We selected Carnival because of the Ports:  Amber Cove, St Thomas, San Juan, and Grand Turks. The price was right for the amount of ports. We were pleasantly surprised with the on-ship entertainment. The evening shows were very well done.

This is in the back of the ship on the bottom deck, which means less swaying but loud noise from the ship and heavy vibration. Some neighbors hated it, but it seemed to rock us to sleep.

I read some reviews that had recommended doing the Waterfall tour of Damajagua. We chose to do it through Iguana Mama to save some money. They did a great job with the tour and the Waterfalls were a highlight of the trip.

 

There isn't much at this port. Just a pool and two waterslides. Many people didn't even leave the ship for this port. There isn't a real beach to go to. The water's murky. The town of Puerto Plato is run down. So unless you're doing an excursion, I wouldn't plan on spending much time off the boat here.

I'll be in Amber Cove in October. Please post a review on your likes and dislikes about the Island.

Thanks for posting the review. Glad you didn't let the room issues dampen your cruise. We're doing the Western itinerary in May, but would love to get to Amber Cove soon.
