Review summary

It was great to get back to cruising. We missed 3 years waiting for them to drop mandates. My teenagers loved it and were so excited to get back to it. We have three cruises booked for Carnival. I hope Carnival never does away with the dream class ships. The ships are our favorite. It felt like a completely normal cruise. It's exactly what we wanted!

The staff is always great and very friendly.

Ship Quality

Although it's getting older it is in really great shape. We have two more cruises planned on this ship.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5

It was a balcony cabin so that part is nice. Like most cruise ship cabins they are small especially for four people.

Ports of call

Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas
