While cruising is always fun and we’ve done 4 Carnival cruises, this one was hands down not the best. Was very disappointed with the Fantasy class ship.

Ship experiences
Food and Dining
3 out of 5
The main dining room dinners were very underwhelming. This was my fourth cruise and of the 6 dinners, 4 were at best average as typically it’s difficult to choose what you want, but here you were lucky to find one thing you wanted. The prime rib was tough, in fact we had somebody at our table of 10 send a dinner back once a night.
Onboard Activities

Entertainment
3 out of 5
The stage shows were just ok. The performers tried their best but the choreography was just not good.
Service and Staff
3 out of 5
We had a couple of people that were really good, Gusti (on deck bar waiter) and our dinner staff (Bria, Noni and Edgar). However, our daughters (26 years old) shared a cabin with their 33 year old cousin, which was not set up correctly (2 single beds and a child’s cot not set up). They complained about the issue and were not taken seriously until we (parents) had to not only intervene but tell the housing manager how to set up the room. We spent the first 3 hours of the cruise having to deal with this. Totally unacceptable!!
Ship Quality
3 out of 5
Fairly well maintained but was a small ship that needs updating. Would not ever take a Fantasy class again.
Cabin / Stateroom
3 out of 5
For a balcony room, it was smaller than our usual balcony room.
Best ever Jeep 4x4 off road adventure! 80% of your excursion is driving your own vehicle off road to places most natives have never been! Errington and Anthony were the absolute best!!!!!
