Review summary

Worst cruise to date. Carnival markets their ship as fun ships, but they are trying to make them a party ship. 18 years drunk and rowdy in the hot tubs and a family near by had to call security. What did security do, nothing but ask them if they would please keep it to a minimum. Never addressed the underage drinking. Also, expect to stand in lines for everything, and I mean everything. Never have the lines on any cruise ship,or cruise line that I have been on, ever been so long. Be prepared because the lines are not just long, but they are everywhere you go. Had this been my first cruise, I would have never cruised again. Carnival is obviously cutting perks and trying to cut costs to maximize profits, but in the process they are only driving people to other cruise lines in doing so. I would advise only doing carnival if that is the only cruise that you can afford at the time. Trust me, pay the extra money and go with a different cruise line, it is well worth the money

Service and Staff

Here is where it really starts getting bad. Worst service ever, even worse than on the much smaller ships.

Ship Quality

1 out of 5
The ship smelled like soured. Like it got flooded and had that mildew smell to it.

Cabin / Stateroom

Smaller than you would think considering the price.

Ship tip

Be prepared for EXTREMELY long lines in every single thing aspect of the ship. Getting off at port was awful. However nothing comes even close to the breakfast and lunch lines. They were a nightmare!!! We waited 50 minutes for breakfast. This has to change if carnival wants to keep their guests returning. From here on out, I will not even consider cruising with carnival ever again. I have done many on carnival and wont even consider them again.

Ports of call

Port Canaveral, Florida

Port wasn't bad, but didn't do any excursion.

Amber Cove (Puerto Plata), Dominican Republic

3 out of 5
Very dirty. We did a private beach house so that made the port much better.

Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas

Went to Meghan bay and enjoyed a very pretty beach day.

San Juan, Puerto Rico

Did not get off the ship at this port. I already did the fort, so there wasnt anything else to see.

Grand Turk Island

5 out of 5
Some of the most beautiful water anywhere in the world. You will not be disappointed with this port I promise.

Disembarkation

1 out of 5
Most people didn't follow the way you were suppose to be called to exit the ship and again total bottleneck and confusion. Carnival guests are the very worst about doing this.
