Ship experiences
Food and Dining
3 out of 5
Main dining room was awful. Had chicken arm first night. Went two other nights was a mistake.
ChaBang is free and great. Mexican /Chinese place. Use app to get on wait list.
Steak 555 restaurant was great
Buffett had limited options.
Rubys seafood. Yuk
The habachi place. Great. Highly recommend
Skip the main dining room. Salmon had no taste. Etc.
Onboard Activities
4 out of 5
The Mc was awesome for the games. Especially enjoys Love and Marriage game show and the family feud - no video /pics allowed said over and over again
Bolt was down for 1/2 the cruise and randomly stopped at times when working.
Entertainment
3 out of 5
Liked the last show on center stage. But the others just had no story line. Hard to follow. I guess I like a more of a story line shows. Just a bunch of songs put together with some dancing/circ stuff.
Nice video screen backdrop
Comics were hit or miss. Some 5 star and some is why is he here.
Piano bar guy was awesome. Heavy drinker. I hope he does not get liver issues.
One night of him is all you need.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
I thought the staff were great. No issues
Ship Quality
4 out of 5
Very clean. Found the layout odd. A lot of small places.
Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
Suite? Not sure if I would call it that. Just an xl room. A little longer Liked the layout and bathroom.
Ship tip
Use the app. Has all you need. Carnival Hub. Hey it. Use it to make any reservations and get on some waitlists. Like the brunch in the main dining room and chibang included restaurant. See the planner.
Went on an ATV tour. Booked with ship. Skip this. Or inspect your ATV
1. Poor safety gear. Should have a jacket with pads on it
2. Helmet worthless. No protection. Should be more of a softball helmet with more coverage.
I was o nthis tour. All was great. ATV perfect. All of a sudden I was told I needed to switch atvs with no reason given when I ask why. Twice. Other then this is a better one.
It was not better. The front left wheel was wobbly and when I turned slightly left the ATV acted as if I turned it almost all the way so my first left turn I flipped right and got hurt. Could not walk
I thought it went pretty good. Elevators are tough at times. Thought they called groups too quickly. Line was long Should call more groups when the line gets shorter
Thanks for your feedback. I didn’t find that your review was unfair or biased, after having read all reviews for this “new” (ship was revamped and done over) ship and more reviews mentioned the same areas of disappointment.
I hope there’s some improvement by Christmas.
