Review summary

Due to the coronavirus we did not go to our original stops. Carnival did a great job making the best out of a bad situation. We were compensated with a $200 credit to our cabin.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

My husband and I are platinum so embarkation is usually quick and easy.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

The food options were awesome. My favorite was Guy's Pig & Anchor. We are there the first night. We wanted to go back but there was always a line. Highly recommend. I also though the sushi at Bonsai was really good.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

The Skyride is a must. It was awesome!!!! The main pool was crowded but it was fun. I don't really love the huts by the pool. They take the view of the pool away and chair space.

Entertainment

5 out of 5

Lip Sync Battle has yet to disappoint. It is great!

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Our towel gal on lido was great. She remembered me everyday.

Ship Quality

2 out of 5

The elevators are my one complaint. They suck. Our cabin was on 9 and twice we took the stairs from the gangway. The elevators never came and when they did they were full. The system doesn't work on a cruise ship. The ship itself was really nice. The crew were always cleaning and so nice.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

No complaints. Nice location in the middle of the ship. Not too much noise.

Ports of call

Miami, Florida

We went to Amber Cove, Grand Turk and Nassau, due to Covid-19.

Carnival switched it up because of Covid

Made the best of Cruise...
