Review summary

This 5 night getaway was the perfect way to de-stress after the Black Friday madness

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Very fast and not like the TSA at the airport

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
The crew in the Destiny dining room deserves 6 Stars. Very professional and attentive. Honorable mention to I Made, Kailash and Harishchandra. #WooWoo

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Our #1 activity was eating. We also enjoyed the Casino, Rex and the Art Auction.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
We really enjoyed the comedians, Lu-Lu and the Carnival Quest. I believe that after 11pm, the DJ's should allowed to play more rated 'R' music. Still loved our St. Vincent DJ.

Children's Programs

No kids in our group

Service and Staff

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
It took me two days to figure out how to navigate from E7 to the Destiny dining room. Maybe it was the rum :-)

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Comfortable cabin that was always clean and well stocked with towels, soap, shampoo, etc... The design of the 'Cozy Shower' needs to be modified so that bathroom floor won't get wet with every shower. Install longer, weighted shower curtains or raise it up a little higher.

Ship tip

Book your shore excursions independently. Viator.com offered a Grand Cayman Rum Distillery and Seven Mile Beach tour for $37/person; while Carnival had it for $59/person. https://www.viator.com/tours/Cayman-Islands/Cayman-Islands-Rum-Distillery-and-Brewery-Tour-plus-Seven-Mile-Beach/d31-8717P10
