Review summary

This was an amazing week. Carnival has the best employees. They were there at every turn to take care of us. I traveled with one teenager, two little boys and my husband. There was never a "bored" time for anyone. We could relax when we wanted and play as much as we wanted. We will definitely use Carnival again. 

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
We had the best waitstaff!! We loved them so much that we were sad and had to hug them at our last dinner service. I Gusti and his team were awesome.

Onboard Activities

Entertainment

5 out of 5
The shows were good talent wise but if you like a "G" rating on their costumes I can't give you that. We left one show bc they had their hineys hanging out of their shorts and tiny tops. Great talent but I prefer more clothes.

Children's Programs

5 out of 5
My boys loved their time at their clubs. My 5 year old asked every day to go to his!

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Our cabin was taken care of by JB Joey and his assistant. They were so nice and kept us fully stocked with towels and our room was clean every night (by my choice- versus in the morning).

Ship tip

I would highly recommend using the Carnival Hub App. It keeps you aware of the show schedules, your account balance, you can chat with your kids to know where they are, and see what food options are at all times.

We are grandparents taking our 10 year old grandson on the Carnival Dream on June 4. Can you recommend excursions for us?
