Review summary

For our first cruise, this was just 5 days in heaven! We had so much fun on and off the ship. I really don't know what else to say...I have no idea why there is 150 character minimum.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

Much smoother than I anticipated

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

I would give the food 5 stars, but I wasn't particularly impressed with anything except the Fantasy Dining room (which we ate dinner in almost every night). The Fantasy Dining Room was gourmet food with wonderful service. The breakfast buffet was less than mediocre but we were able to get great breakfast burritos from the Blue Iguana Cantina. The Guy Fieri's Burger joint was kind of a joke...they just handed you a cheeseburger & fries and you had to assemble your own burger.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

OMG. The activities were perfect. You could stay as busy or not busy as you wanted.

Entertainment

5 out of 5

The musicians, DJs, and performers on the ship were thoroughly enjoyable. Carnival really went above and beyond finding great talent.

Children's Programs

We don't have children
