Review summary

Overall a decent cruise for the money, daughter enjoyed guy's burgers twice and she enjoyed the shows. I liked the sauna and steam room. The poor setup of disembarkation by CARNIVAL was the most disappointment of the whole trip.

Embarkation

4 out of 5
It was much better than the disembarkation.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
Overall it was good, it was great that the dining room requested my daughter order for the next days since she had a peanut allergy.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
We did enjoy the first Bingo game and watched the Deal or No Deal but many of the customers were not happy with the cheesy prizes after paying so much for Deal or No Deal. Did not like there was little access tot he basketball court and mini golf for most of the passengers.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
My daughter enjoyed the shows, especially the 80s show since she is a millineal and listened to much of MTV in the 90s when she was a kid. I enjoyed the steam room and sauna and help with the locker issue.

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
Had no issues with the staff, was great that the restaurant staff put in extra effort.

Ship Quality

3 out of 5
Looks like our cabin windows have not been cleaned in a while and also upstairs. No issues with our room being clean.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Was nice size and had plenty of space for the two of us, but walls were thin and could hear the next cabin at times.

Ship tip

It is a 20 year old ship, my daughter had to cancel the wifi because it did not work. Don't take the Carnival bus to Fort Lauderdale airport, they want you off the boat at 9:30 am but then they hold you too long to catch their 9:30 am ONLY bus, all CARNIVAL FAULT. Still fighting to get our money for this back, they have a 2.5 star rating, should tell you everything.

Ports of call

Miami, Florida Did not visit port

Daughter did not want to visit but I did, nothing she wanted to see there.

Key West, Florida

4 out of 5
Good but long walk to port for my daughter, we got a golf cart but very short stay there so could not see much. But Key West was nice.

Cozumel, Mexico

4 out of 5
Ok, but again very long walk to gate to the real Mexico for my daughter, I did some outside shopping but she was too tired from long walk.

Disembarkation

1 out of 5
Horrible, Carnival kept us on the boat longer than we were suppose to be there and missed the ONLY CARNIVAL BUS to Fort Lauderdale. They want you off the ship by 9:30 and the only bus is at 9:30 am but they don't let you off in time to get the bus? Still fighting to get our money back. VERY, VERY POOR PLANNING BY CARNIVAL. the Disembarkation has the LOWEST RATING or any Carnival Experience.
