Review summary

Overall it was a great trip. We really enjoyed ourselves and will be booking another cruise with Carnival within the next year! We hope to visit new places but definitely want to go back to Paradise Beach in Cozumel.

Embarkation

It was very crowded but ran very smoothly!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
Pretty good variety and the food tasted great!

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Lots of things to do! We especially enjoyed Build A Bear at Sea and Dr. Suess at Sea. We also enjoyed the PG family comedy shows and the trivia games!

Entertainment

5 out of 5
We only saw the Hasbro game show but it was great. The DJ was awesome!

Children's Programs

5 out of 5
My son loved Camp Carnival! He asked specifically to go there everyday!

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Wonderful staff! Very pleasant and helpful!

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
Ship is older so its not in perfect condition however the staff seemed to work 24/7 cleaning everything.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Of course it was small but we were rarely there anyway. The fold down bunk is a great idea and was easy to fold up so we could move around the room during the day.

Ports of call

Mobile, Alabama

5 out of 5
We stayed in Mobile the night before our cruise left. We visited the USS Alabama and ate supper at The Shrimp Basket.

Costa Maya (Mahahual), Mexico

3 out of 5
We only spent an hour off the boat in Costa Maya. The people in the shops were very pushy.

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
We went to Paradise Beach and it was awesome! Great staff with lots of activities and places to relax.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Just like embarkation, crowded but ran surprisingly smoothly. We chose to carry our bags off the ship so it took less than an hour to get off the boat, through customs and back to our car.
