Carnival Paradise isn’t a huge ship, but it is a Fun ship! Just relax and have a good time! If you do not have fun, it’s probably your own fault.
Embarkation

Ship experiences
Food and Dining
4 out of 5
They were all very good. We ate in the dining room for dinner about half the time. There are lots of lunch options and always pizza (very thin, fold your slice in half!) Also, I purchased the soda package for everyone in our group, but I probably would’ve saved money not doing this. There is always water, tea, coffee, lemonade, and milk. There are also 3 juice choices every morning. To get money’s worth kids would’ve had to drink atleast 2 or 3 sodas and adults like 4 or 5 a day. Also remember that if you are a soda drinker each person can take 1 12 pack of soda on embarkation day, as well a 1 bottle of wine or champagne. Live and learn! :)

All very clean.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
Regular staterooms are never huge, but the space was very well used. Our room stewards were amazing!
Lots of shopping and places to eat and drink here! We did the dolphin swim, at Dolphin Cove in Chankanaab, which my kids all loved! There was a buffet with unlimited food and drinks. There was a snorkeling area and sea lion show. There was also zip lining and a swimming pool with a swim up bar. The beach at Chankanaab is not really a great beach, but there is plenty else to do here!
