Review summary

I have been on many cruises and enjoyed all of them. This was honestly the first one I have found to be lacking in most areas, I was very disappointed in this ship

Embarkation

5 out of 5

Fairly easy and smooth embarkation. Most of the luggage arrived rather quickly and the room was ready for occupation

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

1 out of 5

They food was sub par on all levels. The entire dining experience was not good. Our entire family did not enjoy any meal we had. When we ate in the restaurant the service was slow, the table was cluttered with unnecessary items such as wine bottles and glasses. When dining at the buffet the lines were slow and long. Many food trays were empty and we needed to wait for them to be refilled and the food was cold

Onboard Activities

You say you've been on many cruises. your profile says you only been on the One. the one You're evaluating. If you've have ever cruised on Carnival everyone knows there's only two outlets. one in the bathroom and one behind the TV in most rooms. If you've ever Cruised everyone knows there's only two outlets one in the bathroom and one behind the TV. One person's unnecessary items on the table might be useful for others. they have always put them on the tables.
