Review summary

Cruise was wonderful. Could not have asked for much better. Experience was more that I was expecting as this was my first Carnival and I had previously cruised on Royal Caribbean or Princess.

Embarkation

4 out of 5

Getting on the ship was not quite as smooth as Royal Caribbean as we had to stand outside for quite sometime before they would let people in to begin checking in and going to waiting areas. I believe this was a new process so it may get better as kinks are worked out.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Waiters, Room Steward, and everyone else I encountered were cheerful and always happy to help. Malcome "WooHoo" Burn was the best Cruise Director that I have ever seen on any ship from any Cruise Line.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5

The ship was really clean in all areas. The only complaint that I have is the design where levels 3 and 4 are blocked by a dining room for through access and I personally do not like the fact that you can not walk all the way around the ship outside on deck 3 or 4.
