I most likely won’t be cruising Carnival again. I much prefer Norwegian all around.

Smooth enough
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
3 out of 5
The “included” food wasn’t great, the Italian and sushi restaurant was good. But those were extra.
Onboard Activities
2 out of 5
Everywhere you went there was so many people, I don’t feel like enough activities were offered to help spread people throughout the ship.
Entertainment
2 out of 5
Just ok!
Children's Programs
I didn’t travel with young children
Service and Staff
3 out of 5
Our room steward was great! Very friendly and attentive. Bar staff at The Alchemy was great. Staff everywhere else throughout the ship appeared not happy and it showed in their interactions with the guests.
Ship Quality
3 out of 5
Lay out of the ship was a tad confusing. Definitely not enough pool lounging space. Especially when the chairs aren’t monitored, people saved chairs and weren’t even sitting in the them. The outside of the boat didn’t look maintained, looked “tired”. Inside the boat, was moderately clean. They didn’t promote people washing their hands when getting back from a port or entering the buffet. People were allowed to enter food areas with no shoes and shirts. To me that is not how to be clean.
Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
Our room was good, comfortable. Balcony was a tad dirty and small.
Ship tip
Bring your patience!! Lots of lines for everything!
Disorganized!! We chose to do easy carry off with our luggage. It wasn’t easy carry off! We had to be out of our room by 8:30am and they didn’t give us priority to get off the boat first which I found strange as we had all our bags with us!
