Because we waited so long to embark the ship we tried to keep an open mind. Even though we've cruised Carnival before, we were disappointed with this one. Not sure if we want to try another carnival cruise. Children on board were very rude and obnoxious
Embarkation
1 out of 5
Awful, waited for 4 hrs on the pier in the hot sun to get on the carnival magic in Miami

The entertainers in the speciality areas were good, the shows in the theater were nothing special
Children's Programs

They really didn't keep to the schedule of things they said they were doing
Service and Staff
3 out of 5
Guess service staff not friendly or helpful when questions were asked .waiters in dining room weren't all that friendly till the end of the cruise. The room steward was very friendly from day 1.
Ship Quality
3 out of 5
Can't understand why carnival would allow so many smoking areas in this day and age . not very healthy for children to have to go through an entire area of smokers to use the water slides and water area..
Cabin / Stateroom
3 out of 5
Cabin was clean, our cabin was cleaned 2 times a day at our request .the room was extremely noisy all day & night, every day..
Ship tip
Research thoroughly the ship & what it offers to make sure it's what you are looking for .join a facebook group for other people suggestions
What we saw was okay, went on an excursion where we were to swim with the sharks & stingray. The seas were so rough that it should have been cancelled.
