Review summary

We have cruised many times before and Carnival is our least favorite line. But beggars can't be choosy, this vacation was paid for by my mother-in-law.  The staff were are very friendly and accommodating.  The food was average but I didn't expect it to be outstanding so it met my expectations. Getting on and off the ship was a smooth process albeit a bit slow.  Many activities through out the ship for all taste. We especially like the sport bar  to watch the both the Stanley cup and NBA finals.  A lot of beer choices and liquor choices. The ship DJ was awesome and knew the songs that would get people to dance. Port of calls I had been to before so all was good there.

I did the ship excursion to an all inclusive island worth the money. Others hired a driver and went to a zip line adventure park, $100 for the round trip drive and sight seeing and $40 for zip-line adventure park entry per person, they shot a movie there

I really like celebrity. We did a transatlantic in Oct and I loved it. I've never had any problems with carnival though either.... Any other suggestions on who to try next??!

I don't understand the 3 stars, other than you don't like Carnival seems like you had a grand time.

Just wondering which cruise lines you prefer? We've cruised NCL but it's been many years ago.
