Very Disappointing! Not enough to do on the ship if you did not drink or gamble!

Review summary

At this point I will not travel on Carnival again. Like I was said, if you did not gamble or drink, you were very bored on the ship. Pickleball was advertised and no one showed up and there was not a pickleball court (it was a volleyball court with volleyball net). The service of the staff and the food was wonderful, no complaints there.

Too long! Too many people are allowed to go when it is not their turn!

Very good, but for a 5 days cruise, only two nights of shows was disappointing. A pickleball tournament was advertised...but no one showed up to organize it and the courts were volleyball courts. Should never have been advertised.

The service was wonderful and we loved our cabin crew and also our waiter at dinner.

Ship tip

To research the ship and make sure there are other things to do aboard that don't include drinking and gambling.

Grand Turk Island

We did not do an excursion or even leave the ship because the island view from the boat wasn't very applealing.

Bimini, Bahamas

Wonderful!! Walked on the beach and swam in the ocean and also took the trolley around the town.

Disembarkation

3 out of 5
too many people left when it was not their turn which backed up everything and put us getting off much later than we thought we would.
