Review summary

Photographer Heinrich made the cruise a wonderful memory by taking pictures of our 25th wedding anniversary vow renewal on the beach at Grand Turk. He did an AMAZING job We had a great cruise BUT Carnival needs to ENFORCE the mask requirements especially at the indoor venues or the cruise industry could face another shutdown

MDR food was good. Staff was great. We had Rex and his waiter team. They were GREAT!

Onboard Activities

Pools and hot tubs in adult areas were empty most times. Others were packed with teenagers. We did bingo. Theater was half full with a large number of people not wearing masks and staff did NOTHING
