Review summary

Overall, it was a very good time. The food, ship, crew, entertainment, etc. was all what you would expect if you have been on good cruises before. My only complaint is it was over so fast :)

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Been on 9 cruises and this was the best boarding experience (walked right on) and best muster drill (quick and simple) I’ve ever experienced.

Carnival never fails at making sure there are tons of things to do all the time, this was no exception.

Entertainment

5 out of 5

Children's Programs

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Very friendly staff looking to help wherever they could.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
She is an older ship, but recently updated and very clean. Sensation has that older layout with lots of places to lay out on the deck and eat... something I sometimes miss with the newer ships.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
What you would expect from a size perspective and very clean and good layout.

Ship tip

Get a room on the 7th floor, I felt only a few steps away from dinner, entertainment, etc.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Had some slow down with customs as they only had one agent working, but this wasn’t CruiseLine’s fault, they got us off nice and early.
