Review summary

I loved the way carnival welcomed us aboard the music was wonderful. Also enjoyed the last night partying in the Atrium with cruise Director Malcolm! I did purchase the Cheers package but most drinks seemed kind of watered down or weak. I loved Alchemy and of Redfrog bar. Had fun but was disappointed to find out that everything closes up at night. All dressed up on my birthday and nothing was open late except the casino which I did enjoy😊

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

Was expecting some real authentic Mexican food on board, couldn't find any. Breakfast was the best.

Entertainment

3 out of 5

Really disappointed that everything shuts down at night like 1 or 1:45am. I'm on vacation I want to stay up late party! Nothing open but Smokey casino.

Cabin / Stateroom

Make sure you explain to Guest the bunkbedsare are up top! And they must we let down by staff only with right tools! We could've never got them down by ourselves.

Ship tip

One too i would give us to make sure you check your statements if you are adding money on child's sail and sail sign card do it at the guest services Not the kiost! Plan to eat early so you can go to at least one show a night.
