The main dining area was very great the friendly staff made everything that much better. The Lido buffets stayed stocked with fresh food as far as lunch and breakfast time.

The great thing about the pizza was Not only was it 24 hours but it was fresh made-to-order and very delicious

Service and Staff

The staff on this ship was excellent I mean incredibly awesome they did a very good job making sure everybody was happy.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
I heard a lot of complaints about how old the fantasy was, but the ship didn't seem old at all and it might have been because of the Christmas decorations but everything look beautiful.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Ship tip

Enjoy the ship for what it is. I know it's one of the smallest and I believe it is the oldest ship in the carnival Fleet but it is a beautiful ship it has plenty of things to do would definitely sail on the fantasy again in a heartbeat.

Ports of call

Mobile, Alabama

5 out of 5

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
I would recommend Paradise Beach with no hesitation it was absolutely wonderful for a family of four we had so much fun and the price was very very reasonable the food is also incredible. This will not be my last time to the beach I can promise

Progreso (Merida), Mexico

5 out of 5
Carnival has a 4-Hour Mayan Temple Excursion it's worth it trust me you don't spend all day at the ruins and you get just as much if not more knowledge because Jose is a great tour guide.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Very easy to get off everything was done in a timely manner.

This is our first time on the fantasy. We’ve been out of NOLA and Galveston... and been on several different ships, but this is the first time in the fantasy. Glad to know that it’s a wonderful ship!
