Overall the cruise was fun. I'm not a big fan of the big ships now that I've been on the Horizon. I'll stick to the midsized ships.
Embarkation
4 out of 5
Not bad but also not good. We showed up at our scheduled time and was waiting outside for about 45 minutes after our scheduled time.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
Food was fantastic! Had verity and was tasteful.
Onboard Activities
4 out of 5
Sports square with the sky bikes and ropes course, was always busy with lines 30+ minutes long.
Entertainment
3 out of 5
I was not a fan of what carnival did with the Playlist Productions on this ship. I don't like how they aren't making stage sets anymore and are using LED video walls.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Everyone I came in contact with was very friendly and helpful.
Ship Quality
4 out of 5
Ship was very clean but I was not a fan of the design. The new smart elevators in my opinion were horrible. I don't like the IMAX theatre dead center of the ship making you walk up or under the theatre to get to the front or back of the ship. I also miss the grand atrium.
Cabin / Stateroom
3 out of 5
Cabin itself was great. The only two downsides I have is it is so far away from everything on the ship and since its on the lowest passenger decks the bow thrusters shake the room. They woke me up at 3am when docking in Port of Miami.
We did not have an excursion in this port so we just walked around the port area. Lots of shops to walk around in. Tenders weren't as bad as people made them out to be.
