Review summary

Great time by all from 6 to 70. We had 3 balcony suites on deck 6, they

open the wall between the balconies and it was so nice the kids could go

from our room to their parents without going into the hall. My husband and

I had cruised many times on different ships, but Carnival was great for the

kids, it was the first cruise for the 3 younger ones and they loved it. Food was great in the dining room, loved Guys Burgers. Pizza was bad. The Teenagers loved the pizza we had on the Carnival Dream, but of course that was couple years back. I wish the cruise line could stop People hogging the pool area, they would be there by 8 AM with stuff left on the chairs, and then not come back for hours. We never used the pool expect on the days we were in port.

I just think this is so unfair especially to guest who have never cruised before.

My husband and I are taking my daughters for their first cruise. We will be on Deck 6 with balconies that open also. My daughters are 21, 18 and 14. It might be the last big family vacation we can do since my two oldest will both be in college in the fall. It will also be our anniversary. :)

I was wrong on their policy! It's 40 minutes - but I've never seen it enforced!

I agree! What we do now is watch the chairs we want for half an hour and if no one comes we just set their things aside and use the chairs. Haven't had a problem yet! I think that that is actually Carnivals policy.

I agree 100 %. It won't change until all the cruise lines are not afraid to do something.
