Review summary

This was our first cruise and it definitely did not disappoint. Due to this awesome experience, we are already looking to book another cruise with different ports to see different things, but definitely will use Carnival for the cruise.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Very quick and easy process, didn't have to wait long if at all.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
We are not lunch/dinner buffet people, the breakfast buffet was good and the made to order omelets were great. We were in the Scarlet dining room with a beautiful ocean window seat for our dinners.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Fitness center was always clean had plenty of room and machines available.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Cruise director Gary was awesome, and made all the shows that much more top notch. All evening shows were outstanding. Music on the ship was tasteful and DJ's did a good job of keeping the crowd interested.

Children's Programs

Did not have kids in our party.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Our dining room waiter Ardar was awesome and made the dining room experience that much better. Only met the room steward the first day and didn't need him throughout the trip.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
The crew that cleans the ship takes pride in their jobs and it shows. There was always someone cleaning something while we were cruising.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Cabin was cleaned every day with no issues. The cabin was bigger than we had originally expected, very pleased.

Ship tip

Don't skip the dining room, completely worth it.

Ports of call

New Orleans, Louisiana

5 out of 5
This was our start and finishing point, didn't visit anything while here.

Montego Bay, Jamaica

5 out of 5
Booking an excursion is a must, nothing to do around the port. Zipline excursion was awesome.

George Town, Grand Cayman

5 out of 5
Beautiful port, lots to do around the port, we did not book an excursion. Spent the day sight seeing/shopping in the area.

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
Beautiful port. Booked the Living History excursion (Chocolate and Tequila), and was definitely an awesome experience. Our guide Tommy was definitely knowledgeable and made the touring experience pleasurable.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Quick, easy. They have it down to an art.
