Review summary

Poor food.  My wife and I returned our entree to the kitchen on the first night because the food was cold and not hot.  Deep fried fish and deep fried chicken look like it had been cook several hours before it was served.  Overall the food was just not acceptable.  We had lunch off the ship in Freeport.  It was not the best meal we have ever had but it was better than the food provided on the ship.

 

The Cruise Director was poor.  On a schedule of one to ten we would give him a one.  We will not book another cruise where the same Cruise Director was on board.  Lack of evening entertainment, just two shows?.  Lack of activities when the ship was at sea.  The Cruise Director was just not doing his job.

I was on this cruise and thought the food was pretty good and lots to choose from. The deli was my favorite. I mean really, what do you expect. I loved the PG and adult comedy show. There was always something going on on ship. Majority of the workers were excellent. My room steward Dewi was the best. We took our 4 children which did hold us back a bit with doing all the ship had to offer but all in all we had great time. Thanks Carnival.
