Review summary
This cruise was the worst. People would place towels on chairs and reserve them. In most cases the chairs would remain empty for hours. We even experienced people fighting over chairs.The noise on the Lido deck was oppressive. The D.J. was loud and obnoxious, especially with my two children around. There was literally no Island music. Just a constant blaring of Hip Hop and Justin Beeber. Even at the Port of Calls there was loud rap music and believe it or not, more Justin Beeber. The lines at the food court were long and constant. The food was plentiful but low quality. On other cruises we have taken, there were nightly shows , shown at two times. Here we had an occasional comedy hour usually at 11PM. This will be my last carnival cruise. On a positive note, the wait staff and room stuarts were friendly and accommodating

I was on that ship for that cruise. We are retired and LOVED it!!! There were shows every night in the theater, usually presented twice, Dive-In movies by the pool, great children's programs, and great food in the MDR. The Lido buffets are always crowded at lunch time, but there were lots of options. The ship was full with about 1000 kids on board, but the crew kept everything clean and fun! We also cruise Celebrity, but comer back to Carnival to have some fun. Hopefully you will find a vacation that fits your needs. Carnival fits ours.
