Overall this was a fantastic vacation! Our only complaints were that the elevators took FOREVER to come around, we ended up taking the stairs most times; and the A/C did not seem to be functioning very well in the hallways and dining rooms. Our stateroom A/C was fine, and it seemed fine in the Liquid Lounge when we went for shows, but we were hot everywhere else.

Ship experiences
Food and Dining

We ate in the Meridian Dining Room (Deck 3), and at the Italian restaurant, and both were fantastic! Plenty of variety in each dining area around the ship; there's something for everyone!
Onboard Activities
4 out of 5
I enjoyed the pools, but felt that the main pool could have been a bit larger for the amount of people on the ship. My kids loved the water slides and SkyZone areas.
Entertainment
5 out of 5
Top notch shows! Felt like we were watching a Broadway production. The level of talent of all the performers was incredible.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
This is where Carnival excelled! I cannot say enough good things about the maรฎtre d' in the Meridain Dining Room, Amith. He was absolutely wonderful!! We were traveling with a large group, and he was so kind in accommodating all of us for dinner at different times during the cruise. He took the time to speak with us and never acted as if he was too busy to talk to us. And our waiter, Crisjay, was wonderful too. He remembered our names every day, and even called us by name when we would see him around the ship. The little "show" the waiters did each evening was so fun! Our stateroom attendant, Suata, was always there when we needed something.
Ship Quality

Layout and design was fine, and I was always seeing someone cleaning the floors, especially the pool deck areas and bathrooms.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
Our cabin size was sufficient for the two of us. Loved having a balcony! And I slept great on the very comfortable bed.
No excursion here but loved all the cute shops and restaurants. Had dinner at Dal Toro which is a waterfront restaurant. Had fresh snapper for dinner and it was delicious!!
Did the VIP Snorkel and Lunch. Snorkeling spot not as good here as in Grand Turk, but the boat and crew were awesome, and the lunch they served was fantastic!
