Review summary

Favorite part of the cruise was just the beauty of being on the vast ocean for 7 days and the way we were taken care of by all the staff. The ports were awesome too, loved the fact that I got to visit 3 different beaches on one trip. The food (specifically the burgers at Guys, the Burrito station and omelets, top notch. Of course the fine dining was impeccable, and the service, they treat you like you are the most important), entertainment (loved Flick and Schwartz, the comedians, and the country duo, as well as the nigh shift (keyboard player had us in stitches, what a great entertainer), and the violin players... they rocked some BonJovi!!), accommodations, were fantastic. 

 

Only things I would change. The casino is not a smoke free environment. you have to go through it to get to places. The other thing, not a big deal, is you have to wait in the breakfast buffet line to get milk and cereal and yogurt. It should be separate from the warm food like the eggs, pancakes, and french toast. That area gets backed up a little.

Cabin was always cleaned while we were at dinner, so it was great! The shower was very impressive with strong water and always hot. I think it being my first cruise I expected less, so was extremely impressed.

Ship tip

Take your Yeti! The ice in the drinks melts too fast. Carnival Breeze was a great ship, with great service, accommodations, and entertainment. Food was great as well!
