Review summary

Improved food and service at all levels. Very pleased overall. Dining experience in main dining room was very good. Especially liked being able to order meals like filet and lobster for $20.00. Well worth the money for a couple of special meals without having to go to the specialty restaurant for a $35.00 charge per person.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

Hard to believe I'm saying this about a Carnival cruise, because we have been disappointed in the past, but the food and dining was very much improved.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

Same as always; nothing seems to change to much.

Entertainment

3 out of 5

Good, but not great.

Children's Programs

5 out of 5

Can't really comment since we didn't have a young child in any programs; but I'm sure they had fun and were well taken care of based on past experience.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Very pleased with cabin service and meal service; we chose anytime dining for dinner, but requested the same waiters every night. It really was great service.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

For an older ship; very well maintained.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5

Cabin was fine; a little dated. The bed was worn out; kind of sagging in the middle and woke up each day with a sore back. Small T.V. not in a great viewing position and the remote was almost useless. I would expect for for a suite.
