Review summary

Overall this cruise is awesome. 4 days of fun activities preceded and followed by a day of rest and relaxation. I highly recommend it.  The excursions we went on (all through Carnival) we very good except for Scuba diving in Cozumel. Cozumel has some of the best diving in the world and Sand Dollar Sports (who Carnival operates this excursion through) takes us to 2 absolutely disappointing reefs. Our dive master even took us over sand for most of our second dive. What a total waste of time and money. Book it outside of Carnival to get a great experience.

Ship Quality

Decor is really bad. Hopefully they fired the interior design company before they get another ship.

Dark Night Tours did a phenomenal job with the Ultimate Exclusive Zipline and Cave Tubing. Couldn't say enough good things about them!

Mahogany Bay, Roatan, Bay Islands, Honduras

Diving with Anthony's Key Resort made this incredible diving the best! Don't pass up diving here.

George Town, Grand Cayman

Stingray City and the Turtle Farm was very good. Carnival did a horrible job getting us off the ship. Totally disorganized. Lost 45 minutes of our tour because of that.
