Review summary

This was an excellent cruise, especially for a new one. The excursions all through Carnival were great. I'll be back on Celebration in May to the ABC Islands and I can't wait!

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Very fast smooth embarkation. I think 12:30 was the perfect time. My room was ready shortly thereafter.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
I only ate in the MDR for Sea Day Brunch and port Day Brunch (it was good). The juices were watered down. Skillet Cake, French Toast with Bananas Foster, Sausage, etc. was really good. I enjoyed the Specialty Restaurants especially Emeril's (worth evert penny). I tried Rudi's Seagrill, bit Emeril's was better. Chibang was amazing. The Steakhouse was pretty good. The service at Cucina's was very slow. Shaq's Big Chicken and Room Service breakfast sandwich were great! Bar 820's The Flamingo and Key Lime Pie are must have drinks. If you like them on the sweeter side!

Overall it was great, especially my Cabin Attendant. The crew was extremely friendly! The service in Cucina's was extremely slow.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
The ship is beautiful and clean. I love the new Serenity area, Thermal Suite, AFT Decks. The ship is so big with a lot of private seating areas so it never felt crowded and you could always find a private quiet area.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
New and clean with a private balcony. The bathroom is tiny though.

Ship tip

Select Anytime Dining so that you can take advantage of the included Specialty Restaurants.
