Review summary

I would not spend the extra money that the other cruise lines charge. Carnival is affordable and they couldn't possibly do any better with customer service. Our ship was a bit old, but it simply didn't matter. They provided everything you could ever want and more. I cannot wait to book my next cruise and it will definitely be on Carnival!

Everything was super cleaned and well maintained.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
It was the perfect corner room. I would not book anything other than a balcony room. A little small, but it is a cruise ship.

Ports of call

San Juan, Puerto Rico

4 out of 5
We didn't visit this port other than try to find our hotel as we flew in the night before departure. It was very difficult to drive around San Juan.

Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas

5 out of 5
The beaches were beautiful! The Kon Tiki excursion was fun and I would recommend it to everyone.

Philipsburg, St. Maarten

5 out of 5
Nice island. We did a trolley tour and visited the beach. I had my hair put in braids by someone on the beach.

Basseterre, St. Kitts

5 out of 5
By far my favorite island! I swam with the dolphins and it was the most amazing experience of my life!! Everyone has to do this!

Castries, St. Lucia

4 out of 5
My least favorite island. It was expensive and people were not as friendly as the other islands. The train excursion was boring.

Bridgetown, Barbados

5 out of 5
The beaches were beautiful! We did the 2 beach excursion and it was fun and relaxing.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
They allowed us to leave last so we could head to the hotel as late as possible.
