Carnival Sensation Tips

Bring a Power Strip (surge protector) - You'll probably only have a single 110v outlet in your cabin, bringing a power strip will allow you to charge multiple phones or laptops. *Note: Check with your cruise line if you have questions about what electrical devices are permitted.

use the stairs whenever possible so you can eat as much food as you like and try something new.

Don't miss the open dining area behind the Lido. It's one of our favorite spots on the ship.

Enjoy a sunset from the sports deck!

There is only one 110 outlet in the room, so be prepared!

try things you would not do or eat normally. get involved it will make your cruise great!

Great breakfast at the grill by the pool!

The dining room was empty at lunch time. It was quiet and relaxing.

We had a balcony stateroom on the very back of the ship just under the Serenity deck (21 and over only). Nice and quiet part of the ship! Also convenient to food. Short flight of inside stairs to get to dinner, and then 2 short flights of stairs on the outside to get to the buffet area.

Lido deck is definitely the best place to eat breakfast. Lines may be a little longer but they have a bigger variety of food.

The best tip on this ship is the bar on deck 10 directly underneath the water slide. It's always empty. Also the patio just above the serendity desk is the best place to have an early morning coffee

Take some time to familiarize yourself with the ship the first day so you don't waste time getting lost every time you go somewhere.

Skip the long line at the breakfast buffet or Guy Fieri omelette station...head to the Blue Iguana Cantina for breakfast burritos and zero waiting.

Don't go on any cruises on this ship if the weather is bad at all. They skipped a port due to wind, and we did not get any sort of compensation for missing a day we had planned. It was raining several of the days, and many of their activities are outside, which left us with not much to do.

I WILL NEVER TELL ANYONE ABOUT CARNIVAL AFTER THEY WAY WE ARE TREATED

Don't

1. Buy a lanyard before hand. You can get them at the dollar store rather than having to buy one for $8. per person. Made things so much easier to have one, since most time was spent in a bathing suit.

MOTION SICKNESS PILLS ARE A MUST. AND BRING PEOPLE WHO WILL WANT TO HAVE FUN AND NOT STAY IN THE ROOM ALL DAY.

all perfect!

Bring a dryer if you need to dry your hair. There is not one in the cabins. Bring your water and sodas. They charge for bottled water and sodas. Have your gratuities taken out before the cruise. That is one bill you want have to worry about later. If you have a concern, go to guest services.
