Review summary

Overall we had a wonderful time on the Dream. Ignatius, Gede, Rong, Indrawan, Christina, and Zack Daniels were a big part of our awesome cruise! They are definitely an asset to Carnival Cruise Line.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
The staff was very efficient and we moved along quickly.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
We cruised on the Dream and sat at table 514 in the Scarlet dining room late dining. All of our staff went above and beyond. We had cruised before and Ignatius and Gede were our waiters previously and we asked Shane if we could be at there table again, and Shane worked it out to make it happen. We enjoy visiting with Ignatius and Gede. Even though they are very busy they made us feel like we were the only people they were waiting on. Through them we also met Indrawan and Rong. They were both eager to help also and very nice. We would see Rong in the Gathering and she would visit with us and help answer any questions we had. I can’t say enough good about all 4 of those staff members!

Scarlet Dining Room

5 out of 5

Ignatius, Gede, Indrawan, Rong, and Shane were all wonderful. They made us feel like we were the only people they were taking care of.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
I can’t rate the activities with a five star because while we were onboard the only activity we did was soak up the sun on the Dream Serenity deck which was great!

Entertainment

5 out of 5
We were late dining so we would make it a point to go see The Encore shows which were amazing and after we ate we would go to the piano bar to see Zack Daniels every night. He was so much fun and you could tell he enjoyed what he was doing! Loved it!

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
We sailed on the Dream in room 9343 and Christina was our steward. She went above and beyond to make our cruise more memorable. Very efficient and quick to meet our needs. We asked to have the balcony partition opened between us and our friends room and before we knew it, it was done. She was great!

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Yes. This was the second time we have cruised on the Dream and both times it has been well kept.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
There was nothing wrong with the room other than the location of it. We were right under the Lido deck and we were constantly hearing chairs scoot above us. Maybe the cabins under the Lido deck should be at a discount.

Ship tip

To make sure your room isn’t right under the Lido deck.

Ports of call

New Orleans, Louisiana

5 out of 5
We stayed at the Drury Inn and it was great.

Montego Bay, Jamaica

5 out of 5
We did our own excursion to Dunne Falls. It was awesome! We talked to some locals there. They were a little pushy to sell us things.

George Town, Grand Cayman

5 out of 5
This port was very clean. We did our own excursion to take a helicopter ride. Amazing!

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
We did our own excursion since we had been here before, we knew where we wanted to go to scuba dive. We had a taxi take us to Buccano’s Beach Club. We enjoyed it very much.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Very smooth. We didn’t have to wait at all.
