Creator's Key Takeaways

I did go on this Cruise as a girls trip so we probably got more involved with the entertainment we do anyway

the food was really really good even my friends mentioned about how much they really enjoyed the food on the Carnival luminosa

the carnival luminosa doesn't have the slides or the water parks that the Carnival Splendor has

the time that we were on the C uh the Ocean Plaza really really stunk it was pretty bad

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Take your white outfit even if you're only doing a 4-day cruise because they probably will have a silent white hot night
βœ“If you are going on the Carnival luminosa between now and December expect to see a lovely husband and wife duet
βœ“If you're sensitive to the smell of cigarette smoke, be aware that Americans can actually smoke in the casino

πŸ†•New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

No water slides or water parks β€” If traveling with kids who love slides, consider Carnival Splendor instead
Ship doesn't feel like typical Carnival β€” Expect a different vibe due to Costa conversion, but still enjoyable

Transferred from Costa Cruise Lines, Carnival Luminosa is a sometimes controversial cruise ship because she is quite different to most Carnival cruise ships. She doesn't have all the Carnival bells and whistles... so what does she have? Let's discuss in my opinion, what I do and don't like about the Carnival Luminosa.
