Good, but below expectations at times
Carnival Paradise Cruise Review to Caribbean - Western

Review summary
The ship itself was kept clean for the most part although at times the cleaning in the buffet was a bit slow. The service for the cabin was good, but seemed a bit slower than what I have experienced on other Carnival ships. The main dining room food was good and at times very good. The service in the dining room was not consistent. Some nights it was excellent and other nights it was average at best. The comedy club was very comfortable and a good size for this ship. The comedians put on entertaining shows. The singers/dancers were below average. The dancing was not well synchronized and the singing was at times beyond the capabilities of the singers, or they tried to get too fancy which detracted from the performance. The weather was poor and the seas were rough, but that was beyond the control of Carnival.
