The Carnival Dream is just that. It was the best ship we've been on to date. They really do a good job with timing of the shows after dinner. Excursion option were good.

Cabin / Stateroom

We enjoyed the Deluxe Oceanview cabin. Having the extra wash room is the best way to go.
Ship tip
If you aren't going with a balcony or suite cabin, get the Deluxe Oceanview.
We did the Hop On and Off tour. The wait to hop back on was 45 minutes at one of the stops. There was a long wait at the 90 mile marker. I wish we'd rented the dune buggies to go it ourselves instead of all the list time waiting.
Spent my 40th birthday doing a 12 mile bike ride across the island. Our guide was great. The ride wasn't difficult, just hot! We stopped for lunch and then continued by van to the beach for about 2 hours and then back to the port for shopping.
Atlantis was amazing! We had one of the best experiences of any water park we've ever been to. It was so much more than a waterpark. We were able to swim in the ocean, paddle board, and enjoy all of the water park attractions.
