Review summary

I wish they would bring back cleaning the cabin more than once a day. Spa cabins are great due to the comp use of the thermal suites. Shaqs Big Chicken and Pig & Anchor have breakfast that's easier to grab and go. Lido buffet seating is huge but food choices were poor. Water slides and ropes course were fun. The comedians were entertaining enough... No issues with the staff but none stuck out. The casino was paying much better than the Carnival Freedom last month. No complaints besides our fellow loud mouth weed smoking passengers... Quite annoying.

Layout is pretty chopped up... A map is definitely needed. Keep the app open!

Excellent location for the spa. Used the thermal suites everyday. Bathroom is VERY small. I've been in much larger.

Be aware of the weed smokers in the smoking section on 17

Try the fish spa! I do it everytime I see one! Nice pool area. Too crowded for us. The Sky Bar was a great escape. Water was perfect. We opted to walk farther away from the crowd and layout on the sand instead of paying the locals for chairs. Haven't done that in years!
