Review summary

Overall i wasn't impressed with this Carnival cruise. I may choose a destination and ship in the future and give them another try.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Embarkation was very easy and very smooth. However, the area where we wait to board the cr is so was freezing cold!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
The Sunset dining room was very clean and the food was good although limited choices. Our waiters were awesome! The magician that came to our table was absolutely amazing! The buffet was awful!

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
In my opinion activities were very limited. Unfortunately it was too cold to use the pools, the shows were lousy and shopping was very expensive and very limited.

Entertainment

1 out of 5
The best entertainment was the karaoke, the DJs at the bars and 2 of the singers at one of the bars. Shows were awful! They need to hire professionals!

Children's Programs

We didn't have kids

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
All the service we received was excellent! Friendly abs professional.

Ship Quality

3 out of 5
I hated the layout! I felt it was a bit difficult to get around. The buffet was a clustered mess.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Cabin was great for an interior. Plenty of space and clean. If a bit cold.

Ship tip

In my honest opinion, don't!

Ports of call

Long Beach (Los Angeles), California

4 out of 5
Port was easy to get to, parking close to the embarkation area.

Catalina Island, California

3 out of 5
It was an ok port. Rented the golf cart for a tour and that was fun but expensive. Shopping ok. It is worth a visit at least once.

Ensenada, Mexico

4 out of 5
We went to the blow hole and market. It was a2 hr ride there and interesting. Shopping was fun as well!

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Very easy and very quick. Take your luggage off with you if you want to get it quickly.
