Review summary
I like to sit on the ship in the shade and look at the ocean to read, nap and listen to music while looking at the ocean. This shop has very little space for this activity. Maybe more umbrellas?? The excursions were a waste except for at least now we know the island layout a bit. Sure cost a lot for such a tour. The food on Carnival is much improved and great! The staff were excellent except there were very few drink runners. Not like usual which looks like being understaffed. The boat needs someplace other than just the bathrooms to sanitize the hands before touching anything in the dining areas or buffet. I don’t know if it was the cruise or not, but both my wife and I got some kind of respiratory cold just after the cruise (last night and the last Sunday night for me). We would wash our hands before meals too. Where is the hand gel dispenser girls to catch everyone or a sink for wash up? We have taken 6 cruises now, (3 with carnival and three with Royal). This was our least favorite. Room view obstruction, bad excursions, and lack of shade for adults, and an illness to boot. We usually are very generous with our ratings too. Oh well, I guess we all have one of those cruises. Again, the staff, band, entertainment was great… so don’t blame them.Embarkation

Ship tip
Could you please make an adult area where you can sit in a lounge chair, in the shade and look at the ocean? Most all lingers face the ocean except the panoramic deck and it is in the sun most of the day
Ports of call
