Review summary

Enjoyed cruising with my family on Carnival Conquest.  I have cruised on 5 other Carnival ships.  Took a little while to understand the lay-out of the ship, ie how to get from our cabin at the front of the ship to the dining room at the back of the ship.  Common areas inside the ship were cramp.  For example when people were shopping at the Pixels studio and hall outside of gift shop it was difficult to walk pass the other guest.  Just not enough space.  Really liked the cabins and the refrigerator in the cabins.  Dinner and wait staff was excellent.  We did have a few occasions where we ordered drinks at the pool and the server never returned with the drinks.  Loved the private island and Grand Turk.  Been to Nassau a few times, and it is just not one of my favorite ports, but most eastern Caribbean cruises stop there.  Disembarkation took longer than usual.   Overall fun cruise.

Don't buy the conch shells. If you go on an excursion in Grand Turk you can get conch shells for free out of the water or on the beach.

Half Moon Cay, Bahamas (Private Island)

5 out of 5
More space on the beach if you keep going pass the crowds.

Grand Turk Island

We were on the conquist and never had trouble getting a drink. We had the opposite problem of them bring them to us.
