Absolute nightmare. Engine stabilizers weren't working, send us to the Bahamas considered Amber Cove as they had done with the previous Cruise. Do not take the screws you will be very very very disappointed!!!

Review summary

This was the worst cruise we have ever been on. Angie was faulty in carnival noon as well as a new we're never going to see Amber Cove and they're going to reroute us to the slums of the Bahamas. The handicap accessible room was a joke and I couldn't even fit White Walker through the door and the first couple days we are tossed around due to the faulty engine stabilizer. Definitely look for a different ship or even better look for a different Cruise Line. Royal Caribbean it's definitely better Lincoln beach houses affordable

Everything was relatively clean to maintained but for a disabled person like me it was not friendly at all . The ship itself is horrendous!!!

Cabin / Stateroom

1 out of 5

Kevin was clean but that was the only thing good about it. This is supposed to be a handicap room and I couldn't fit my Walker through the door. There is barely any room to move around and because the engines in the stabilizer being no good it was throwing us about
