Living quarters? Were you on a submarine or something?

This is why you research the ship before you actually go don't assume "Oh it's carnival it's going to be the same as every other ship" not the case each ship is unique whether you notice it or not.

Only the Conquest class if ships had adult-only pools (in the aft) but that changed this year. And Paradise did not have one to begin with. Did you do your homework? Paradise us a smaller, older ship. Try a larger class.

Pre honeymoon? I've been on 20. Guess I'm a pre honeymoon expert.
