Review summary
Favorite part of the cruise is the food & the staff. The food at the main dinning room at the Elastion Restaurant offer the 3 course meal for the 3 times of the day (brunch, lunch & dinner). Many variety of choices to choose & the preparation of the meals was perfect. We got to met the Team Headwaiter's name, Lizette. She is the sweeties, professional, polite, easy to talk to lady. We were always requesting to seat at her area all the time, she made my birthday with a cute cake and made other waiters to sing me. All of her helper, Gustavo, Brian & Kelvin were very serving to our needs during our meals. They all did a fantastic job & Lizette an extra tip for her awesome personality & professionalism .
Our stateroom steward, Arnold. Was always in a happy, good, friendly, greeting us everyday kind of mood. He serve our needs whenever we needed room service or not. He was always prepared to place a bucket of ice for my mother's insulting to keep cold. Change our towels & made cute arrangement with the towels place on our bed, an elephant & scorpion. We gave him an extra tip of his kind service to us.
Construction was being done near our stateroom every night. Too much noise & drilled occurred, didn't make sleep pleasurable . Were located on Empress Floor, room E158.
The ship wasn't too impress. It needs a remodeling structure. Didn't like the size of the pool, too small of the amount of passengers. The activities wasn't interested to do: Bingo, Casino, Trivia Games. It needs to have more a variety of activities & the ship could have a newer look designed. The only interested entertainment was the live production musical show. They had a great & fun chorographic performing's.

Ship tip
The worker staff were professional, helpful & nice. The ship, I don't recommend sailing with. The design wasn't too admirable, needs a re-modeling, more upgrading, more shopping stores, more entertainment, to do or see & bigger size pool. Wouldn't sail again with Carnival Paradise.
