Review summary

They cruise over all was fun and very enjoyable. I did try to postpone the cruise because of the hurricanes, but carnival would not let me do that. So my sister and I did go on the cruise. And I'm glad we did,, even though we only booked this cruise to go to the grand Turks, and because of the hurricanes that was taken from us. I am not blaming the cruise lines for missing Turks but I am upset that they wouldn't let me postpone this cruise till we could go there ..

Embarkation

It was terrible, I don't know why they give you times for you to be there, and then you still have to stand in line for hours.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

I think this ship is an older ship, we saw several little places of damage ,,as in like light fixtures and the benches in the dining rooms were a little scratched up ,,, The ship was very clean

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Our cabin was very clean, clean towels, even though my sister and I make our beds ,,the cabin Stewart came in every day and did the same ,,

Ship tip

There is not enough plug-ins or hooks to hang things in your cabin. We plan on taking magnetic hooks next time so we can hang up our bathing suit and towels so they will dry for the next time we need them

Nassau, Bahamas

3 out of 5

This is the second time I've been to Nassau a board a carnival cruise, I think next time if we go there I will stay on ship not impressed with Nassau. And everybody bombarding you when you get off the ship, trying to get you to take their taxi,,a tour or whatever
