Review summary
We had never been on vacation and didn't get a honeymoon so we decided to go on an actual vacation to celebrate our 30th anniversary. We booked a cruise on the Carnival Breeze and had GREAT time! The cruise director, Schwartz, was hilarious and had us laughing a lot!
We stayed in the premium stateroom 9475, on deck 9 aft and had a wonderful view with an extended balcony.
We ate at the steak restaurant one night and it was great! They even gave us a special dessert and a free glass of champagne for our anniversary! We ate the buffet most of the time and the food was very good. My husband lived the leg of lamb!
About the only thing I didn't like was at the spa. After my massage they worked very hard to sell me a bunch of very overpriced products.
As far as excursions go they were fun. We went on a dolphin swim, a sting ray swim, snorkeling on a coral reef and also went on a submarine ride down to 110 feet! The sub ride was my favorite! The only excursion problem we had was at the dolphin swim. They wouldn't let us use sunscreen and my husband and I both ended up with second degree burns. We will never do that excursion again and will never recommend that one to anyone. We are still dealing with our burns.
We are ready to book our next cruise and are just waiting for Carnival to open up bookings for June 2019, which they said will be anytime!
