Review summary

Didn’t know what to expect but it was super relaxing and worth the money. Came back home and are already looking at more cruises to book. The cruise director and crew were great! The cleanliness was what impressed me. The casino kept me busy. Had a blast! The shows were entertaining and the comics were actually funny. Kid zone was great for my 5 year old. He had a blast ! The serenity spa and gym were clean and kept me going for more. Carnival has me hooked. Now we are looking for more cruises to take with in the next few months.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

You dropped a paper on the floor and there was someone with a broom to pick it up 5 seconds later. It was super clean.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

I thought interior meant cheap and horrible but, our room had enough space for our little family of three. Even without a view we had a great time.

Ship tip

Save your money on the paying at the restaurants on board. The free food is just as good!!!!!! Buffet had great food as well as the Vista restaurant.

Had to be out of the room by 0830 didnt get off the ship until 1030 and didn’t get off the ship until 10:30. Had to wait in the buffet area and with everyone trying to get out and go home it was rough!
