Review summary

We loved it and will definitely be back again for a celebration cruise for me graduating college in May! Most likely heading back to Carnival Dream ship again, but that could change dependent upon a few things!

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Very smooth! We sadly missed a due to Hurricane Nate, but our embarkation time was 1:00-1:30. We fot their around 11ish and by 12 they were going ahead and letting us on.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
We used the hot tubs, pools, mini golf, corn-hole(bean bag toss), chess. It was all excellent!

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Wow! Just Wow. Our Cruise Director, Chris “The Flying Scotsman” Williams is on heck of an entertainer! He was absolutely amazing. Not only that, but wvery show we went to he was there, either performing or hosting! Just wow!

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Wait staff in MDR was wonderful. We had Amir and Masha! We loved them! We loved them so much that we havecontact info and will hopefully be on the same ship as them for our next cruise!! Will definitely be requesting them!

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Everything was always clean! Never a lot of trash or anything anywhere. I did have trouble finding trashcans to throw stuff away, just because I find it hard personally to just leave my trash/dirty dishes/etc just laying around for someone else to pick up. But it was also nice in a way to not have trash cans at evey corner!

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Perfect size for the two of us. Very clean and felt like home.

Beautiful place. Didn’t do an excursion, just swam in the sea! Could see the bottom for miles! Loved it!

Cozumel, Mexico

4 out of 5
Cozumel was beautiful as well. We did the Dolphin Encounter Excursion. It was a blast playing woth dolphins and then snorkeling in the actual Caribbean. The only thing we hated was that one picture with only one of us in it(with the dolphin) was $30!!! We planned on paying a little for a picture but we thought that was a little much!

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Sad. We didnmt want to leave! Seriously though, it went rather quickly and easily.
