Review summary

Haven't been on Carnival since 2002. Was a little skeptical since it is considered a cruise for young people. Even though there was an incident a the club one evening, it did not ruin our trip and heard it was handled quickly. Overall we enjoyed the newness of the ship and digital advances for diner reservations and ordering pictures. Most likely will go again but not during the summer when children are out of school.

Glad we were able to store suitcases under the bed. Nice space for two persons to move about.

Vacations are ALWAYS GREAT!

This was a Wonderful Caribbean Cruise. The people were friendly and hospitable, and we were able to learn about the culture and eat typical food from the surrounding areas. Although the scenery was like our home in Costa Rica, it was still beautiful.
