Review summary

My wife and I were very pleased with the service of the Carnival staff. Everybody was courteous and easy to deal with. The food was great. Entertainment was very good. We were waitlisted for anytime dining, but had to settle for the late dining time. We would have preferred the earlier time, because the more family oriented entertainment (particularly the comedy acts), is only available in the earlier evening. We don't care for the vulgarity used in the late comedy acts. We do enjoy shopping in the gift stores, and particularly enjoyed the different sales that went on.  Our stateroom was clean and pleasant, and the bed was very comfortable. Disembarkation was handled really well. We carried our luggage on, and found this to be the quickest we ever got off a ship.  Overall we had a great time and would certainly consider Carnival again.

Ship tip

Go to the children's pool area if you want a more quiet experience for sun bathing. Plus there are more seats available. Enjoy the ice cream machines and availability of food.

Thanks for posting your first review here on the Website. I would not have been happy to have late seating.  Once we booked a last minute cruise on Carnival and were assigned late seating.  We hated it.  We complained until they switched us after two days to early seating.  We like My Time Dining the best.
