Review summary

Beautiful ship. Great crew and a truly wonderful experience! We recommend this trip so much that we are booked again for next year

Embarkation

5 out of 5

Was rather easy and quick

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

Excellent, especially the steakhouse, Italian, BBQ and pizza

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

We mainly stayed by the pool, which was constantly attended to by staff

Entertainment

4 out of 5

We saw three shows. First was pretty good, but it seemed as though some dancers missed their cues. Barely noticeable, though. The second show was just a concert because I found out that new dancers to the group were still learning the moves. The third show, called Celestial Strings was PHENOMENAL!!

Children's Programs

Although delayed by 11 years, this was effectively our honeymoon. How many couples bring their children on their honeymoon?? Lol

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Staff always had smiles as they went about their work. Despite them wearing masks, one could tell they were smiling.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

We’d never sailed this class of ship. Great layout and Carnival’s new livery looked really nice

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

We had a Havana interior. We’d never had an interior before. Better for sleeping but not so good for keeping track of time of day. But the bed was comfy and the room was a nice size.
