Review summary

The dinners were the high lite of most or our days. The excursions were well planned and most enjoyable. Really liked the tendering to the ports on two occasions. It was an excursion by themselves!

More balcony rooms or at least where the other outside cabins could listen to the ocean when we go to bed. Sheet shooting of the aft area toward the sea would be great. A zip line would be a activity that some us love to do, when we can have a nice one to try.

I would recommend this cruise line and its employees to any fried or family.

I never got my bill for my room expenses. I would like that. I checked the mail box and under the door. NO LIST OF PURCHASE ON MY CABIN CARD.

Seemed like the staff did a good job on keeping the ship clean.

Cabin / Stateroom

It seemed to have extra room for wheel chairs and the shower was a treat for us. Like the layout. Our beds keep pulling apart, not good.

Skeet shooting would be nice but someone would accuse Carnival of polluting the oceans with lead and poisoning the fish.

How about Skeet shooting from a zip line?! Now that's an activity. One time in Hawaii there was a pod of whales hanging out between the ship and shore. You could ride the tender back and forth for a great show.

They usually put it under the door about 3am last night or in your mailbox. I usually look on the Carnival Hub from time to time to keep tabs on my spending! Or go night before (late works well) and ask for printout of charges to check if any errors. If you add some drinks or gifts last night, you can just add that on yourself.
