Great trip. We always have a good time on our Carnival Cruises. We have decided that we prefer 5 day cruises with only two stops instead of three because we like the sea days or maybe we just go on longer cruises 😎
Embarkation
4 out of 5
We had a 10:00-10:30 check in. They did not start boarding till 11:15. It was fast and easy once they started boarding. The only thing we did not care for is they have everyone waiting in chairs very close together you can hardly move. The rows are facing each other and they are not spaced far apart at all. It was a bit too close for comfort in my opinion.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
4 out of 5
Food in the MDR was good. I would love to see some more land choices on the apps menu. The lido buffet was not good. The deli and Guys burgers were good as always.
Onboard Activities
3 out of 5
This was our tenth cruise and we were disappointed in the amount of on board activities. They seemed to be a lot less on this cruise than most of the others. Definitely less trivia. Loved Deal or No Deal.
Entertainment
5 out of 5
Great Shows. Loved the 80s show and Heart & Soul. Both shows were excellent. We Really enjoyed the comedy show with Andy the cruise director. He was better than any comedian we have seen in the last 3 cruises.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Service was excellent as always. Everyone was friendly and helpful.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
The ship was very clean. The decor is a bit older looking but it was not bad. We are curious to see what they are going to change during the scheduled dry dock.
Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
Cabin was nice. Our two complaints were the chairs moving above our heads on the lido throughout the night.The other complaint was the people on one of the balconies below us smoking pot 😞 it made it impossible to be out on our balcony when they were out there.
Ship tip
If you are a light sleeper do not get a cabin on deck 8.
Nice port. Lots of areas with shade. Water was a bit wavy and sand was very soft. We had to stay swimming or you sunk in the sand. Water access from the beach is smaller than we expected.
Appreciate your detailed feedback. Now you know that you should be sure to check what is above your cabin, also be sure not to book above a music or late night venue. Sorry you had fellow passengers that disregarded the smoking (both types) restrictions.
