Review summary

Overall I had a great time. Second time on this ship, great size and plenty of fun. The entertainment was wonderful and met a lot of people aboard. I wish carnival would change up with the items they sell, update technology and on sea days all food spots should be open until at least 10 and more activities. While being on the ship on sea days can be a pain. It’s so many people and you can feel like you just going in circles.

Service and Staff

Seems like most the hardworking people on the ship were so on edge, frustrated and over worked. Dinning room waiter seem to be aggravated every night.

Cabin / Stateroom

Standard size for interior, they can use more bacteria fighting cleaning products and dust a little more. I always bring 2 containers of Lysol wipes with me and I clean the best I can from top to bottom. The phone always have guck and food all over every time I cruise it’s kinda crazy. I think they don’t have enough time between cruises to really get the rooms clean.

Ship tip

The early birds gets the worms! Up early and enjoy every minute.

I don’t know what’s going on, I believe carnival is just behind on technology. Seems like they just can’t get a system going at this port.
