Review summary

We had so much fun! It was a great first time experience.I booked it without reading reviews and have no regrets! Definitely worth repeating.A downside is that they have these cheers packages(alcoholic drinks) but it is based on your room: so if you have 5 adults in the room and want 1 cheers package,it isn’t possible;they will charge you 5x$59.99/day.You can’t just select 1 😞Also the drinks are very very weak,just a little drop of alcohol.The Bahama mama,the margarita,you just don’t taste the alcohol….Overall experience was superb! We loved it

My daughter loved everything so much about the cruise ship that she didn’t want to leave. She said she will hide LOL 😆

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
I have zero complaints about anyone! I’m extremely satisfied with their service. Thanks to Krisna,my room was spotless and perfectly organized.Rowell(and his fellow waiters)from Monet restaurant treated us as royalty,fast and excellent service!And all the waiters at the breakfast and lunch buffet made our day with their service.Ms. Thandi made me feel more beautiful with the 50 minutes facial, and also provided me with expert info about my skin and in general.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
We loved everything about the ship and it was clean and well maintained.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
The cabin was comfortable for single person or a couple but not for more than 2 people.The beds are small.However it was very clean and well maintained.

Ship tip

If you’re traveling solo or as a couple,the interior State room is good but if you’re traveling with more than 2 people I’d say go for a bigger room or book different rooms.The interior state rooms sleeps 4 people,2 on top on single beds and 2 on the bottom on single beds,so it would still be great for 4 singles,maybe female friends or male friends.

Ports of call

Miami, Florida Did not visit port

We didn’t do any excursions as we had to take a flight back home but overall it was good,about 13 minutes away.

Half Moon Cay, Bahamas (Private Island)

5 out of 5
We loved Half Moon Cay! We did the tram excursion and loved every bit of it.The blue watered sandy beach with a clear view of the ship,is breathtaking.The seven year grapes(or was it apples?correct me if I’m wrong) everywhere on the island and they’re edible!! I couldn’t find any ripe ones but I know about those grapes and apples from my home town(Suriname 🇸🇷 in South America).Definitely worth going back.

Nassau, Bahamas

3 out of 5
It was ok,the streets are very busy and very very narrow.We loved the rum cakes but not the ice cream.It’s expensive ($15) but it doesn’t taste good and it’s like milk shake.We made another stop at the rum distillery and we had delicious piña colada sample. And there’s a lady in the front selling tasty food.We enjoyed the seafood basket(fried shrimp,conch and calamari) and the jerk pork with macaroni pie and fried plantains.Must try!

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Disembarkation went smoothly,without any hassle or delays.

Loved the Conquest when we were on in 2019. Out of our 10 cruises, that was the only Carnival ship we have been on and it was a favorite! Glad you enjoyed.

Appreciate your detailed and informative review. Tell your daughter that, they will find you and then ban you, so it isn’t worth it. Glad you enjoyed your cruise.
