Review summary

I would of liked to enjoy relaxing by the pool and to get some sleep. I enjoyed the excursions and meeting new people. I did not enjoy paying a lot of money to have no relaxed sleep.

Embarkation

3 out of 5
Sitting in a waiting area not knowing what was going on there was not much direction told nor communication. Could not hear anything due to noise of when to go on the ship or where to go.

I don't think he wanted to sleep by the pool but in his room which was above a disco. The tip is a good one and one my brother told me when booking the room. Look above and below you on the deck plans and don't be above or below a public space.

Got that right randyman. Or at least you don't try to sleep where there is hairy leg contests, kids having fun or loud music. No listed past cruises???

Who in there right mind would try and sleep by the pool. Did you not know about serenity deck. Common sense tells you if you want to sleep on vacation don't go on a cruise.

Perhaps you should have tried taking a nap in your cabin instead....withbthe PA volume off.

In my opinion, expecting to sleep next to the pool on a Carnival cruise is an unrealistic expectation. Just too much going on, even in the adults only section.
