Review summary

We had a wonderful time again this year with carnival Cruise Line. They do a great job for a very reasonable price. The room noise was disappointing because I’m a light sleeper. It didn’t bother my husband. I would do this cruise again!

Cold but refreshing

Entertainment

3 out of 5
As far as playlist productions. The only one I really enjoyed was the epic rock. You could tell the other crew was brand new and instead of just singing and dancing they tried to make a play and it just ended up corny. Much talent in all the onboard musicians and comedians.

Ebony Cabaret Aft Lounge

4 out of 5

The shows were great. The set up was great as all seats faced the stage but the wait staff was rude.

Amber Palace Main Lounge

5 out of 5

The venue was beautiful

Carnival SeasideTheater

They had two films a night with popcorn and blankets available

Waitstaff in the restaurant was great. The comedy club staff was rude! Steward did fine.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
The design was typical but I like the carnival dream set up better.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5
The cleanliness and size were fine but if you’re a light sleeper this room is not for you. Very noisy with the galley above it. They start VERY early in the morning preparing food.
