Most of the staff were very professional and helpful, especially our Cabin attendant Ketut. Others seemed to be overworked and somewhat dismal in their approach to whatever their responsibilities were. The Staff in our Dining Room, the Platinum, were also excellent and responsive, even when service seemed very slow. All smiles and cheerful.
Embarkation

Ship is old, without any glitz or bling and unexciting.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
2 out of 5
Platinum Dining Room was good, Deli was good on some items but not so good on others (i.e., worst chili cheese dog ever), buffets were mediocre. Knowledge of staff working on buffet lines was pitiful (i.e., didn't know what sauces were for), and staff working in Platinum Dining Room didn't know that Carnival Platimum Cruisers received Free drink on At Sea Brunches.

Great Cabin Attendant. Ketut was fantastic. Always available and kept cabin neat and clean.
Ship tip
Arepas con Queso at the BlueIguana Cantina for breakfast are GREAT! Grilled Ham & Cheese at Deli is very good as is the Ruben.
Determined to return to our favorite Port on this Cruise. So many things to do and easy to move around in using several modes of transportation. Fantastic beaches, great food and beautiful scenery. No excursion.
Tip to Cruisers: DO NOT BOOK CAR RENTAL WITH BUDGET IN PORT CANAVERAL. SPENT OVER 2 HOURS IN LINE JUST TO TALK TO AN AGENT THEN WAS SHORT SHEETED ON FUEL LEVEL. WORST CAR RENTAL EXPERIENCE IN OVER 50 YEARS OF RENTING CARS. THE BUDGET AGENCY THERE IS A COMPLETE FLUSTERCUCK DISASTER.
