Review summary

I would do it again. I would like to spend more time on the other areas of the island next time though.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

Getting on this ship was the most efficient of all the Carnival cruises that I have been on. The slowest part was the very beginning at the metal detectors. (People not taking everything out of their pockets 🙄)

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

Most of the food was good. Needed a little more variety though.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

Entertainment

5 out of 5

Comedy and karaoke. Sometimes at the same time. The stage shows were awesome too. I really enjoyed the outdoor movies as well.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

The wait staff and the cabin stewards were awesome. They kept the tables and the rooms clean. I have to give an extra shout out to Adi and the crew. He helped me with getting our luggage in the room while my other family members were still on Lido staring out the window. (Lol) Plus, they helped to make my Aunt and Uncle 's first cruise a good experience.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

This was the first time I ever had a balcony room. It will not be the last. It was so amazing to watch the sun rise across the water every morning.

Ship tip

Try to attend the shows- the Broadway type, the comedy, the karaoke, and the singing. There were so many talented performers on this ship.

King's Wharf, Bermuda

This island isn't very big, but it has alot to do. I didn't get bored. I even did a last minute excursion. I recommend the Glass Bottom Boat and Snorkeling tour.

Didn't get to see much of Norfolk. It was raining when we got there on Saturday and when we left the next Saturday.

We were on this same cruise & had a wonderful time! Bermuda was so beautiful! The first day in port we went to Snorkel park Beach & the second day we took the fairy boat over to Hamilton & did the walking tour from town hall with the town crier. It was very informative! But definitely bring walking shoes! The last day in Port we just stayed close to the ship & went to the Clock tower mall. They had some great shops! I'm glad you had a great cruise! 🛳
