Review summary

All around worst cruise I have ever been on...I honestly might not ever cruise again after this experience...also when I called to complain because not only did they make me sick with food poisoning or have the rudest staff in the planet we also got double charged for $300 from carnival that took 5 days to get back on my card causing us to be pretty much broke the rest of our vacation...they offered me $100 on board credit if I book and go on another cruise within the next year...wow...just wow...carnival has really dropped the ball I must say!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

1 out of 5
I got food poisoning from the food on this ship all the cold food was warm or hot and all the hot food was cold...I seriously ate white rice with soy sauce one night because the food wasn't even edible....I lost 30 pounds before I left for this cruise with every intention of gaining 25 pounds...I lost 10....beyond disappointed..also the cheers package is a joke when it comes to trying to get your coffee in the morning...hopefully you don't want to surprise your significant other with coffee in the morning...also regular coffee on the ship was with burnt or clear....a coffee drinkers nightmear is this ship I swear!

Onboard Activities

1 out of 5
Pool was way too small and most of the activities seemed thrown together and boring unlike they used to be..

Entertainment

1 out of 5
I literally used to go to every show on past cruises...I never even sat down in the theater because everyone was flat or boring...I'm pretty sure one singer was wasted...but the comedian we're outstanding!

Children's Programs

1 out of 5
Those kids looked so sad everytime I walked by the facination and ecstasy the kids looked like they were having a blast this was just sad to see...

Service and Staff

1 out of 5
Other than two bartenders Adrian and Allan and the cruise director bk (who we only found on the last day of the cruise unfortunately) the staff was absolutely terrible. Very ill informed and rude.. Most didn't even know English very frustrating!

Ship Quality

1 out of 5
I found dust on a ledge in my cabin that literally was over 6 months old if not more...the rest of the ship was about the same.
