Review summary

Overall it was a wonderful Cruise. Halloween Party was cute really short due to it being moved to the same night as White Party. Wasnt a Huge Fan of Donkey the then Cruise Director. He was ok but felt a little underwhelmed.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

Smooth and easy, we went with my 11 year old so we had to go through preboarding COVID test but all went very smoothly.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

For me the shows and Casino and Pools were great. My daughter was a little bored because of the kids activities being cancelled. We knew it going in so all was good.

Entertainment

Children's Programs

Only because most were closed due to COVID.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

My Daughter loved these Guys. They made her Trip. Also a gentleman at the Customer service desk went above and beyond and bought her a Build a Bear for no other reason than being just a nice guy. She loves it.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5

Ship was very clean, I just prefer the decor of the older ships. These newer ships are to plain when it comes to decor. Sure they provide massive things to do but they lack in the Amazing decor Carnival is known for.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Always Clean and absolutely wonderful Cabin Steward
