Review summary
The Carnival Magic is a fantastic ship. Never felt the ship was over crowded. Never felt the wait was to long for the dining room. Plenty of food options. Some of the best food I’ve had while cruising post Covid. Bermuda is a bucket list destination for some reason it wouldn’t pop up to let me review it. So much to do in Bermuda. Very safe and the locals are some of the friendliest people I’ve ever met. Oh yeah since everyone likes to announce when they get sick on a cruise now. Neither my wife or I got sick. Nor did the 7 other people we knew on the cruise.Embarkation
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
Prime Steakhouse
This was the most disappointing steak I’ve had from the steakhouse. Steak was cooked perfect, but lacked the flavor. The rest of the food we had was fantastic.
Pizzeria del Capitano
The pizza was always good and hot. This is one of the few places they did have a line and felt a little slow. All depends on how many slices the people in front of you are getting.
Lido Marketplace
Never found the lines to be long.
Cucina Del Capitano
Ate lunch here and it was very good
Guy's Burger Joint
Amazing and delicious as always!
Onboard Activities
Ropes Course
I went around a few times it was fun and challenging. Our friends kids probably went around 20+ times.
Beach Pool
Both pools were nice. We don’t usually spend a lot of time at the pools onboard cruise ships, but we had a good time hanging out on this one. Busy at times, but not to bad.
Entertainment
Spotlight Lounge
This was a good place for the comedy shows. The other carnivals shops I’ve been on if you’re not early you won’t find a seat. This was never an issue on the Magic.
Seaside Theater
Enjoyed sitting in the pool watching movies on the big screen.

Ship tip
Deck 4-5 are good floors to get from one end of the ship to the other. On debarkation day use the aft elevators to get you down to the 4th floor then you will only have to go down one set of stairs.
