Review summary

It truly felt like you were with family. This was our very first cruise. I can’t imagine ever wanting to sail with another company. Nassau was a little too busy for our liking but we found a lot of great things to do there.

Quick and painless

Wow! All the chefs did an amazing job. The waiters were so friendly and accommodating. I wish I had taken pictures of their names so I could mention them!!

Pools, hot tubs, gym, mini golf, bingo, deal or no deal, towel folding, karaoke, build a bear, comedy show, love and marriage, Super Bowl… so much more.

The violins were one of our favorites! Every single time we heard them playing, we would stop and watch.

Our child stayed with us the whole time

Thanks for sharing your cruise

I'm glad you enjoyed Carnival. They are great but no reason to limit yourself from other cruise lines. That would be like only eating out at one restaurant. There is no sense in being loyal to a restaurant or a cruise line.
