Review summary

Awesome experience. Love Carnival and would recommend to others. Planning on another cruise in a few months. The arcade should have a "PACMAN" game.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Was very organized and I liked the sitting area in the waiting zone

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
Main dining room was ok. We got our appetizers a couple of times even before our drinks (Iced Tea) or our bread arrived. Five Guys Burgers was awesome. Best ever. The buffets were spot on. Lots of variety.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
The walking track, miniature golf, the arcade, the contests at pool side all great.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Everyone was great.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Room Stewards were excellent Always there to take care of every and any request. All the ships personnel were friendly and asking if they could do any more to make it better.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
The ship was always spotless and being taken care of around the clock. Layout was good. I think the pool and the area on Lido deck should be bigger.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Awesome from the size to the layout to the cleanliness. All contributed to a totally wonderful experience. The bed was very comfortable and I absolutely l.oved having a tub in our cabin

Ship tip

Enjoy and take advantage of all the ship has to offer.

Ports of call

New Orleans, Louisiana

5 out of 5
I live in New Orleans

Key West, Florida Did not visit port

Rerouted due to Hurricane Irma. Jamaica was great. VIP Bamboo Beach trip was very unorganized and food choice could have been better.

Freeport, Grand Bahama Island Did not visit port

Same as above. Grand Caymen was great. Just walked around and took in all the sights.

Nassau, Bahamas Did not visit port

Same as above. Cozumel was great as usual. Lots of shopping area.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Loved how early we arrived and were able to walk off ship by 7:15 AM. It was the fastest and smoothest disembarkation I've ever experienced.
