Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Everything was wonderful and staff was superb. The pizza at the Pizzeria was my favorite and a close second was the BlueIguana CantinašŸ˜‹. Didnā€™t eat in the main dining as much as I would liked to have, brunch was great though! Definitely will be on my second cruise šŸ‘šŸ»

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Enjoyed the ample amount of loungers for sunbathing and the serenity deck hot tubs

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Just right for the 3 of us girls. Semi close to the atrium, but once in the room the noise wasnā€™t bad... didnā€™t have any problems sleeping.

Ports of call

Freeport, Grand Bahama Island

4 out of 5
This port was okay, felt like I was entering the Houston ship channel when we arrived... not the most beautiful first impression. Did some shopping here, but other than that nothing spectacular. Did have my first experience with fresh concha and was delicious

Nassau, Bahamas

5 out of 5
Beautiful island, had an amazing beach massage on Junkanoo Beach at The Blue Zone. Enjoyed the beach and lunch at the British Colonial Hilton.

Key West, Florida

5 out of 5
Favorite port of this whole trip!!!

Galveston, Texas

4 out of 5

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
Was a long wait to get off the ship, they start with the upper decks and you have to be on the level near the casino, so the cigarette smoke lingers

Glad you had a great time. We've taken one Carnival cruise on The Sunshine. Key West is lovely, but of course hot...the last state on the east coast.
