Review summary

Very nice -- this was hubby's first so he really enjoyed it. Maybe you have no kids cruises and I just dont know but kids are a NO for me -- trying to relax not see them all crazy with food and running. Staff was exceptional. Maybe have some incentives or rewards for using parking garages and shuttles. Should have had some discount when Progresso was cancelled or at least OBC for pics or food.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Everything was great -- we didnt have a drink package for soft drinks but think there could be some fountain drinks in Lido offered not just juice or tea. I think those Cheers packages may pay off for the drinkers but for Carnival, I think your reputation and standards are compromised when we see people falling down drunk and acting like animals because they keep getting served liquor. Having to walk thru the smoke filled casino was horrific as well. I am sure there was a different way to avoid it but we could not figure it out. Why not have casino, smoking and drinking on one upper level away from those of us that dont. I like all you offer but am looking for an adult more calmer environment.

Onboard Activities

They were good -- Amber was annoying over the loud speaker system. Half the time could not hear in our room, her presence in the Ovation Theater was forced and she didnt seem very authentic.

Entertainment

Flic was great -- Comedy show was raunchy. This really seemed like Carnival lowered their standards. Altho it WA R RATED -- Kids were still there. Why do we want to endorse listening to people discuss human genitalia??? Bad choice -- her PG was not funny either

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Hari Team Server from Indonesia on the Lido deck was exceptional! Welcoming, caring, service was his #1 concern! Not everyone serving had a smile or a good morning -- Hari did -- everytime! Harold in the Dream Studio -- exceptional service! This young man went above and beyond to really create memories. We LOVE his work! TerryLee Effy Ambassador -- great service and sales :-) She got us! Kadek, was our stateroom attendant from Indonesia. Can not say enough -- his proactive service and attentiveness was on point. We were very impressed with all your staff we encountered.

Pretty fast but still slow -- lots of people but seems like a little smoother if you just did by floor.
