Review summary

Overall, this cruise was okay. I liked the ports of call but just wasn't that impressed with the ship and the entertainment on the ship.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Very smooth embarkation and very quick

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
The food on this ship was not that great particularly breakfast on the Lido Deck. We ended up eating regularly in the Dining Room for breakfast which was better than the Lido Deck We were treated to the Steakhouse by the casino. The food was not that great. My steak was quite tough. Overall, the food on this ship was just not that great to me.

Entertainment

3 out of 5
Halloween was fun. The costumes were amazing!!! The cruise director did not stand out for me. The stage shows were the same as usual. It's time for new stage shows. The comedians were just not that funny to me.

Service and Staff

3 out of 5
I found the customer service to be a little lacking. I really liked our cabin steward and our dining room servers; others, just didn't seem to be as friendly as what I am used to on a Carnival ship.

Ship Quality

3 out of 5
The ship is aging and you can see that throughout.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
I was on deck 7 with a ocean view at the very front of the ship. It was a nice cabin and enough space for 2.

Ports of call

New Orleans, Louisiana

5 out of 5
Stayed overnight at the end of the cruise at Harrah's Hotel. I had a great experience with touring, eating, etc. in New Orleans.

Montego Bay, Jamaica

5 out of 5
I did an excursion outside of Carnival. It was a nice tour that included eating lunch at a local restaurant and a 2 hour stay at the beach.

George Town, Grand Cayman

3 out of 5
I did the semi-sub excursion through Carnival. It was a nice experience but it was right at the port and certainly within walking distance. We rode a bus outside the gates and then we were there. We ended up walking back which was not an issue at all. In my opinion, there was no need for the bus.

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
Went to Mr. Sanchos Beach Resort. We stayed there all day and enjoyed every minute of it.
