Review summary

Cruise was not as good as the Mexico cruise we did the year prior on Carnival Fantasy. Our room bathroom had a strong smell of urine that we repeatedly complained about. They would spray some deodorizer to cover it up and by morning it stinks really bad. Last cruise the bathroom smelled like bleach.

Beautiful beach (water). Huge rats running along backside of Cabbage beach at Paradise Island. Locals are smoking marijuana, having sex, twerking contests. Lots of women in thongs and tops off while laying out. Not a family friendly beach.
