We arrived a little early and were ushered right in to terminal and onto the ship. But, we had to wait in the lobby for 2 hours before we got to go to our rooms. We didn't have enough time in the ports, if I had it to do all over again, wouldn't have booked the excursions and then we woud have had more time to explore the towns. Food was mediocre. Debarkation took around 3 hours. Feeling that I want to try another cruise line next time and bigger ship.

It went pretty smoothly till we got on but, had to wait in the lobby for 2 hours until the rooms were ready.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
3 out of 5
buffet was not that great, dining room was better.
Onboard Activities
2 out of 5
had an acupuncture treatment which was way overpriced but, immediately relieved my neck and shoulder pain, spas were too crowded, to my knowledge no inside whirlpool.
Entertainment
5 out of 5
I liked it, great shows at night, and we particularly like a combo band, blonde singer and black male, and horns in the other part were great.
Service and Staff
4 out of 5
excellent service but, you can tell they never get time off and it is hard not show in their attitudes.
Ship Quality
3 out of 5
all the ships in that class are basically the same on Carnival, don't like this.
Cabin / Stateroom
3 out of 5
We had an inside room, adequate, nothing special, really want a balcony next time, it was very not at first, had to ask for a fan, no windows.
Ship tip
book very early, more is available, and prices are better sometimes
A little research would have made your cruise better. You don't have to wait in lobby for rooms to be ready. You can explore, have a drink, eat, swim, play putt putt, basketball, go to spa, etc...
Self assist on debarkation will get you off ship quickly.
