Review summary

First I'd like to say thank you Cruise Line and its reviewers, Cruise Tips TV and Mr. & Mrs. Traveler!!!!  Together you ALL made our first cruise experience magnificent!!

 I learned a lot of helpful tips and things to do and not to do from you all!!  Everything went smoothly by us purchasing the faster to the fun!!  Embarkation went soooo FAST we were literally in our room within 10 minutes and our bags were there shortly after.  The other lines appeared to be moving but were VERY long!! Guy Fieri's Burger Joint was amazing just as you guys had said!

I love the staff especially our room steward PUJI ...i tipped him on the 1st day and he made sure all the days that followed our room was awesome!!! They were so nice and it was so much to do never a dull moment on the ship!

 

Catalina Island was very nice and different and the views were amazing we rented a golf cart at Catalina Island we did not reserve one prior to 10 during to the island and it was fine! On Sea Day we slept in till 11 and took the tip to have room service wake us up in our inside cabin by bringing us breakfast which was a great way to wake up!! We need the relaxation for our next day in Ensenada Mexico we were off the boat by 7:30 a.m. which was easy with little to no wait and we spent the entire day on ATVs all around Mexico.  We went to the beach, we went to Papas and Beer, we took pictures at the Ensenada sign with some of the locals giving us tours...Esenada was amazing and the people were friendly and the weather was beautiful.  We had an amazing time...

Back on the ship we enjoyed time in the casino as my husband was in a blackjack tournament with his friend then we also played Bingo and went to the marriage show which was hilariously funnyand a must see!!! The food on the ship was great everywhere that I ate in my opinion

 

I just can't wait till my next Cruise!! The final thing that I will say about our cruise is that the pictures that they offer during dinner time turned out great and they have some of the most talented photographers ever ...soooo needless to say a lot of my money was spent on photographs!!  I wanted to take each and every one of the pictures home with me! Bravo Canival ....job well done!!! -Alicia Meeks
