Review summary

Dream was upgraded last year. They now have Guy's Burgers, which are excellent, as one of those upgrades. Steakhouse continues to be very good. We like the decor and presentation of the Dream's Atrium area with the Glass Elevators, etc. We found the crew very friendly and personable. Chris Williams, the Cruise Director on this cruise was EXCELLENT. Best ever and we have been on 17 cruises.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

We had Faster To The Fun. We ALWAYS try and get it and have been successful pretty much everything. That gives us Priority Boarding right behind the Platinum and Diamonds. That combined with Carnival's decision to give 1/2 Window Times to the rest of cruisers, staggers things so you don't have 3,000 people trying to all stand in a terminal to get on.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

They need to change up their Lido Deck menu options and their overall choices for desserts. On Lido, desserts pretty much same every day and close to the same when we cruised the Vista 10/17.
