanks for watching and for the comment. If we're talking strictly ships then Quantum has better facilities. However, Luminosa, being a smaller ship, has more of an intimate feel and it is certainly a lot easier to get on and off at ports when only the tenders are used. We will be looking to go back on the Quantum or the Ovation but, by the same token, we have a few cruises also booked for the Luminosa. Each ship really has its own character.

      Hi Its certainly not RCCL or P&O the food at the buffet was the worst I have ever experienced, lack of choice, no bacon no butter no bread, deserts were wanting and limited in choice, sizzler had better choice and quantity. Beds were hard as rocks, deck 3 was out of bounds whole trip, smokers forced to the top deck in the elements, toilets backing up all the time. Thats why it was so cheap I will be sticking to RCCL! However the staff were excellent and friendly but sadly this ship needs to up its game if it want to compete with the others.
