Review summary

I enjoy seeing other places in the world and that I can return at another date if I want to.  Grand Cayman is a place I'd definitely go back to.  The boat was too crowded for me.  Next time I'd pick a smaller ship.  The service on this cruise was amazing.  Although I can't say that  booking with Cheap Cruises.  The person that helped Ed Sai was not "helpful" at all.  I would never book with or use Cheap Cruises again.  He added insurance after not explaining the cost and he was extremely hard to contact on other issues like transportation to the airport.

Our steward, Enrique was amazing. He kept our cabin clean and tidy. Always a smile on his face. Although a tip is included in the cruise he deserved and received an extra tip.

Ship tip

Use open dining seating. You can eat when you are ready and often make new friends while sitting next to them at a table.

Get away from the Carnival dock. You can take a cab or just a walk. This island is safe and beautiful.

I think after all is said and done, you'll see that you've paid the same price as if you went through the cruise lines to book.

Can you tell me if it got the fun ship 2.0 upgraded it was scheduled for in March 2016? Did it have Guys Burger, Burrito Bar, punchliner comedy...
