Review summary

Not sure as if I'll ever do Carnival again, was so disappointing. Itinerary was great. Carnivals food and service not so much. Many people, even long time carnival cruisers were complaining

Embarkation

4 out of 5
simple

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

2 out of 5
MDH was ok, several things sent back, and some was just inedible. As far as buffets, it was pretty bad. Their food is getting worse, and most was room temperature

Onboard Activities

2 out of 5
hot tubs were warm,not hot at all, very disappointing. Shows were also disappointing as I'm not into theatrical shows

Entertainment

2 out of 5

Service and Staff

3 out of 5
Some were great employees, and others were just down right miserable.

Ship Quality

3 out of 5
The Luminosa was formally a British ship and only had 1 American style plug in room, and we had no adapters. The decor is somewhat outdated. But it was clean for the most part.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5
room was decent, yet not having only 1 American type outlet to use

Ship tip

Bring Euorpean adapters for plugs in room, Wifi was not good and couldnt use my computer for work.
