Review summary

All in all, great cruise, wonderful itinerary and the Carnival Dream did everything very well and would do this again.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Embarkation was very smooth, easy and very well orchestrated by the Carnival Staff

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
All dining experiences were excellent. Specialty restaurants were better than in the past, Specifically, Guy's Burger Bar and Pig and Anchor restaurants. Selection at the Sushi restaurant menu could be expanded to include sushimi. Mongolian Wok was excellent as usual, but should be outside as before as inside smoke from the preparation was excessive and was not ventilated very well.

Onboard Activities

Entertainment

Children's Programs

no children with us

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Service at Any Time Dining was great, Lead Water, Kiki, and his assistants, Fata and Roger were outstanding and requested their table every night (table 191-201). Cabin Steward, Agus was as good as it gets. He was always there when we needed him and kept our balcony Stateroom immaculate. We did have a leak problem with the shower, but Agus had a plumber correct the problem very promptly. Well done.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Ship was very easy to navigate and was able to find our way around with no trouble

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Our Balcony Stateroom was spacious and very comfortable. Cleanliness was outstanding and our room Steward "Agus" was the best and was more than accommodating.

Ports of call

New Orleans, Louisiana

5 out of 5
No Excursion, but know NOLA well and came in a day early to enjoy the cuisine and ambiance.

Cozumel, Mexico

4 out of 5
Have been many times, so very familiar. Did not go an excursion.

Belize City, Belize

4 out of 5
Fun but not impressive. Did not go an excursion.

Mahogany Bay, Roatan, Bay Islands, Honduras

5 out of 5
Wonderful port. Did go on a motor and boat excursion and had spectacular excursion guide, Eduardo. Enjoyed the dolphin preserve and snorkeling and hospitality of the locals.

Disembarkation

3 out of 5
Disembarkation was not very well organized. Most of the elevators were not operable during the disembarkation, which left 4100 passengers trying to get to the correct deck. Not happy about the way it was handled.
