Review summary

This was our 13th Carnival cruise in the past 20 years. Yes we keep going back. The value for the money is well worth it or we would not keep returning. The layout of the ship was very familiar to us so that helped in going to our places of quite areas.The Serenity adult area was our favorite area, very relaxing and always somewhere to sit. Staff was wonderful as always. The night time entertainment has some improvement still to meet. Shows were predictable if you have cruised with Carnival before, but the side bands and comics were very poor. But to us this was not a big problem because of other thing to walk around and do.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

Only issue here was the lunch dining in the dining room ... the staff was not as good as the night staff at our table. Orders were mixed up and too hurried for our likings. We enjoy going in at lunch to cool off and have a sit down meal which we did a few times but just not the quality that we have had on other Carnival lunches. The Italian lunch above the lido deck was great I highly recommend it.
