Review summary

Our first cruise was amazing! Meredith Jester made the process of booking very easy. She was very knowledgeable and willing to answer the many questions I had, which were several! The accommodations were large and very clean. Our steward, JoJo, was wonderful. We looked forward to the animals he left for us every day. Also, he left us spa gift cards for our birthdays! The breakfast buffet was very good; lunch and dinner buffets just okay. Guy's burgers were delicious. We were a bit disappointed that the other restaurants closed by 3. We also enjoyed the Posh dining room. The servers there were great as well as the food. Please do something about the iced tea. I drink a gallon a day at home and the tea on the ship was disgusting! We loved the entertainment; from the comedy club, to the 70's nightclub and the band in the atrium (simply amazing). We will definitely cruise again!!

That the only thing that I hate about carnival is the tea. I call it liquid shit. Every time I book I ask if they still have that liquid shit they call tea.

Nicely written review but if want your comment about tea to be seen by the cruise line you need to go to their website and contact them. They will not see it here.
