Review summary

While we did not live in the lap of luxury on the cruise, but we received great value for the trip. We booked an un-assigned room for the trip to save a buck; we weren't so lucky in that they assigned us the room on the bottom deck in the back of the boat. Which we didn't mind, because lets face it, who stays in their room on a cruise? The only problem with the room is it stayed warm the whole trip, we were not able to adjust the air. The ports were fabulous, Aruba was our favorite. We did some excursions through the cruise line, but our favorite excursion was booked directly with Aruba Watersports. We enjoyed the dining room much more on this cruise than in the past. Service was excellent. There was a dispute on our bill, it was hard (time consuming) to get it correctly, right before debarkation, Guest services was able to rectify.

Climate was hard to control and bugs were found in the cabin. Carnival promptly addressed the ants, but never adjusted the climate.

There is a adults only deck, but now Serenity Deck.

Would you book like that again? Was it worth the money you saved?
