This was our first cruise. We were celebrating our 30th wedding anniversary as well as my wife’s 50th birthday. I felt very pampered, very relaxed and really enjoyed our trip. Weill are already planning our next cruise. Thank you, Carnival and the Crew of the Splendor.
Embarkation
5 out of 5
Although there were several hundred people trying to do the same thing, Carnival did a great job getting everyone checked in and going with very little effort on our part.

Ship Quality
5 out of 5
The layout of the ship (once I figured it out) was well thought out. Our stateroom steward Joseph and his assistant were so awesome. They learned our names quickly and called us by our name. They took care of our every need. Kept our room spotless even when we left it a mess. Anything I needed, I just asked, and they took care of it. The custodial staff of the ship were wonderful as well. It was as if my grandma was the one cleaning.
Pepe’ our tour guide on this excursion was so hilarious. He would make jokes, do question and guess (answer) things between stops and at the different tequila factories we visited. He made it a lot of fun. Our bus driver was an extremely well trained driver with really good knowledge of his bus as well as the roads he was driving on. This by far was my favorite port of call.
Be sure to do the Carnival review, carnival does not see these reviews. Glad you had a great time, Happy Anniversary and a Happy Birthday to your beautiful other half.
Nice review! Glad you enjoyed your cruise - the Splendor is our favorite ship in Carnival's fleet. Happy Belated Anniversary to you both and Happy Belated Birthday to your wife.
