Review summary

Although we do not *typically* cruise with Carnival, we have before and (based upon our positive experience on *this* cruise) will most probably do so again. Had a great time on this cruise with 10 family members.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Room steward was very attentive and engaging. Dining room staff was OVERBOARD WONDERFUL! (Robert and his team are the best!)

Ship Quality

4 out of 5

Ship design is fine. Dining Market tables need cleaning where 'umbrella pole' passes through the table top.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

We prefer an interior room, and this one was of ample size and convenient layout. Bathroom layout provided more sense of openness. All was good!

Ship tip

This *is* a large ship which accommodates a LOT of passengers! (+/-4600)

Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas

5 out of 5

Have been to St Thomas previously. Very nice port, but was unable to visit this cruise due to a 'medical emergency' in the room adjacent to ours, and an inability to procure our passports from our room. (We perfectly understand that a 'medical emergency' trumps any need on our part to access our room. Not Carnival's fault.)

Thumbs Up 8

San Juan, Puerto Rico

4 out of 5

Love SJ . . . Have been previously.

Thumbs Up 6

Grand Turk Island Did not visit port

We just got off the Breeze on March 9, and it was our first cruise back with Carnival since 2007, after Cruising RCCL and NCL since then. We were very pleasantly surprised and had an absolutely wonderful time. We have a B2B booked on the Magic for 2020.
