Overall, very good. The Gold Pearl dining room was great. The buffet on the Lido deck was good, though uneven. Tandori bar was really good.

Ports of call

Puerto Vallarta, Mexico

5 out of 5
We really like PV.
Don't Miss: Zip lines, drinks on the beach.

Cabo San Lucas, Mexico

3 out of 5
We did the coastal tour, and that was not worth the money. Since we only had one day at Cabo, we didn't get a chance to experience much. I wouldn't buy any of the ship's tours--too expensive

Pros: Entertainment (especially Issac and the rock review), food, the room, time ashore, staff helpfullness

Cons: Too much emphasis on shopping, too many kids, pool areas too crowded, drink prices high

Recommends Carnival Splendor? Yes!
