Review summary

We have been traveling with Carnival for over 40 years. We decided it was our last time using them. The Quality of the food that is included in your package has gone down by quite a bit. The dinner selections have been the same for years and very boring . It seems that one of the only ways to get any food of any quality is to pay extra for the NOT INCLUDED restaurants. Guys burgers was xlnt .. as was the Blue Iguana mexican taco/burrito bar... the Ship is nice. The rooms were small. The ports ok except you get very limited time in CABO . All in all we are done with Carnival. But it is a great value especially if you have kids ...

Ship Quality

the only thing lacking was the traditional large ATRIUM which was always a nice touch

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5

it was much smaller than any of the other carnival ships we have sailed. it was a connecting room if you need that . And the Balconys can be opened up to join both rooms . The bathroom smelled like urine the entire voyage.
