Entertainment

5 out of 5
Comedy club was the best. Doug Williams the comic. He was off the chain (meaning he was funny as hell.) We laughed till we couldn't stop. Go see him when he is on the ship.

Club is really big inside, lots of room to dance.

Ship Quality

I like how they made some new upgrades and changes.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5
Cabin was really, nice. There was a lot of space in the room. But they forgot to clean the bathroom. I called and someone was there right way. We had 3 people in are room. One king bed and a trundle bed. The trundle bed broke the first night. I had to sleep on floor, they brought another bed the next day. It was also broken. So for the whole trip, I slept on a mattress on the floor. They told me that Carvinal will take care of me. I was given a number to call. We will see what happens.

Ship tip

Bring room spray. Drink plenty of water. Most of all let go and have fun.

Ports of call

Long Beach (Los Angeles), California

5 out of 5

Catalina Island, California

5 out of 5
Ship was not able to dock do to ruff waters. So we had to have 2 days at sea. I understand it was for are safety. And that was good that Carvinal took are safety into consideration. The island is very beautiful if you get a chance to see it. And there are a lot of fun things to do there.

Ensenada, Mexico

5 out of 5
Best time ever.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
We went around 8:30am, to get off the ship. We were at the car in 10mins. It was really fast.
