Review summary

I loved the cruise and had a great time. From the time we loaded the ship to the time we got off the ship all of the staff was super friendly! I loved being greeted by all of their cheerful faces and I felt pampered the entire trip. I would love to go again sometime!

Embarkation

5 out of 5
It didn't take long to get on the boat and there were plenty of friendly staff everywhere to help us new cruisers find our cabin and know what was happening.

Entertainment

For the most part the entertainment was good. It wasn't broadway but it was what you would expect on a cruise.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
I loved the staff on the cruise. The cleaning crew was always so cheerful when they saw us and would welcome us with a warm greeting and ask how our day was going. They always had smiles and were cheerful, The waiting staff was also amazing. They knew us by name and were always cheerful and nice. They were entertaining and seemed to enjoy what they do.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
I never experienced a place that was not clean through out the cruise.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
I felt like our cabin was the perfect size. There was plenty of space to put away clothes and then store your suite case so it wasn't in the way. I didn't feel cramped like I thought I would.

Ship tip

Download the carnival app. They had a list of all the activities for every day that you could scroll thru and choose your favorites. Then it would alert you when an activity was happening that you or someone in your cabin wanted to attend.

Ports of call

Ft. Lauderdale (Port Everglades), Florida

4 out of 5
It was good but I wish there were more options for excursions between the time we debarked and the time we had to be at the airport. We had to be at the airport before the everglades excursion would be over but we ended up getting to the airport hours before we needed to be there because we had nothing to do with our luggage.

Nassau, Bahamas

5 out of 5
We went to the Atlantis water park. It was expensive but it was worth it to experience it once. The slides were tons of fun and the park was easy to navigate with plenty of things to do to last all day.

Half Moon Cay, Bahamas (Private Island)

5 out of 5
We did not do an excursion but there was plenty to do on this island. We walked the length of the beach, got some great pictures with the sea and the ship behind us with no other people in the background, we swam and watched the fish and one stingray with the goggles we took, we played beach volleyball, relaxed in the beach chairs, and ate a BBQ picnic lunch.

Grand Turk Island

5 out of 5
We did the swim with the sting rays excursion. This was fun because we got to snorkel in two different places and explore the reefs. Our guides were great and lots of fun. We didn't get to dive for our conch shells because of the strong current but our guides dove down and got some for us. The only thing was the brochure said we would get to keep a conch shell with a note saying we could have it but when we asked about it they said we wouldn't be able to keep it because of customs.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Like the embarkation, the disembarkation had plenty of staff everywhere ready to help us navigate our way off the ship. Even though the line was long it moved quickly and we didn't have to stand in line for long.
