Review summary

This was our first cruise so I have nothing to compare but we loved it all!  I would say all the Carnival staff were awesome!  So friendly and learned our names the first day.  The food was great - I liked the Posh dining room and Blue Iguana the best.  I loved the entertainment in the theater and the early comedy shows. My favorite was when they did anything with 80's music.  My only things to complain about were the smoke on the casino level that drifted into the lobby and made it hard to enjoy Deck 5 at all and the way the spa tried to sell you products.  We had some treatments that were awesome but were ruined by them trying to sell us things.  Becca the cruise director was great.  The hairy chest contest was hilarious. I would not do the Flying beach chair excursion on Mahogany Bay - you can walk to the beach without paying $15. The Push Pull Dolphin Excursion on Cozumel and the Barrier Reef snorkeling and private island in Belize were great but too short. We could have enjoyed the beach longer in both excursions.  I am already looking for the next cruise!

Jerry was a great steward. I was glad we picked ACA in with an ocean view. Maybe next time we'll go for the balcony
