Review summary

Don’t be cheap like I was and get the best deal around. There is a reason for that cheap prize.

Embarkation

3 out of 5
Long lines and no shade at the port while you wait for hours outside. Awful.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

1 out of 5
No fresh fruit and a lot of deep fried dishes. I’m missing healthy choices. I lost 1 lb/ day.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
They had a few choices but nothing to write home about. Everything is so old and dirty.

Entertainment

1 out of 5
I walked out of 3 shows. It was not worth my time.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
The staff was friendly and tried their best with the little recourses they could work with. The ship is in need of a major overhaul.

Ship Quality

2 out of 5
It’s a dirty and old ship that screams for a make over. The darkness and low ceilings do not help at all. I’m glad I had the drink package since I couldn’t have survived this trip without it. I will never ever sail on Carneval again.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5
I let them pick the cabin since I did not care where I sleep. The reason for this low rating is the wear and tear of the interior, the dust and dirt, the damaged furniture and soiled couch and nearly no outlets to charge anything.

Ship tip

If you really have to go on a Carneval cruise do not pick this old dirty ship. Spend a little more money and get what you pay for and expect.

Ports of call

Nassau, Bahamas

1 out of 5

Princess Cays (Cruise Line Private Island)

3 out of 5
The tender took forever but was ok. The island is great for beach lovers (but no comparison to Royal Caribbean’s Perfect Day at Coco Cay). The food was even worse than on the ship.

Port Canaveral, Florida

5 out of 5

Disembarkation

1 out of 5
It too 2 hrs to get off the ship standing in a long line. So disorganized.

Please 20 plus months to write a review. The drink package must have just clouded your memory. Since you just recovered from it, at least that worked. Give us a break and be real.

Why bother 20 months after the cruise?
