We spent about 45 minutes at the party and then headed back to the theater. We were not going to participate, so like several other cruisers, we hid towards the back of the venue. Again, we have seen versions of this show dozens of times, and the Carnival version was a bit more tame.
Day 1: Long Beach (Los Angeles)
Stateroom photos are for sample purposes only -- actual design and layout may vary. With so many options, we decided to sample selections from the deli today. It was now official that Carnival Panorama had some of the best casual dining that we have ever had on a cruise ship. After the show, it was up to the lido deck for the Mega Deck Party and a round of drinks from the RedFrog Rum Bar. Mega it was, as fellow cruisers were out there strutting their stuff alongside Emma again tonight. A mix of common cruise songs and pop music, the deck party lasted until about 11 pm.
Baja Mexico
Sad that our cruise was over, it only means that we beginning planning for the next one. Next up is Royal Caribbean’s amplified Freedom of the Seas, but we can certainly see ourselves on another Carnival cruise in the near future. The menu did not feature the Princess’ go-to turkey dinner, a last night staple on Royal Caribbean. Instead, she went with a caprese salad and cornmeal crusted chicken. Good thing the Tides Bar had a short wait as we ordered our only frozen drinks of the entire cruise! While the Princess waited in a long pizza line, I snagged a shrimp burrito from BlueIguana and a table.
Our Usual Self-Guided Ship Tour
While not as well attended as the earlier sail away party, there were certainly plenty of people out on the dance floor. We ended the night with a round of drinks and the late night comedy show in the theater featuring Azeem and Tommy Drake each doing about a 20 minute set. The ship also features a variety of casual dining options. We were thoroughly impressed with the eateries including the BlueIguana Cantina and Guy’s Burger Joint. You also can’t go wrong with the hot and fresh 24 hour pizza or the custom sandwich creations at the Carnival Deli.

The entire event lasted about an hour, and it was a great way to top off the cruise. While Carnival had offered us a specialty dinner at Cucina del Capitano, we decided to spend our last night in the main dining room. That way, we could say goodbye to our great waitstaff and properly thank them. Finishing up close to 2 pm, we wanted to get some last hours of sunlight. Unfortunately, it was a bit too cold and windy on the top decks, as well as the Deck 5 outdoor promenade.
That meant that after we finished our cabin tour, we were able to unpack and get the room situated for our 7-night voyage. When we say that Carnival Miracle takes you to another world, we mean that in every sense. Not only does this ship visit stunning destinations, but features incredible onboard spaces inspired by elements of fantasy. Escape from reality as you take in a show at the Phantom Lounge or a dance at Dr. Frankenstein's Lab. To lose yourself in a song, find your way to Sam's Piano Bar. You'll find great food all over the place, from the casual fare of Horatio's to the artful eats of the Bacchus and Ariadne dining rooms...
A Day on Cabo San Lucas
And up in SkyBox™ Sports Bar, we've combined luxury-box comfort with the up-close view from the 50-yard line. It’s not all action, though, because relaxation options like Cloud 9 Spa™ and Serenity Adult-Only Retreat™ are on the menu. History buffs can explore three distinct and historic locales in the Sierra Madre foothills on the Colonial Villages of Sierra Madre excursion.

We still think that the best cruise ship steakhouse is Fine Cut on Celebrity Edge. Dinner took nearly two hours tonight, and the service was rather inconsistent. For this day, we opted for the breakfast burritos at the BlueIguana Cantina. These are made to order, and we gave them a big thumbs up. Following the Welcome Aboard show, most of the crowd strolled to the Atrium for Rock the Promenade, also hosted by Emma.
Carnival Panorama Mexican Riviera Cruise Review – Day 6
Hashtag your cruise photos #carnival and #cabosanlucas — you may see them right here. Mexico might be right down there, but it exists in another world entirely. Experience a whole enchilada’s worth of rich culture and fun on a cruise to Mexico. Each port — including favorites Cozumel, Cabo San Lucas and Puerto Vallarta — contributes its own distinct local flavor to the mix. With an overwhelming world of choices, we understand you may need some personal assistance to plan your perfect vacation.
Starting late, the Welcome Aboard show consisted of the typical cruise director introductions. There were also a few numbers from the ship’s singers and dancers with a wide range of songs from Van Halen to Bruno Mars and John Legend. So, it was a quick costume change and to the dining room with a few minutes to spare.
We were back to the theater at 9 pm to grab seats and a round of drinks. While the Love and Marriage show did provide a few laughs, it was more tame than the versions found on RCI and NCL. She was still a great host, but she had a more PG approach to her jokes and innuendo. By midnight, the songs had shifted to more modern pop songs. So, it was time for bed to rest up and prepare for our last port of call, Puerto Vallarta. For today’s breakfast, the Princess wanted to try the main dining room.
So, we arranged our morning routines to make sure we were down to the Vista restaurant on deck 3 for 9 am. Tomorrow was our first port of call in Cabo San Lucas, and we needed to be prepared for an action packed day. We stayed in cabin 8387, which was located further aft than we realized when booking. As far as cabins go, it was a pretty basic balcony cabin with rather plain decor. We thought the storage was average, and the size was on par with other contemporary cruise lines.
We detail every moment of this West Coast cruise in our signature, day-by-day Carnival Panorama Mexican Riviera Cruise Review. Beautiful beaches, on-land adventures and delicious food — this is what’s on the menu when you cruise to the Mexican Riviera. Our Mexican Riviera cruises are the perfect vacation for days of sights to see. And don't forget about the beaches and underwater scenery of Cabo San Lucas.
Our Uber picked us up at the Hyatt Centric Hotel in Long Beach around 10 am for the short drive over to the port. Carnival Panorama is currently Carnival Cruise Line’s largest vessel. This mega-ship holds approximately 4,000 passengers and includes several familiar favorites found throughout the fleet. On the outdoor decks, kids of all ages will enjoy the Carnival Waterworks, which includes two waterslides and a children’s splash area.
While we did not join the main dance floor, we certainly rocked out to the 80’s tunes along with some drinks from the BlueIguana tequila bar. For this stop, we booked the nighttime show Rhythms of the Night. While I wanted to do a guided tour of the city and Malecon, none of the tours worked with the meeting time for our pre-purchased evening show. Our ship was scheduled to arrive for 10 am, with our tour meeting at 11 am. Next, it was a mad dash to the main theater for the first Playlist Production show, Broadway Beats.
So, we would see a few flippers or tails here and there, but they were rather far away from the boat. If you really want to get up close and personal, book a smaller boat or a zodiac tour. Lunch at the restaurant consisted of custom noodle dishes served hot and cooked to perfection. Afterwards, we made a quick pit stop at our room to grab our gear and found some quiet space on the deck 5 outdoor promenade for a couple of hours.
