Review summary

We had a amazing time. Great week, we would definitely do that cruise again at some point. The cruise is whatever you want it to be. It can be relaxing, or you can party all day and night. You can gamble, drink, or sleep. It’s up to you

Embarkation

5 out of 5
I read so many reviews prior to my trip. What I would say is don’t believe everything you hear. The Carnival Sensation is not run down in my opinion. The staff were all amazing and did everything they could to make our trip memorable. Half Moon Cay was truly amazing, so beautiful. I could spend days there. Stay positive and make the trip what you want it to be and it will the the vacation you cherish forever.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
Guys Hamburgers were my favorite. I was not a fan of the buffets or main dining. The drinks were excellent.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
We went to Serenity and spent time in the hot tubs without kids, or so we thought. They don’t do a great job of keeping under 21 out. We played bingo.

Entertainment

3 out of 5
They need more adult comedy

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
They do a great job taking care of your room. The waiter staff are very slow. Plan on dinner taking two hours.

Excellent job

Cabin / Stateroom

Beds were comfy. We loved the window. The room had enough space. Loved it.

Ship tip

Bring a power strip with you for your room. Pay the extra money for Faster to fun. It is well worth it.

Ports of call

Miami, Florida

3 out of 5
Nothing special

Nassau, Bahamas

4 out of 5
We liked our ATV adventure. It was lots of fun. The food on the beach was the best I had all week. Delicious.

Half Moon Cay, Bahamas (Private Island)

5 out of 5
Absolutely the best. We went snorkeling, which was pretty. Wish it was a longer period of time. We only got to snorkel for 1 hour. Should take you to more than one spot.

Freeport, Grand Bahama Island

3 out of 5
This port was way better than I expected. We just went to the shops by the port but we had fun. Had local food, beers and listened to live music on a beautiful day. Couldn’t ask for more.

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
Super easy. Again Faster to fun made it quick, no crowds.
