All of the employees we met were excellent.  They are well trained in customer satisfaction and they all appear to enjoy their jobs.  

The bar service was excellent and they really do pour strong drinks!  The shows in the show room were very poor.  cruise director very boring, and the deck party was a joke. 

There is not a true dance bar(disco/top 40) on the ship only a Latin themed bar, and a bar for karaoke.

The buffet in the Windjammer was a total joke.  They served the exact same food all 4 night.  the food was the poorest I have ever had and this was my 18th cruise.  They need to rethink the buffet.

This was our 13th cruise on Carnival, and our first on the Carnival Breeze.  This is the newest ship and it was very nice.  You can really see the redesign and it looks fantastic.  They have toned down the glitter and neon to a much more professional and clean color scheme.  Its very impressive!

The hallways on deck 5 are great with lots of dining options.   The casino feels bigger and the Cruise Director is the best we have ever seen.  The main DJ is also the best Carnival has.  The room staff and cocktail waiters on the Lido and deck 5 are excellent.

Here are the negatives with this ship.

1. We purchased the Cloud 9 Spa suite because of the additional benefits, it is not work the extra price.  In fact we think the actual suite was smaller than the suites on deck 7.

2. The additional bathroom amenities are just like any other hotel and they do not replenish them.

3.While the 3 thermal spas sound great they don't work very well, and there is no place to hang your robe, we tried it one day and was bored (and we like big spas).  Because they have created these large thermal spa areas they have reduced the main spa changing areas and dressing rooms.  There is only a dry sauna in the men's area and no wet sauna.  the locker room is very small and the workout room is also very small.  

4.it appears that carnival has cut back on staff, they need more cleaning help, for example the casino was dirty and ashtrays full everywhere, need more staff.

Overall great ship but don't do the Cloud 9 spa rooms....save your money.
