Review summary
Avoid springbreak on Carnival unless you have a million kids, unruly kids running around aimlessly and causing havoc. My room steward didn't clean my room several times because the snoozing sign was up and we were not even there and our snoozing sign was in our cabin,once the room steward and I realized we would make an effort to communicate everytime I left the cabin. Kids pressing all the elevator buttons. Running through the hallways and decks. Would stay in the pools and hot tubs all day. The comedian even joked how the cruise was a children's orphanage. The kids definitely outnumbered the adults. As for the ship, it's beautiful, the layout was great, and the venue's were nice. Plenty to keep you entertained, and although kids were everywhere, I still found some quietlocations because the ship is that big.Embarkation
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
Fahrenheit 555 Steakhouse
Not good for the price, when your free options taste better than the fee options, there's a problem. Food quality was not what the best.
Emeril’s Bistro 1397
Great breakfast option, worth the fee.
Seafood Shack
Pricey, but overall good.
Onboard Activities
Carnival WaterWorks
Water slides and water park are so much fun, we would go when everyone was getting ready for dinner to avoid the crowds.
Virtual Windows
Time journey was a very cool concept.
BOLT: Ultimate Sea Coaster
Excellent, fun & scary at the same time.

Ship tip
Be patient, don't set your expectations too high, and don't go during springbreak. Must see Time journey show, eat at Emeril's, a quiet indoor location near latitudes bar or left of gateway; outdoor location, past the port side bbq and outdoor dining venues, nice sun loungers mostly empty.
Ports of call
Amber Cove (Puerto Plata), Dominican Republic
